Default [Chiptune] A Madman's Anthem

Decided another CBR song is due...
This is basically just me having fun with basslines, breaks and most of all, chip sounds. Sounds Somewhat kkrusty-like.

http://soundcloud.com/cbr/a-madmans-anthem

Enjoy fellas

PS: I obtained a new program for mastering, read up on it and applied it to this track. Breaks should be nice and low, whereas the leads should be nice and high-leaning. Tell me if you guys notice the difference. Thanks.

Also, New CBR & Xanorith EP dropping Fall (?)

This isn't chiptune, and the music construction is really really bizarre. Sounds like a pleasant music for some pixel-based flash game.
It's hardly listenable for me, sorry

holy shit i must be losing my mind then

this is some of my better works imo, maybe im just going crazy

artist crisis

Thanks for listening though:
Construction is Intro > First chiptune solo > bridge > Second Chiptune Solo > Both chiptune solos simultaneous / on-and-off > Outro. Fairly basic. Maybe you dont like the time signatures used?

Edit: Thanks for calling my works avant-garde, always pushing the boundary :P

This is more like Avant-garde. xD
Not chiptune, but interesting. Like mr. Scylaax-core said it would be good for a game of some kind.

I enjoyed the polyrhythms and the beat was well-made. However the melody itself could use some work in my opinion. Then again, I lean towards more poppy-bubblegum-eqsue melodies when it comes to chiptune. Either way, you obviously have a grasp on composing music.
The hardest part of being a musician is to realize the gap between what you think sounds good and what actually sounds good. That is what I struggled with for a long time, and still do. While this track is not a bad piece of music by any means whatsoever, the gap here might be a little more than it should be.

Either way, I'll follow you on Soundcloud because I'm curious as to what else you've worked on!

Agree.
But, you were just having fun with the bass and chip-sounds and stuff.
I'd rate it 6/10
