  • TCTD Podcast #001 – Happy Chiptune .MODs

    TCTD launches its new podcast!

    Every other Friday a new episode will be released, with a different theme each time. We will dive into some of your favorite artists – and artists you’ve never heard of. We will explore the different styles of chipmusic, it’s various platforms, labels, groups and try to cover all aspects of this wonderful scene. There will be mostly music, but expect some interviews and talking as well.

    The podcast is in first hand run by me, Random, but you can look forward to hearing special guests appear in future episodes, with valuable help, insight and discussion.

    To celebrate that summer is here, this first episode is dedicated to – in all simpleness – Happy Chiptune Protracker .MODs. Enjoy.
