I've been digging through a whole lot of old and recent folders to make a mashup of my old spooky chiptune tracks and blend them with my more modern synth sounds, creating a +50 minute playlist that will haunt your day.

Best studio session this year so far, that it might be the start for a Synthwave album I have in mind since... A long time!

MrKathooloo's Chiptune Contest #40 - Cover (on Liven Megasynthesis)

My track for this month contest at r/chiptune, one that will always have a special place in my heart. The first arcade game I fell in love with back in the 80s

[HISHE] Jamuary2025 - The Final Jam

YouTube video by Carf Darko

CarfDarko @carfdarko.bsky.social · Feb 10

Spoiler alert: heavy Bioshock ending spoilers (1 2 and 3!)

Originally written for Jamuary2025 with orchestral sounds I wanted to see if I was able to reach that same vibe with chiptune sounds and the Megasynthesis was the perfect synth to try this with.

#jamuary2025's prompt was Name so I had to write a melodie with my name which spelled D4-C4-F5-F4-D#4-C4-F5-A#4-D5 in music.

I learned Weirdcore is a thing and I think I am now part of that scene.

Found another track by the Super High Huskies, a band that spent one evening in my studio, had a massive hit in the Amstersquare area and disbanded the day after. So far I've been able to recover 2 other tracks by them.

Funny how I keep finding their songs only in January!?
