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.
Compression is one of the harder concepts to grasp when it comes to music production. When I was first learning, I found it an overwhelming to go through so many tutorials that either didn’t show practical use of compression or didn’t explain why you’d do it. So we’re going to start from the very begining and keep moving onward from there.
Sup y’all? =) President Hoodie from Chiptunes = WIN here!
Been a little while since I’ve typeity typed on this supa-delicious blog, but today I’ve a solid reason for a quick return:
MAGFEST = WIN
To clear things up a bit, ‘MAGFest = WIN’ is a new ChipWIN compilation featuring 12 new chiptunes from 12 chipartist performers from the recent MAGFest 12! (A NUMBER WHICH WAS OBVIOUSLY CHOSEN ON PURPOSE AND DID NOT HAPPEN BY ACCIDENT AT ALL. :3 )
As always, mastering by Dj CUTMAN, artwork by Nate Horsfall, & track order by Kubbi. (aka THE FULL WORKS).
tl;dr – Wanna keep the joy of MAGFest alive in your heart/soul/junk/heartsouljunk for the rest of the year?
THEN THIS RELEASE IS FOR YOU. 8)

With but a few days left before the July 15th release of Chiptunes = WIN: Volume 2, the final touches are being put in place; Dj CUTMAN is preparing the final masters for upload, Kubbi is locking in the track order, & I’m triple checking everything there is to check thrice over & THEN AGAIN.
In the meantime, HAVE A PROMO VIDEO (full roster listed within):
And how about some KICKASS ALBUM ARTWORK while you’re at it:
Regarding Volume 2 merch by Maddie of Pixel Pixie Apparel & Promotions, YES.
(sorry, that’s all you’re getting on that until Monday ;).
And, of course, don’t miss the crazy Vol.2 listening party on 8 Bit Power Hour + Nerd Rock Radio starting at 8pm EST Monday on 8bitx.com (click HERE to go to the Fb event). I expect it to be JUST as ridiculously awesome, awesomely ridiculous as the first one (i.e. VERY much so 8).
3 MORE DAYS, Y’ALL. ^_^ ^_^ ^_^
