Synthux Spotykach Dual Looper and Teenage Engineering OP-1

video upload by Luca Longobardi

"I was talking with a friend about audio restoration few days ago, and I realized this is how I’ve always thought about it: you can only restore what was once beautiful. If beauty was never part of the original, there’s only so much you can recover.

I feel the same way about electronic music.

For me, electronics are not a substitute for emotion or imagination. They are an extension of them. They magnify what is already there: the resonance of a piano, the sound of hail falling on a balcony, the breath hidden inside a recording.

The real magic isn’t that electronics can create another reality.
It’s that they remind us this one is already full of extraordinary sounds—and that, with imagination, we can transform them into something even more beautiful.
Or at least in my case."

Dub Techno with FM Synthesis on a Game Boy Advance | Peak 2026-07-04 by atnr

video upload by atnr

"A live dub techno jam built around a Game Boy Advance running FMS — a groovebox by Lo-Bit Club that runs real-time 2-OP FM synthesis natively on the GBA. The sequence and FM sounds you hear from the GBA are all generated on the handheld itself. The ‪@rolandglobal‬ TR-08 and ‪@MoogSynthesizers‬ Subharmonicon are synced via the MSY2. The TR-08 runs through a ‪@strymon‬ blueSky reverb, while the Subharmonicon is tweaked in real time through the Strymon TIMELINE delay. The OP-1 field loops reverb-soaked chords, and the ‪@ChaseBliss‬ MOOD MKII layers evolving micro-loops on top.

Gear used:
・Game Boy Advance + FMS ( https://lobit-club.itch.io/fms )
・Moog Subharmonicon
・Roland TR-08 → Strymon blueSky
・Strymon TIMELINE
・Teenage Engineering OP-1 field
・Chase Bliss MOOD MKII
・Kenton MSY2 (sync)

Happiness is a warm chip | 8-bit Nintendo EP

video upload by Jay Hosking

Additional HapiNES posts

"Please support my work on Patreon: / jayhosking
Five chip tunes made with the limitations of the original NES.

00:00 - Stage 1
02:41 - Underworld
05:07 - Cutscene into battle
08:07 - Peace and war
09:55 - Overworld

I grew up on video game music, and it's probably a large part of why I love synthesizers today. What impresses me most about those old soundtracks is how much they can achieve with such a limited voice count and, to a lesser extent, sound palette. (I actually adore the sounds, so I don't see them as limiting.) The Nintendo Entertainment System had two mono synth square waves, one extremely chunky triangle wave mono for bass, and then a noise oscillator for percussion. There was also an extremely low-resolution sampler ("Blades of Steel!") but I chose not to reproduce that here.

For a while, I had been thinking about working within the limitations of the original NES. I could do that on any modern groovebox or synth, of course, but I wanted the limitations forced on me, and I wanted something that got me close to the original sound without a lot of work. Thanks to my Patreon community, I was able to pick up the Twisted Electrons hapiNES L, which emulates the old NES chip sounds, right down to the mono (not stereo!) out.

Once I had the sounds in place, I wanted a way to quickly write and structure songs. The Teenage Engineering OP-XY proved a good choice, because it's quick, has two octaves to play on, has a smart and creative transposition tool, and has an excellent song mode for structuring longer compositions. I also wanted to use some other sequencing tools, so I pulled out the Oxi One Mk2 for the final song. I didn't find it was quite as effective for the song-mode sequencing, but its new Chord Palettes mode led me in some extremely interesting musical directions.

I could have kept going, but five days seemed like a good haul of NES music for now, and proof to myself that I could do it again in the future. I know the music here might not be to everyone's tastes, but it satisfies the kid in me and makes me wish I had an 8-bit game to write a soundtrack for.

Thanks for listening.
