Bongo Plano 4

Slow electro plodder done on Nanoloop/Gameboy. The cartridge has very limited synthesis, but it's good fun to make drum sounds on it! Song mode recorded live to mono, with a few edits, a bit of reverb plus mastering done in Ableton.

If you listen closely you might notice a bit of hiss.

Catchy and engaging! Digging the processing variations to this pattern, too.

After years of making chiptune on gameboys in the 2000's I can barley handle listening to it anymore. Your mono NL stuff is making me rethink that. I guess it's not really chiptune since it has an analog engine... The limitations seem fun to play with. Again, I think you have a particular way with sequencers. Cool track.

Oh wow, that's so nice to hear!

Yeah, not really chiptune-y sounds here. The Mono is probably more like a Monotribe with a "proper" sequencer, maybe?
