Hey! I'm typing this from a phone so forgive me for being quick, but I wanted to thank everyone for helping me achieve my $256 goal. As soon as I take care of some other responsibilities, I will begin working on some more LED effects to make shows pop. I've also added a few more milestone goals - please check them out and help me promote my Patreon so I can do more cool things for all of you.

New EP listening party in a week?

April 10, 2015 05:33:33

None

Hey Patrons! I'd like to have a listening party for the new EP, and I want to include everyone either via twitch or maybe a group hangout. Right now I can do it on the 15th of April, which is Wednesday, sometime after 7pm eastern standard time. So, my questions are: - Who can make it / Who can't? - Is there a time that works best for you? - Should I stream on twitch and everyone jump in a group chat? Or would hangouts be better? There's also skype, but I think that will probably be gross. - Would you prefer this be exclusive to you, Patrons, or should we invite others? Let me know and I'll plan it out!

Adam Tannir I think I'd prefer Hangouts, any time after about 7:30 PM with some advance notice. Twitch could work if there are enough people but I haven't made an account yet. Is this thing on? Am I the only person who will show up?

April 12, 2015 00:45:58 · Reply

Inverse Phase I think a few other people will be there. Maybe what I'll do is use Hangouts for Patrons, and then twitch stream that so others can join?

April 12, 2015 01:31:19 · Reply

Alex I agree with Hangouts for patrons and twitch for others, though it's not really that important. I'd prefer any time between about 7 and 11 ET.

This month: A slightly big thing

Boy, I sure know how to wow the crowds with subject lines! But seriously? Get excited: This month is bringing us a 3- or 4-track tribute EP of another major act. Can't say who yet; trying to mitigate any fallout in advance... I will say the first track is already done and it's sounding great. The EP will also go to my subscriptions on bandcamp, but it won't be buyable there; only Loudr and the platforms Loudr pushes to. So, I need your help! My Loudr account is pretty unknown by fans. Would you mind following and encouraging others to follow me over there? That would be mighty fine! Here's the link: http://ldr.fm/a/3BRu2 Hope everyone is having a nice March!

Boring title, I know - I just typed up a huge long post and it vanished (twice!) so I'm now typing the abridged version. =] I've been hard at work getting my video-fu up to par, in multiple ways: 1) The video I posted earlier this month uses something called ColorChord. Charles has been hard at work on it and I've been testing and providing feedback. The entire thing has been rewritten like twice and it's now extremely stable and modular! 2) Remember my "Cool visual thing" milestone? Because ColorChord is so modular now, we got it running on my LED grid on the back of my laptop *right* before MAGFest, and betatested it during my set there. It was great! I've still got a ways to go until I'm happy with the things my LED setup can do, but ColorChord was on the list and it is now DONE! 3) Last year I livestreamed myself writing music a bit, and I plan to do that more this year. However, I also want to stream myself gaming on Twitch, so I *just* got my start on Mother (Earthbound) 1 on the NES, after which I will proceed to 2 on the SNES and 3 on the GBA (all in English). Over the past week I've hacked together my own livestreaming setup because basically none of the Linux streaming solutions worked for what I wanted to do. Even though it is quite a custom ordeal, it's been fairly solid and at least as good as most of the other setups I've worked with. I've logged around 20 hours already using this setup. Since that's my most recent "thing", that's what this Patreon link is. Please head over to my twitch channel and follow (don't forget to enable notifications) if you'd like to watch me stream games or music composition! Hope everyone has had a nice 2015 so far and looking forward to sharing what's coming down the pike!

New visuals: Check out this video

So hey! I recently monetized my YouTube channel after receiving a resounding "DO IT" and I made a resolution to try and pay more attention to it. This is a part of that. In that vein, I've been testing out some cool music visual ideas with my buddy Charles and providing feedback, and I wanted to show it to everyone. These visuals are generated in realtime using a DFT rather than an FFT, which means instead of a "regular" frequency analysis, it specifically maps frequencies of notes. Then it figures out the strength/intensity/loudness of those notes, picks a few of the top ones, and does an animation based on that. The music is Lost Signal from Shuttle Scuttle, one of my better tracks from the game (well, in my opinion). Please share this around to anyone that likes shiny flashy things! Also before I forget, this month's rewards are coming soon. Thanks for your patience =]

Rescue? More like NEScue, amirite?

