THE REPLICATOR

Here's an unmixed cut of "Dawn of Souls" from the new album I'm working on called Apothecary.

Apothecary (Old - No Guitars)

This was my submission in battleofthebits.org's Winter Chip IX compo in the .MID category.  This version was recorded using a CS2X, which has a superior soundset compared to the Microsoft GS software synth, but I wasn't allowed to use for my submission.  I was originally going to have another part after the 2nd chorus, but I was already over the 64k file size limit.

This track placed 163rd out of 375 entries.

So I did this cover about 3 years ago and recently my friend Timon asked me if I would redo it with my new instruments and I thought ... why not ... so here is some chipmetal based on the song "The End" by the Metal band "Oneiric" from Aachen. Visit them here if you like:

The End [Oneiric Remix]

"Cruise Ship Terror" by Swashbuckle, by me.

--

All aboard!

Swim for it. We stole your shit.
Satchels thick. Throats now slit.
No doubloons? Leave them marooned.
Checks and charges? What be this garbage?

Pearls and lace. Make no waste
Rum for taste. Loot with haste.

Party boat, party boat, party boat.
Vacation at the sea.
You've sailed uncharted waters.
Now you'll cease to be.
Party boat, party boat, party boat.
Nowhere near the land.
By the time they find you,
you'll have died by our hands.
CRUISE SHIP TERROR!

No survivors. Set it afire.
A burning mast. Now avast.
Our hull's full with valuables.
We'll sail away to loot more pay.

Take the women. Leave them frantic.
We are Swashbuckle. We sunk the Titanic.

Party boat, party boat, party boat.
Vacation at the sea.
You've sailed uncharted waters.
Now you'll cease to be.
Party boat, party boat, party boat.
Nowhere near the land.
By the time they find you,
you'll have died by our hands.
CRUISE SHIP TERROR!

Yo ho! Yo ho! Yo ho! Yo ho!
Yo ho! Yo ho! Yo ho! Yo ho!
Yo ho! Yo ho! Yo ho! Yo ho!
Yo ho! Yo ho! Yo ho! Yo ho!

Cruise Bit Terror (Swashbuckle)

Theme song to an upcoming Let's Play channel on YouTube. Written (mostly) to VRC6 specifics with chipsounds and DPCM samples.

Nesromancers Theme

You simply aren’t ready for Next Life. So rare is it that you discover a band with such an original sound, coming from somewhere within their own universe that when you do find a band such as this, it’s always surprising. We proudly introduce you to Next Life.

Hailing from Oslo, Norway Next Life are Hai Nguyen Dinh and Tormod Christensen. They make music that fetishistic ally explores the twin worlds of Deathmetal and game music with a preciousness that some how skirts into the art-rock realm. Around the office, we call their sound “Gameboy Deathmetal” and when you hear a second of the record, you’ll know why.

Basically it’s real guitar, synth guitar, Nintendo “vocals” and programmed beats made to fit a metal archetype. This refined and personal new music somehow always winks at the artifice through which it was created (which is why it is also completely unnerdy).

Lastly, a side note here about Next Life. These guys fucking ROCK live. You wouldn’t believe it could work, but live they are like vicious robots spasmodically jerking to every power chord and chugging riff. They are available for booking, and really, they are probably one of the very best new bands around.

16-bit remix of "Universe On Fire" by Gloryhammer

Universe On Fire (16 - Bit Universe Mix)

To Arms

My Turbografx-16 entry for Battle of the Bits' Summer Chip V.

This is the first turbografx track I've ever worked on.  I had to sit down and figure out how to work Deflemask to make this.

Internal Destroyer (HuC6280)

Thunder Force IV - Down Right Attack

There you go. Complete with awful DJMAX inside-joke in the title.

Track 1 of Georgia Tech Game Jam composition, for Steampunk Dragon.

Inspired by F-Zero, GGX, Dragonforce (figures!), NieN's stuff, among other things. There's an FF6 cameo in there, and I've had people say it sounds like Mickey Mouse and hentai game music (...metal?), among other things. Guess I'm officially Japanese now.

Special thanks to Ethan Lee for stepping in at a moment's notice to do the shred solo.

Maybe in future when it's not crunch time I might do a non-headphone mix with an alternate ending and re-upload. The name stays, though :V

Robot on Drabgon

Track from the upcoming album LUNARIA to be released on March 11th!  

This track was written on a Nintendo Gameboy and originally began as boss music for the game Jump Jet Rex (on Steam now and coming to consoles soon).  I expanded a bit on the original track and added guitar.  This song is heavily influenced by Gustav Holst's "Mars, The Bringer of War". 

Behemoth

This track is an extract from "Shitbird - Shitbird EP [CND003]" released by Chip'n'Damned Records.
