Well bluesky thinks I'm under 16 and I am gen X with a feed full of 40 year old computers. So account restricted. Thanks #socialmediaban

Was my goal to release my first Album this year. Songs that are tried and tested, battle hardened over the last 3 years. 2025 isn't over yet..and it IS going to happen.

When you spend like 8 hours working on a track and think it's too padded and you time it with stop watch and you have 28 seconds done lol. This one's gonna be hard to finish.

So I got a Dreamcast from Japan and the motherboard was va0 (not easily modded) so I had to get another one. Australia is 240v so had to change PSU. I got dreampsu but VGA image was not great. Now got thunder PSU. Beautifully made. And VGA is crisp. More planned.

Some space chip. Meant to be working on bangers but sometimes you gotta work on techniques #m8tracker

Tiger made this. Handy for recommending the new official best card of the M8.

Just a #commodore64. Everyday is a good day to listen to some sids.

So got all the songs I've chosen for the upcoming album. On this player trying to listen as a listener and see if anything needs tweaking before it all gets stemmed. The Sega megadrive and C64 track are going to be difficult to master.

Ramping up. See if I can release Ride Xor Die on bandcamp with 4k video on youtube at the same time. I found a random bug with delay at 45.01 bpm today so big thanks to Trash80 for fixing it already. The show goes on!

This track I wrote, what tommorow brings. I was so happy it reached 10k views on youtube. Today thanks to a m8 showing up on the reddit sub what is this thing. My song on youtube is now at 51k overnight and still going. Posted this video like a year ago. Feeling blessed today.

This Nanuk 935 case has been serving me well for about a year now. Trolley handle. Wheels. Stair sliders. Good job Canada. The chiptune stickers continue to grow.

New Beta for the Dirtywave M8 tracker released today. Lots of new features. My favourite one is the external quick render. Lazy chop was a long time coming. Wavetables in fm now. 32 bit rendering. Every instrument gets an eq now. And even more. Look for it on the discord.

Fun game. Made by fellow chiptuner. Show some love

Crunchy potato helping keep arduinoboy available. Which is an old Trash80 invention to control a gameboy with midi. These ones are super slick. Actually ordered one recently.

Migraine day today. Trying a new medication. Other one was worse than the migraine. Seems ok so far. Still super dopey and bleh though. No productivity from today. Can only offer this photo I accidentally took when change volume on phone.

WTF is released on Bandcamp today. Can a track made on M8 be old school this ones from early M8 days.

Wanting to get a mp3 player going. This 2008 Sony is cool but I just don't think it sounds good. Not the one.

A small 2008 red sony mp3 player show halcyon on on now playing with the album art from hackers 1995 movie.

Someone once told me yellow was my favourite colour. Weird that I never really knew. But once I thought about it. It was hard to argue. Yellow makes me happy.

Original gameboy Camera works pretty well on the analogue pocket. I have not tried to get the photos from a sd card save file yet. Heard save files have an offset bug in this firmware that affects photos. We can do it the old way though with a cart reader. #gameboy #analoguepocket

This was going to be a video post. But my previews have no audio. Bluesky still bit buggy in this regard or? Trying from the app on Android. Photo in the meantime.

Unless I write a banger in the next 2 weeks this is the set list im going with. I often save files with very rough draughts or just some experiments so I end up with just file names instead of thoughtful song names.

A list of 17 song titles. With 6 crossed out
