You even managed to get the meowing in. <3

This sounds like something from Mario Kart. Good Job

Pump up the volume!

Super RobCo Disco Battle started as a Sunday afternoon project in mid-June 2013. The idea was to create a classic arcade battle melody spiced up with a techy Disco groove. It took around half a day to compose the basic melodies and two more studio sessions with Artfx! (https://soundcloud.com/artfx) to pimp it up with a jumpy Sega bassline, self-made arcade sound effects, additional Disco percussions & an awesome mastering.

The name of the track is a reference to the computer/console game Fallout & and is especially dedicated to the legendary “RobCo Industries” corporation, one of the biggest & most influential computer and robotics corporations in the (future) United States of America. Just imagine Mr. Handy & Yes Man fighting a deadly “John Travolta style” Disco battle in front of a Nuka Cola vending machine. Makes perfect sense, huh? :)

An early beta version of the track has been released in issue #14 of the weekly Chiptune Podcast “This Week in Chiptune” by DJ Cutman (https://soundcloud.com/djcutman).

Hitboxx ( https://soundcloud.com/hitboxx ), a Chiptune composer from France created a cool breakbeat remix of an earlier version of the track. You can listen to his version here:
https://soundcloud.com/hitboxx/dualtrax-artfx-super-robco?in=dualtrax/sets/super-robco-disco-battle

Super RobCo Disco Battle was created using Renoise (http://www.renoise.com/) & Cubase (http://www.steinberg.net). The lead and some of the bass samples are from the NES & the Sega Mega Drive. The Chiptune arps have  entirely  been designed in Renoise.

Dualtrax & Artfx! - Super RobCo Disco Battle

The 8-Bit Guy made, as you probably already know, a new game - Attack of the Petscii Robots. It's available for the Commodore PET, VIC-20, C64, Apple IIgs and Atari/Commander X16.

Noelle did all the official music for this game, as I had little time to devote to this project except for the design and label stuff as usual. However,  in January this year, I sat down and made some songs that I thought could fit the game. Using only hardware and no soft synths or samples, I did a series of tunes inspired by the titles of the maps in the game.

Initially I planned these to be loopable and short as most in game music tends to be, but I quickly found myself making more or less full songs with a more normal structure. So this alternate soundtrack is more of a synth inspired album that some of you may find ok to play in the background while playing the game.

Since The 8-Bit Guy sort of challenged me to come up with something on the B. Meowsic keyboard he reviewed here (https://tinyurl.com/y94cuwks), I had to respond (as I don't know when I'll be able to make another visit to the US this year). So here it is, The B. Meowsic Keyboard Song.

The keyboard itself is practically impossible to play on (without spending ages on getting every take right) so I took the liberty to sample the sounds from the keyboard and allow some light processing (layering sounds, lowpass filter to create some  bass sounds, compression and effects (delay, chorus and reverb)). The drum loops were slowed down as much as possible, then I sampled what I could of the separate drums being played. Unfortunately there were no separate crash cymbals, and the entire keyboard operates close to 22.05 KHz so the entire sound palette is a little muffled, but hopefully it sounds nice nonetheless. :)

You can download these samples here and play with them yourself: https://tinyurl.com/ycq6eqmd
(some slight adjustments of the sample start points may be needed to get the attacks right)

Kittens Away (The B. Meowsic Keyboard Song)

A song I made when rewiring my studio and had to test if everything worked properly afterwards. Turned out that it had to become a proper song after all. ;)

Retro Grooves Vol. 3

Summer Love

"Evening Workout" is the first single from my upcoming retrowave-inspired EP.

Evening Workout

Electronic musician from Norway. I started playing piano/keyboards in the mid 80s. After a few years at the municipal music school, I quickly grew tired of the simple piano-only education and got to move on to classes with keyboards and synths. From the early beginning with Technics K-200 rhythm keyboard from 1983 via some Casios/Hohner keyboards, I evolved with the later Technics KN-1000 and KN-2000 before moving on to Roland XP-50. As the computer revolution made DAWs affordable, 1999 made sequencing using Cubase easy and the studio grew ever larger with more outboard gear. Today the studio has become a sizeable and functional MIDI/arranging studio with over 40 synths/modules and more centered around a MacPro with MOTU’s Digital Performer, and numerous more or less famous productions.

I have always had a musical approach towards sound engineering and composing, rooted mainly in vivid harmonic structures and saturated compositions. Inspiration has always been the likes of Jean Michel Jarre, Vangelis, Eric Serra to name a few giants in the electronic scene, but also a heart towards well produced pop music from the 70s and 80s as well as epic film scores from John Williams, Alan Silvestri and Hans Zimmer. The baby era of computer music from the late 80s and early 90s was also a heavy influence.
