Chiptunes and Chipmusic
This weeks’ Monday Mixes are from _ensnare_, the chiptune producer and game developer from Britain, he also runs the chiptune netlabel Chiptune Rush.
First, a new mix sampler of his 2014 live shows
Next, an album mix from last year’s album Tech Switch
Last, a full album stream of his recent release with Inspector Vector, Defend Your Ramp
If you’re a fan of Animal Crossing, you’re in for a treat! Grimecraft and Maxo just released a new single on GameChops, the perfect end of summer tribute to everyone’s favorite seafaring NPC, the Kapp’n. Stream below and download on Loudr.
A short but special mix this Monday, a pure-chiptune mixtape from Radlib (also known as OxygenStar, among many other aliases). These are some pure .mod files played off two Compaq laptops running Impulse Tracker into a Vestax PMC-37PRO mixer. Long live lo-fi!

The chiptune collective and compilation series Chiptunes = WIN has just put out their latest volume, with a whopping 51 TRACKS from chiptune musicians from around the world. I have the pleasure / challenge / nightmare of mastering these tracks together for the volume’s release, it was epic and I’m very happy with how it all turned out.
You can stream and download the Chiptunes = WIN: Volume 3 below. For more details, check out the FULL DETAILS page on The ChipWIN Blog.
