Hi!
I'm new member in this forum and I wanted to share my original music with you. I'm into makin music for some time, but this is the first time I did something serious in 8 Bit. My damn huge inspirations are soundtracks from Contra, Castlevania series, Zelda, Doom etc.
Hope u like it, if you've anything to suggest or u can advice me in anyway, please do so

Thx, I used guitar pro 5 to write music (yep, I play guitar), exported it as a midi file and then used a midi to 8 bit converter.

What's the name of your midi to 8-bit converter? Have you ever thought about using FamiTracker to create chiptunes? Your tracks are quite awesome. I can't wait to see more of them.

yeah, thank you for the bump, ward- I forgot about this post.

look, there's a million ways to make music that's a chiptune, but if you're considering really getting the authentic sound, give famitracker a try. there's plenty of tutorials on the you tubes, or just strike out on your own!
