After mentioning 4mat<\/a>, one of my favorite chiptune musicians, I thought I’d note a few others that I’ve come across in recent years.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Tugboat: Man of the Year<\/div>\n

For some time, this album was available only on CD-R, directly from the artist. (I have a copy, its title hand-written in permanent marker.) But you can now download the album here<\/a> for free.<\/p>\n

Tugboat announced in 2008 that he wasn’t creating this type of music anymore, and I haven’t come across anything else by him, but I think this album is excellent. <\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Peer: Dances<\/div>\n

Belgian composer Pierre Slinckx<\/a> released a chiptune album under the name Peer. It’s unique and very good. You can find it here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

And you can find more of his music here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

8BP050<\/div>\n

This one isn’t by a single composer–it’s a compilation of 50 songs by many different artists. I think it’s available only on CD<\/a> and not as a download. <\/p>\n

I have the CD set and I highly recommend it, but if you’re just looking for free music you can download the 20-track “bonus disc” here<\/a>. These are songs that didn’t make the 2 CD set, but I found them to be just as good as the ones that were included.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

I could list many more, but I suppose this is enough for one post. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
