Started with a bit of a Sega Megadrive inspired beat with pure chiptune samples, then started remixing other samples to LoFi-Mat / BitCrush bits, and I ended up having so much fun I even started recording samples left and right, pulled up old chiptune folders I got from libraries of ChipShop Deluxe or even rare samples found by Erik Suhrke (Phlogiston) and Alex / Lexi Mauer.

Mixed it in with some MoonBoy, CRWTH, and Eli Derp bits and pieces, mixed them up with some beat breaks and chops of my own, and even got to record the neighbors across the street playing Banjo with some video gamey birds and waves for the come down.

-Warning!- Mid beat there's loud screamy alien sounds. Be prepared for your ears!

Thanks peeps for your comments. I'll be going around your galleries and be giving listens / comments back. heart

This goes PLACES. I love the FM chiptune at the beginning (and that snare!). Fun, boppy beat and melody. Things start getting a little odd at 1 minute, and continue gloriously from there. From the alien sounds on it's bonkers in the best way. The way you integrate more styles/themes/recordings seems really natural despite the drastic tone changes. I need to learn such magic.
