Check out this dope compilation: at TGS and then for the rest of Japan on 10/15, Inti Creates is releasing a collection of Rockman/Mega Man music covered by a bunch of cool chiptune artists like virt, Hally, KPLECRAFT, and USK.There’s a sample at the site, but it sounds like a chunk of every track strung together, and is therefore a mess.

Low Bit Playground 12.0 – Tokyo, April 18th – pt2

This is the second and final part of our coverage of Lo-Bit playground 12.0. Part 1 can be found here.

20:00 – Tanikugu

LBPG is incredibly well organized, all acts have their equipment laid out and ready to go before the doors open. Tanikugu’s rig was by far the most interesting. They had no less than 4 Midines carts plugged into 4 AV Famicoms with 4 bridge adapters hooked up to 2 laptops. Unfortunately they had difficulties with one of the Midines units from the outset. The set was fairly minimal, mid paced, perfectly competent Famicom techno but I felt they didn’t really get their feet under them due to the technical problems.
