Oh! You're absolutely right! They were even at @bostonbitdown.bsky.social and everything, totally spaced on that! -Adam
planning for the next little while! if you’d like to chat about your ideas, look into my form!
Holy shit, 8bp is still putting out releases?! -Adam
Searchable and followable lists? On MY social media platform? It's more likely than you think.
Some folks I know are still out there killing it:
swedishcolumbia.bandcamp.com
datafruits.bandcamp.com
ravestationrecords.bandcamp.com
infloresce.bandcamp.com
battleofthebits.bandcamp.com
Also the STAFFcirc compilations are great sampler packs: sexytoadsandfrogsfriendcircle.bandcamp.com
Adam: It feels like the great era of netlabels has passed us by. There was a time where most local scenes had some kind of netlabel they went thru to get stuff out to folks & now? Who knows! But we'd like to knows! If you run a chiptune/digital fusion/old synth & computer music label, hit us up!
We'd also like to welcome @zeelatunes.bsky.social to the CM team! Zee will be helping us curate our monthly youtube playlists. Y'all should follow Zee and subscribe to them on youtube! www.youtube.com/@ZeelaTunes
Howdy chipfam! We're launching a new CM endeavor, our Chiptune Monthly YouTube channel! For now it will be hosting monthly playlists of all things chiptune happening on YouTube, but we have some ideas for ways we can use the channel for other stuff in the future! www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...
Remember, if you've got any upcoming chiptune/digifu/weird old synth releases, upcoming live shows, or cool chiptune or chiptune-adjacent projects you want us to tell people about for you, all our contact info is over at chiptunemonthly.carrd.co

okay I made a neocities

It's pretty much links and my discog (also links) but it'll be nice to have something more static than social media
Starting today, we will only be publishing new album & show promotions if you pay us. Because this community is all about the "retro," we're "retro"actively applying this to all previous newsletter promotions. If we promoted you and you didn't send us your info, you actually owe us double. Thanks!

#ChipNomad v0.1.0b is out! All music making and sound design feature are complete now.
ChipNomad is an LSDJ-style #chiptune tracker for handheld consoles and desktops. Currently supports AY-3-8910/YM2149F chips.
Thank you for sharing the news!
github.com/Megus/chipno...
And as a reminder - we have this hosted on Patreon exclusively because they have infrastructure for newsletters and Discord integration (if we ever make one). We're not charging for Chiptune Monthly, we're not paywalling it, they're just the easiest platform to use.
Help us help you help the scene!
Our reporting is inherently biased due to being based in the US East Coast. We don't want to just talk about the stuff we're involved in and our group of friends! We search out what we can, but the #1 way to help us tell people about the world of chiptunes that they're missing is submissions!
If you wanted to do one thing to help us help you, please tell any of your chiptune friends who are releasing an album, performing live, organizing a festival, throwing a game jam, programming new trackers or are in any other way contributing to keeping this community alive worldwide to let us know!
This is probably not a thing we want to, like, actively report on, but it is good to have closure. -Adam
TIME TO ANNOUNCE The Chiptune Webring! After coming home from #MAGFest and talking with friends, I thought "why not combine my love for coding & chiptune into something useful?" If you're interested and love #chiptune of all kinds, please feel free to join! sephlow.net/chiptune #neocities #indieweb
