    This DS homebrew app seems like a kds10/elektroplankton/piggy kinda blend with osc based samples. The demo video certainly looks nice!

  • Mario Paint Composer DS released

    mpckeyboardHey people, long time no see!
    I been pretty busy with work and stuff, but then again, since South America is not even considered part of the global chipmusic movement, who gives two shits? No need for me to post much here :P

    Anyway, I recently acquired an Acekard 2 for my DS, and have been slowly trying to catch up with the homebrew movement (and Phoenix Wright games :P) and I stumbled upon this little fella here: a port of the Mario Paint music composer. Not a big fan of this little gimmick, but I presume some of you people will enjoy its cheesiness.

    Official blurb:

    “Mario Paint Composer DS is an indirect remake of the music composer tool found in the Super Nintendo game “Mario Paint” with a few new adaptations which I added in from the PC version created by unFun Games (http://www.unfungames.com/). Please note, I am not responsible for the pc version, these two programs merely share the same name and that is all. This is not a direct port of any version, it is completely coded by myself.”

    Paratrooopa has added a bunch of interesting new features and improvements and you can download the results clicking here.

    ED: I ripped these samples a while back, grab them here lgptmariotaint

  • New Pixelh8 DS Program Previewed.

    Sounds like this is the first Pixelh8 program that really has lots of useful live performance tools. As someone who has been mostly disappointed by the DS offerings, this looks like it will be a very useful program.

    The Pixelh8 Music Tech Master Stroke DS is a real time synthesizer for the Nintendo DS system it allows for extensive sound design and is the natural evolution of the Music Tech Series allowing for the classic chip tune sound on a modern device.

    The new system allows for keyboard style play by pressing “X” to bring up the 2 Ocatve Xylophone or classic Music Tech mode by using the directional pad to control the sounds in the same way as the Music Tech Game Boy and Pro Performer Game Boy Advance.
