Chiptunes = WIN is a blog (https://chiptuneswin.com/) that covers most of what falls under the "video game music" umbrella.  They release compilations of chiptune music selected out of submissions sent to them.  Then, for each main comp, they get a different record label or collective to release submissions that didn't make the original + some new songs from the collaborating label's musicians.  Since DESKPOP's roots are in chiptune, we were more than happy to participate!  This compilation is an excellent showcase of what VGM has been, and where it could go.  We have a free download on Bandcamp, with streaming on Spotify/etc soon.  Enjoy!

From Serlöf's overflowing imagination comes "The Journey Begins," a single from his upcoming soundtrack for a non-existent game, "Purple Juice."

What happens when you feel like an outsider in both academic and pop music worlds? For Serlöf, the answer is to build a bridge and bring audiences together. Inspired by 90’s videogames soundtracks, science fiction movies, and Internet culture among other things, the Mexican-born composer clashes every musical idea stuck in his head and creates colorful, genre-bending electronic music that also brings orchestral colors to the table.
