PolyCube

"Before the last remnants of Krell civilization disappeared into the great temporal cataclysm, a cadre of travellers escaped into the fifth dimension where they became forever known as the PolyCube.
Only the haunting strains of their sound-art remains to herald their exodus."

Soundfly Introduces Chiptune Crash Course

MATRIXSYNTH sponsor Soundfly has introduced a new course on creating Chiptune music.

"Online music school Soundfly has just launched a new free one-of-a-kind course to teach DIY musicians how to make music using the sound chips of old video game systems, such as the Game Boy. It's taught by critically acclaimed chiptune artist Chipocrite. He has performed nationally at major events, such as Vans Warped Tour; provided soundtracks for video games, online videos, and commercials, including a nationally-run GameStop ad; recorded numerous albums, including the award-winning 2011 release "Hit and Run"; and appeared on talk shows, among other accolades.

By the end of part one, students will be able to program their own version of the C major scale — a key first step in creating more elaborate songs. Part two, which is launching soon after, will dive into more complicated arrangements using four channels. The course is mobile-compatible and can be accessed for free by anyone anywhere in the world at the following link: https://soundfly.com/courses/getting-started-with-chip-music. Students don't need anything but a computer and an internet connection."
