James-M Posted May 26, 2008 Report Share Posted May 26, 2008 (edited) I was at a garden party last night and the DJ hooked up one of the old Nintendos to his gear and started playing all this crazy music. It had drum and bass, but over the top was the 'beeping' sound of the Nintendo. Anyone know if you can download this sort of music? (If you know what I'm even talking about) 'cus it's awesome!

Fixed Pants™ Posted May 26, 2008 Report Share Posted May 26, 2008 I've also been to a bit of a rave where they played some TRIPPY Mario music over some dnb and just generally had mario loops... It's friggin aces. Don't know the exact genre or anything, but give Shitmat a try, he has some whacky music. Such as 'Kiss the spanner and call me C'. Would like to know what it actually is though.

MadManMike Posted May 26, 2008 Report Share Posted May 26, 2008 Sounds like he had samples on CD or Vinyl, can't see him going to the trouble of hooking up a NES or SNES! Though if he did, that's pretty smart. Same idea as using Vocal Accapellas just with 8-16bit sound effects Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James-M Posted May 26, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2008 Yeh all of these are pretty close, things like 'Chocolate Rain' I download, all decent stuff! I wouldn't mind finding out how to make 8-bit stuff myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomR Posted May 26, 2008 Report Share Posted May 26, 2008 (edited) Theres loads of 'nitendocore' emo bands about, search myspace. Also, a guy called Andre Duracell, he plays loads of old tunes like that using nothing but a drum kit and triggers, pretty amazing and excellent live. http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=UFciaZ9LphY http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=5jk-I_vkEHU&...feature=related Edited May 26, 2008 by TomR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke Rainbird Posted May 26, 2008 Report Share Posted May 26, 2008 There's hundreds of MIDI files about, so it's easy enough to get creative. Did a load (including Mario) a while back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonMack Posted May 26, 2008 Report Share Posted May 26, 2008 There's shit loads of 8bit music around. Check this out http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/8-bit_%28music%29 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadManMike Posted May 26, 2008 Report Share Posted May 26, 2008 I fail at finding 8bit samples... I've found Midi files with drums in, but I just want the synth noise... HALP! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Nick Riviera Posted May 26, 2008 Report Share Posted May 26, 2008 It took 5 hours to arrive at chiptune. blimey. me and a friend dabble with LSDJ sometimes, I've got an Atari, i'm waiting for some blank cartridges so i can get it going too. it's pretty fun, despite all the effort.

mr_malcolm Posted May 28, 2008 Report Share Posted May 28, 2008 i sorta got bored of reading this thread. but check out an artist called sabrepulse. the sorta music is called chipbreak if im correct, it uses 8bit sounds from things like gameboys. one of the most common ways it is made is by using an old gameboy with little sound dj, quite an advanced portably loop/synith/sequencer for its time, a lot of the decent artist that make this sort of music still use it today as it was able to proces words etc. and it can be linked up to recording programes such as cubasis and logic and then run into there sequencers to make songs purely from the gameboy or used to put melody or sounds into other songs. hope this helps ps its really hard to get hold of nowadays pps i used sabre pulse in a video i made a while ago in portsmouth just read some more of the topic, if you want any sabre pulse i have two of his albums atm getting some more soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
