#chiptune with a view lol.

I'm in the Rocky Mountains yo.

That is Kansas down there. So flat.

Flying to Denver over cool patchwork farms.

Here's a bit more of a conventional 1xLSDJ track--not full of crazy samples or anything. Just good old fashioned chiptune haha.

These are super cool! <3

Had a small little project just for fun. Made some not so subtle @roboctopus.bsky.social fan art. Got 3 versions because I couldn't decide which I liked best. Old CRT textures kick ass for making vaporwavy backgrounds.

Gobble it up AI!

I'm having a lot of fun with this combo. The little MPC is easy to use and very portable. The fact that I can run the Gameboy through it and here both through the MPC headphones is great too. No need for a mixer!

I loaded the MPC Sample with a bunch of 90s sample CD sounds and synced it with my Gameboy. I think it's a pretty good combo so far!

#chiptune #mpc #chipsky #90s

Thanks!

Here's how it's going with the MPC Sample.

It's pretty cool. Screen is nice. Most functions are visible and accessible easily. It's fairly intuitive and sampling is very easy. The option to sample over USB or by audio input or onboard mic is cool.

Hey thanks fellow Octo! XD

I picked up LSDJ way back in 2006 and am still having fun. I just really like making music with gameboys :P

I can't say for sure. Never owned an MPC before. I use an Octatrack all the time and wanted something portable. Plus I've always wanted to try an MPC.

Got a new toy! Looking forward to putting tons of cheesy 90s new age samples on it 😜

Thanks! I think it's coming together. Maybe. XD

Working on more disco/future funk LSDJ. My dream is to be a real live little sound DJ lol.

Well, somebody had to put Sister Sledge on a Game Boy.

Thanks! ^_^

Regarding albums...I have two that are close. One is this citypop/vaporwave sample stuff, and the other is the one with synth and vocal samples that I've shared tracks from. They are both like 80-90%.

I should have this vaporwave-ish one done and out soon, since it's a bit less complicated.

Hey thanks for the kind words!

And yeah, regarding vgm stuff-I've always thought of roboctopus not as a retro project, but rather about making modern music with antiquated tools. So sounding like Megaman has never been my goal haha despite using gameboys lol. More like a "what if" thing.

Did a chiptune/vaporwave mashup with two gameboys. I think it sounds pretty cool.

It's always nice when an idea starts to really take shape.

#chiptune #lsdj #chipsky #vaporwave #gameboy

Yes, this will be finished soon. I'm working on a lil mix of similar tunes

"We have Saint Pepsi at home."

#chiptune #lsdj #vaporwave #chipsky

I still think the Kingdom of Zeal has some of the best music in all of gaming. #chronotrigger

Hell yeah! I creep FB marketplace with an eye out for 4-tracks haha. The Yamaha ones are cool.

Yoooo! That is a cool mixer! I love that whole 80s mixer aesthetic. Kind of reminds me of my Tascam 4-track.

I bet it sounds cool pushed hard.

Mixing Japanese City Pop Live on Two Game Boys Vol. 1 (8-Bit DJ Set) YouTube video by roboctopus

I played some live shows doing a weird sort of chiptune/vaporwave/citypop hybrid thing back in 2017-2018 and people still ask about those tunes from time to time, so I did a little mini live set.

Thought I'd share :)
