Hey everyone,
I'm wanting to showcase a tune from the soundtrack of my new game Magic Dragon Fantasy: Story.
The soundtrack just went live on Steam and is available to download and listen to now!
I've used Reaper Media for my DAW and I use Tweakbench Triforce VST for the soundfont.
It's a rather simple soundtrack by design, everything is 120bpm and follows a strict measure rule so that other sounds in the game (item unlock, hurt warning) sound at the same pace and match in rhythm.
I've took my time and worked hard to assemble this collection for the atmosphere of the game, I feel it is very fitting and definitely matches the vibe, and I had fun composing it.
Check it out and let me know what you think!
Enjoy!

I made an FM sequencer for Genesis using Claude. I'm not a musician and can't code, but always liked Yamaha FM synths and the Genesis uses the same sound chip... so I got curious if I could make something approachable and fun to play, with the ability to live edit per-step. See the readme for controls.

Top Music

So, a while back, I was contracted to make a dynamic music system for a game that ended up getting cancelled. By dynamic music system I mean one of those things where the music, say, might get more intense automatically when you're in combat, etc. So what I ended up doing was writing this whole thing that uses emulated YMF262, Pokey, SID, and a couple others in an ensemble to generate infinitely varied music based on figures, harmonic and variation rules, etc. that I programmed in. I have been running it on this 24/7 stream at https://www.youtube.com/live/sPtOkrvGgTU where it is just live-synthesizing stuff all the time.

Sometimes it gets in a really, really catchy groove for a minute... and other times you get total stinkers. I think it's pretty fun though. Check it out and tell me what you think!

little chiptune i am working on.

I love the sound of the SID chip, and this is where that obsession has taken me so far.

I've been making Fentwave, a synth for the Commodore 64. It runs on a real C64, with 64 factory presets, MIDI Learn, and patch saving/loading. I also put an emulator on the website so you can have a play without needing the hardware:

This is the tape-loader demo. I got a little carried away giving the loading screen its own moment too.

I'm also working on a MIDI cartridge and case. Those are still designs in progress.

Figured some people here might enjoy messing with it. Would love to hear what you make with it, or what you'd want from a C64 synth.

Just barely getting started, haven't even used a DAW let alone a tracker before, and just wanted to know more about the options. I've looked into trackers and it seems that the currently updated ones are:

• MilkyTracker
• SchismTracker
• Dn-Famitracker
• Furnace Tracker
• OpenMPT
• Qtractor
• Renoise (pay to use)

Prototracker can be an honorable mention but it looks more niche than I might like but feel free to convince me otherwise.

There's obviously more but these are the ones I've seen when searching around on AlternativeTo and elsewhere.

I'm using Linux but I can get stuff like Dn-Famitracker working if I need to with WINE.

Would like some advice on this if anyone is willing to share.

P.S. A subreddit wiki of resources such as tools to make and places to share or find would be nice.

Was messing around with making glitch music using LSDJ on the Game Boy and feel like I got some interesting results. I don't think I've really seen too many examples online of folks using LSDJ in more experimental ways so I figured why not try it out some.

(added 909 kick in Ableton afterwards)

I wanna say it's an 80s, possibly 90s NES game by a Japanese developer, but I've completely forgotten which because I've never actually played it.

I tried my best to replay the melody, but the tempo is not right.

Made with LSDJ and some inspiration from the Green Day album, Dookie. I hope you enjoy this just as I did making it.

Hey everyone!

I've been working on a small indie game music pack called "Pixel Quest - Retro Game Music Pack", featuring 10 original tracks inspired by classic retro/16-bit games.

The pack includes music for different situations, such as:

• Main menu
• Exploration and adventure
• Forests and dungeons
• Regular battles and boss fights
• Chase / danger
• Shops and safe areas
• Victory and game over

The tracks are around 1–1.5 minutes long and are designed to fit different moments in a game.

I'm a small creator trying to get my work out there, so I'd really appreciate it if any indie developers here gave it a listen. I'd also love feedback on the music and whether you think it would fit your projects.

You can check it out here: https://wnannestad.itch.io/pixelquest

Thanks for checking it out!

Well hello there! I made this back in 2019 based on a song from the year before, which I will link below. I must confess this is not a TRUE chiptune as some of my other work is--this touched FL Studio briefly--but I think you will still enjoy.

This the chiptune remix, as I said. Here is the original: https://youtu.be/KsIyh6UXcuE?is=U9-z5HrPsOunzE1a

Part II of a II part EP project.

I've been making these for many years. Inspired by my childhood gaming memories mixed with my current musical tastes. So not exactly pure chip music, but heavily incorporated by it. It's quite a ride, and it's by no means for everyone. But... It might be just for you. Sharing because of the lack of audience for this type of music.

The trifecta is complete

First time experimenting with making a track using just the Game Boy, NES, and Polyend Tracker.
All the sounds came from the consoles, with the Polyend Tracker handling the sequencing and sampling the game consoles. Used midines on the nes and GB Poly 4 on the Game Boy and every sound in the song was sourced from the Nintendo or Gameboy.
Not sure if I’d call it chiptune, electro house, or somewhere in between, but I’ve been having a lot of fun experimenting with this setup.
Here’s a clip!

another LSDJ tune for the contest! this time the theme is ~Samhainophobia~
