Sometimes I forget what got me into Chiptunes in the first place. Games like this. I owned Pictionary for NES, It comprised of a selection of mini games, much like the WarioWare series. I used to play with my little sister (and sometimes my parents). Games were simple, like catching mindless sprites falling out of a flaming building. Or jumping around from platform to platform, dodging a beachball on the moon. You know, stuff the whole family can enjoy. It also had chippin’ sweet music by Tim Follin.
EDIT: I couldn’t resist, I had to make a beat from one of the selections.
Keen ears will recognize Mizuki’s Last Chance as the man behind the opening track of Dubtroplois. As a producer, he creates an unparalleled blend of dubstep and chiptune in his tracks. His mixes are sharp, his samples are crisp, and his drops are filthy. Producing in Reason 5, Mizuki creates a signature sound, aggressive dubstep-style tracks with super clean 8bit leads and arpeggios that fit in flawlessly. I’ve picked a few of my favorite tracks below, and there’s lots more on Soundcloud.
I put together this mashup when I realized there were no goofy dubstep remixes of this classic Dance Dance Revolution track. It turned out more awesome than I expected! The source song is “Butterfly” by Smile.DK, and the backing track is Skrillex The Sadness Will Never End [Bring Me The Horizon]. I even made that cute pic of Skrilly and Deadmau5 playing DDR with art I found on google image search. Cute-tastic and dub-alicious.
