Northern Dessert (different Instruments)

Whimsical melodies crawl out of the glowing hole in the earth, and up into the sky. The frogs in the distance sound like synths. Dorkus64 opens the path to a new realm, asking you to "Follow Yourself" written in poems of digital fusion and electronic shenanigans. Since his first appearance on "DESKPOP: Green Version" Dorkus64 has honed his charming vgm-soundtrack style, offering original compositions drenched in low-poly nostalgia.

Tilting at Windmills ~ The Dragon Did It?

Ephemeral (2024)

Original Song: https://soundcloud.com/robinerd/flying-weeds-happy-8-bit-chiptune-2020-remaster

I went down memory lane with this cover! I've always mentioned Dubmood as the main reason for me getting into chiptune, but Robinerd  was the one who inspired me to get into writing them.

That's right! My first foray into writing chips was not with FamiTracker, but with a small DAW-like program called Musagi, which is what Robinerd used for his chiptunes. This was all back in 2010 - 2012. Fast forward to 2024, I decided to look back on Robinerd's work, and I must say, it still sounds good to this day! It was quite the nostalgia trip. :)
Made in Furnace.

Dark Thoughts

get spooked by the jukebox

Lyrics:
A jukebox jumpscare making you jump in your seat
A jukebox jumpscare sending shivers down into your feet
Put on the record, starts with a real loud bang
Making you spring up and let out a howl
That is very foul

A jukebox jumpscare left you spooked in your chair
A jukebox jumpscare got you springing right up, like you just saw a bear
You're thinking "Dang it!" 'cause you got so panicked
But a silver lining's there that'll make amends
You can prank your friends
With a jukebox jumpscare

Jukebox Jumpscare
