If there is something to be known about me, its that I friggin love chiptunes (well that and I have like 10 squirrel brains in place of a human brain).

Sources of stuff:
http://www.youtube.com/otobeya - This guy makes chiptunes based on other music. Lately he's taken to making chiptunes of anime openings.

http://www.youtube.com/grad1u5 - Lots of uploads of video game music.

Some examples:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sjjZId6mZLw - I don't know anything of either the Jam Project or Super Robot Wars. I do know that this is awesome.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=swl0Zc6IK9I - Doooooooooooodge! Otobeya actually has a huge medley of Gradius music somewhere on his homepage.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cdn7QMtPaDs - Cute!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bOgBb8h7LHw - My GOD is that an awesome transformation. A quaint little tune becomes an epic.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qE9JEnNGnV4 - The stage 2 theme is the best. Natsume produced some head knockin' stuff back in the day. Shadow of the Ninja, Shatterhand, Abadox, and S.C.A.T. all had awesome music.
And now they just make Harvest Moon. Image

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N-B7BChD-M8 - Maybe I'm weird, but I think the first song is pretty.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QbfKTrt29Tw - 1943 was my first shmup ever. I like the stage 2 and 3 themes, they have an old fashioned feel.


Post your favorites if you fancy!

I am a music digger, but more of a feeler than a knower, so I can't exactly say I'm sure what a chiptune is. I just listen to whatever sounds good. Once I know, maybe I'll have some tunage to share, since I like to share tunage. (Check my sig and call me a liar. ;p)

A chiptune is basically electronic music made with computer chips. Usually, its used to refer to video game music of old consoles and computers, or music of the same style. You can post any music you like though, it's just that I only really know chiptunes

Here's a few non-video game tunes from groups that you just might recognize from... other work:
