Remix Default – A Tribute to the Characters of Bravely Default
Remix Default is a collaboration between New Jersey musician Ralfington and Philadelphia DJ / producer Dj CUTMAN. Remix Default re-creates the theme music of each of the four main characters from the Bravely Default soundtrack, originally composed by Revo.
Remix Default is a fusion of retro-sounding Chiptunes and futuristic EDM. Ralfington transcribed the songs onto his 3DS using Korg’s DS10 software. Dj CUTMAN mixed and mastered the songs using the popular audio production software Ableton Live.

Internet Meme Album from ChipWIN | Chiptunes = #SrsBsns
Sup y’all? Prez Hoodie here with another fantastic Chiptunes = WIN compilation announcement! Of course I’m talking about our latest April Fool’s release….
Chiptunes = #SrsBsns
‘Chiptunes = #SrsBsns’ (Serious Business) features 22 brand new meme-centric tracks (yes, they’re all written about/referencing memes :3 ) from a VERY talented array of chipartists spanning the globe. The premise is ridiculous, but the execution is damn near flawless (these cats ran with the crazy concept so very hard!). Per the usual, artwork by Foxdragon, track order by Kubbi, and mastering by videogamedj.com’s own Dj CUTMAN.
Why? Because Chiptunes = Serious Business, duh. 8-)
