Dj CUTMAN launches a Patreon campaign to support his Internet Radio show

Hey friends, Cutman here. I just launched a campaign with Patreon to support my on-going Internet radio show, This Week In Chiptune. The show has been going strong for 42 consecutive weeks, it given me the opportunity to promote hundreds of chiptune songs. I’d love to keep the show going into the future, but I need a little help to make it the best it can be. Check out the campaign.

PatreonPatreon is like an on-going Kickstarter. You can make a pledge that will be delivered each time I create a new episode. With your help, I’ll continue to be able to showcase the best chiptune music and host the ever growing archive of episodes (now at over 48 hours of music!)

This Week In Chiptune will always be free. This Patreon campaign is a chance to get involved, and help make an even better show. If you haven’t listen to TWIC yet, you can stream every episode on ThisWeekInChiptune.com. If you like it, consider pledging, even $1 will make a huge difference . Plus, pledging higher amounts will merit some pretty cool rewards!

New Chiptune Album Plays on Sega CD ( NOTE! – Color Mechanica )

Note! - Color Mechanica Chiptune Album plays on Sega CDYou got to hand it to the innovative nature of chiptune musicians to continue to create new, awesome (and sometimes weird) ways to play  their music.

NOTE! from New York City has created a new chiptune album that will play back on a Sega CD console.  If you’re having trouble locating your old console, you can download Color Mechanica on Bandcamp, and the recordings sound awesome. The truly devoted can pick up the old sega console on ebay for between $50-$100 to get the true chipmusic experience.

Check out the trailer video below of the features included in the Sega CD version. Sweet visuals!

Stream the entire album via Bandcamp, and remember to support your local chipmusician!
