Distant Islands: 51 minutes of experimental SNES chiptune, treating the soundchip like the quirky 8-channel sampler that it is; featuring microtonality, glitches galore, heavy manipulation of the chip's available effects and parameters, and unusual, often homegrown sounds. All tracks were recorded straight from a single Super Famicom system, with the exception of live drums layered onto "Welcome Back to Dragon Airlines".

Someone once told me that when I write I "leave keys for distant islands" and the phrase has stuck with me ever since. This is my first full-length, non-compilation album in three years, and I focused on making something that resonated with me personally and employed the kinds of sounds I wanted to hear. I also went all-out in exploring just how strange, incredible, and absurdly messed-up the SNES could conceivably sound. I'd like to think this covers some new, fresh territory in Super Nintendo chiptune, and I hope you enjoy it!

All songs were composed and written to blank SNES ROMs using osoumen's C700 VST (or forks of the VST that add microtonal functionality and extra MIDI tooling), then recorded from my Super Famicom. The rendered audio is lightly mastered for consistency.

Putting my own spin on Defense Mechanism's 'Same Song' wasn't easy, and it was definitely a little intimidating trying to stay true to the original! 

If you haven't already shown support for his album Slycology, please do so!

@b-summer-127647586 さんの 4分の19拍子祭 に初参加です。3年前にドラムとベースは作っていたのですが当時の能力では曲として形にならず https://soundcloud.com/sexytoadsandfrogsfriendcircle/cubenoy22-dont-get-him-mad を次に作ってこちらは完成できたのでSTAFFcircのアルバムで公開したあと、2024年になって再挑戦。19/4拍子もそうですがそれ以外にもドラムとアシッドベースのOstinatoなど、いろんな要素（癖）を取り込んだ曲となっています。

KORG MDE-XというVSTのMastering Limiterでちょっとだけ波形を整えて音圧を少し上げていますが、ほぼほぼMIDIの時点でマスタリングまでしてあります（試していませんが理論上ではReverb/Delayが使えるSC-88以降で可能）。

ミックスの面でもここ3年ぐらい色々悪戦苦闘して得られた知見を結集させて打ち込みました。令和最先端の音源を楽しんでいただければ幸いです。
