Short Music For Short People compilation, Syntax short song comp, You Suffer, etc). It feels absurd saying this as someone who is notorious for creating extended length tracks lol.
I don't think there's any official policing on it, but I just thought I'd create this thread so people who make very short tracks can chime in and feel just as legitimate as those who write longer songs 
no a minute is fine

Gameboy Micro running custom software called Looper Advance written by chr15m. The Gameboy plays loops and beats into a Raspberry Pi running a custom Pure Data mixer patch which adds FX that we designed by hand. We also use a piece of custom handheld hardware called Hardhat from bzzt.studio to play breakbeats. This is a hardware Impulse Tracker module and the IT files are procedurally generated. The Gameboy and the Hardhat both send a CV sync pulse which goes into the Raspberry Pi and keeps everything in time. A Commodore 64 keyboard is used to play synth sounds by hand and these are looped in time with the beats coming from the Gameboy Advance and Hardhat.
