YouTube video by Disposable Planet WeeklyBeats WEEK 8 - Highway 5 - M8 Tracker

Here’s an old WeeklyBeat that made it into one of my albums. Highway 5 is a chill, ethereal house track with a chippy, demoscene vibe. Used a pseudodelay with some oscillator switching in table and a modified pulse width modulated lead. #m8tracker #chiptune youtu.be/8wc54jPZaXE

The Color of Television, by Disposable Planet 14 track album

Halloween eve and we have an announcement, but on who, it's a mystery. You've heard her bleepbloops coming from the shadows. There's lore about the legendary chiptune empire she built but it would be impossible to feel her greatest glitches, unless: Please welcome Muzak Efron to Boston Bitdown!

This is shaping up to be one hell of a festival!

Hot Ziggity! It’s Gosh Diggity! Chicago’s chiptune astronauts traveling to Boston via rocketship! This midwest kitchen techno trio is chiptune’s gift to the world. Listen to Gosh Diggity’s summer LP, “Good Luck! Have Fun” and buy your early bird 4 day passes to BOSTON BITDOWN 2!

The AYN Thor Could Be The Perfect Handheld For DS Emulation - First Impressions - Steam Deck HQ I have been playing around with the AYN Thor for a couple of days now, and I feel it could truly be the perfect handheld for DS emulation, and quite possibly, my favorite Android handheld overall.

Boston Bitdown 2 Chiptune, vgm, & nerdcore fest The performer Watch Out For Snakes plays keytair

Ready for a night ride? Let Snakes take the wheel. This 8-bit synthwave warlock brings out the sexy, brooding, neon to your heart. This Atlanta boy is slithering up to Boston Bitdown equipped with his ruby keytar & jean jacket. Sit back and let the smokey synth take over.

The Miyoo Mini Flip feels like stepping into a time machine. It is basically a clamshell version of the amazing little Miyoo Mini, and it's compatible with OnionOS (microSD cards are swappable between the two). Full review: youtu.be/WYeC5WJv_zg

This little guy looks awesome. I’m highly tempted to get one for one of my friend’s kids and put all the classics on it with MinUI. I wonder if any of the custom operating systems have like a “Kids mode” so they can’t screw up retro arch

Wood Chip Fest 2026 was just announced! Taking place in the Murder Forest of Ringsted, Denmark this chiptune festival is an absolute blast! In addition to great chip music from around the world, the festival also features a retro gaming setup with all the classics! #chiptune #chipsky #woodchipfest

Boston Bitdown 2 Chiptune, VGM & Nerdcore fest Image of three women in dresses sitting and leaning together Text under reads "Goof Goblin"

Making one last stop delivering their 2nd EP tour, Goof Goblin: Enter the Pizza Verse, these queer, trans, rage-filled Brooklyn Game Girlies are coming to Boston Bitdown to stir carnage and look hot! They're punk, nu-metal, and most importantly #CHIPTUNE!
Get hype for GOOF GOBLIN!

Ad for Boston Bitdown 2 - Chiptune, vgm, & nerdcore fest with an image blurred photo of an artist playing gameboy captioned Boy Without Batteries

Let’s get this Boston Bitdown 2 lineup started. It’s Boy Without Batteries! From the depths of the Florida swamp, Boy Without Batteries is back and he's bringing the heat with him. Armed with a .45 caliber Gameboy, this Florida man knows how to rip a chip AND wrestle a gator! #BostonBItdown #LSDJ

Excellent and well thought out review! I am very interested in one of these and your video answered all my questions. I’ve never set up an android handheld before I just have a Miyoo + I use for travel. Might very well have convinced me!

Bass solo! #m8tracker #chiptune

putting the call out to #chiptune bsky

I need your tips on who is actively pushing chiptune forward right now

particularly interested in newer / emerging artists, as well as women, LGBTQ+, and BIPOC artists

An aggressive metal lead guitar patch for M8 Tracker. Wavsynth engine with a little PWM and a lot of chorus. Deep fried with a little POST:AD distortion. The trick here is to add a MULT LFO set to RANDOM with a frequency of one 16th note to create a guitar flatpicking sound in phrase. #m8tracker

It’s also possible to make PWM patches with the Macrosynth and the FMsynth on the M8 Tracker. Maybe I’ll post about this in the future.

My go to pulse width modulation lead patch in the M8 Tracker Wavsynth engine. It’s all about setting an LFO to WARP and the SIZE to maximum for the smoothest PWM. The secret sauce is setting an additional LFO to add some MULT as a little extra bite. From my tune, EMERGENCE (Ratz Mix). #m8tracker

Awesome! Congrats!

Don’t sleep on the M8 Tracker’s Struck Drum synth, found in the Macrosynth synth engine. With settings like the ones below you can easily play smooth, eerie and nuanced melodies by drawing out the notes of the struck drum and making them sound more like a wind instrument then percussion. #m8tracker
