The, I love CHIPTUNE music Topic
Hello everyone; I know most of you like music, not one kind of music but MUSIC.
I'm going to try to introduce you to chiptune music. I already talked about it a little in a thread where Love fool was remixed in this way:
http://www.jamirotalk.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=7841&highlight=chiptune

What basicaly chiptune is: to make tunes (original or covers) in real time on old computers (C64 Atari and Amiga) or consoles, using those 30years machines to the max. of their capabilities.

Example of what can be done on a C64:

If you don't know what it is: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C64

Covers chiptune style:

On Colecovision, incredible... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colecovision

Chocolate Rain: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=caIBKOztlAo

And many more on: http://www.chiptune.com !

So if you like music; old video games and programming, chiptune music is for you Smile