Hi Patrons! Recently dropping on the unsuspecting masses alongside my Dungeonmans Demakes is a remix for Beatscribe's Starship Rubicon OST. This game recently got a re-release and is worth a look, and the soundtrack has an interesting blend of chipsounds and beats. If you're in a hurry but still want to hear what I did, listen to track 3 (Rescue) and then my version, track 7. I decided to take the combination of chips and deconstruct them into something that a single NES could do. I have a limited number of full-album download codes that will be going out to my top Patrons, everyone else will at least get a download of my track. =] Hope you're having a great holiday/December/winter!

Ladies and gents, thanks so much for being a patron! I say thanks a lot — maybe it's getting old — but it's because I really do appreciate you staying on-board with me. This is a slightly-crazy end of the month for me. Here's what's going on: 1. I've got those Dungeonmans tracks going up on bandcamp soon. As soon as they're up, you'll get a download to them. Payments process starting Saturday, codes should go out Monday or Tuesday when everything finishes up. 2. The reason I haven't gotten those tracks up is because I've been working on a new album release, which will be put up for preorder tomorrow if all goes according to plan. Don't preorder it; it will be next month's Patron-supported work. But I wanted to be transparent that this has been something three years in the making and it's taking a lot out of me. I hope everyone has an awesome Halloween tomorrow. Can't wait to show you what's next!

2 Chips 1 Month

So I've been trying to work with Overclocked Remix EDM extraordinaire Andrew Aversa — that is, Zircon — for awhile now. I really don't do enough RPG-style music and an opportunity presented itself. Andrew did the OST to Dungeonmans and asked if I'd like to do a demake of any of the tracks. I was feeling the Town track as a chiptune since Town and Overworlds are often more memorable tracks from games, so here we are. There might be more than one of these coming down the pike (some of the battle/boss themes lend themselves to some C64), but for now I just want to make sure you, my Patrons with hot Patooties (ugh, I'll never alliterate again), got access to this. Patreon begins billing for this month's work tomorrow, so expect a download code for this and also C64est (the track from earlier this month) to show up in your inbox soon! Thanks for supporting!

New dual-C64 Oblitus arrange

Josh Whelchel is working on music for the upcoming game Oblitus (http://oblit.us) and he asked if I wanted to do something with his new tracks. I listened to his work-in-progress of the ingame forest music and it really stuck with me. So, here's my re-arrangement of that forest theme on two Commodore 64s. I really like the original...the atmosphere is really great and I'd recommend you listen to it first before listening to my version. I also had this idea in the back of my head for something that would really make you move, so I've taken a few liberties with it to merge what's in my head with the original. This is a paid post, so I will be messaging Patrons with a download code when the time comes. For now, I hope you enjoy, please feel free to share the link around!

Hey Patrons, This album is wrapping up, and I'm excited to announce it's ready for preorder! Anyone pledging $4 or more will get a download code in under a week, and then the album will release at Otakon in full, glorious "real CD" form. For the highest fidelity, of course. I would love it if you could help spread the word about the preorder! A tumblr post is already up, and facebook, twitter, G+ and linkedin (because why not) posts will go up around midday and you are welcome to reshare those, or you can make your own post and just link directly to http://inversephase.bandcamp.com/album/chiplust - once I've actually slept I will probably make a reddit post and maybe some other stuff, but not before since that often leads to ... issues.

Chiplust Preview

Hey everybody! I'm working on a new album. Actually I hope to have it done before the end of the month, so that I can take it to Otakon! While not really a chiptune or even really a music event, Otakon is where I discovered MAGFest, and also where I released my first and second chiptune albums. I sold out of the CDs I brought and realised I could probably turn chiptuning into a thing. So it will be a pleasure to make another release in time for it. Well, I hope I can, anyway. Right now I am crunching HARD because there's really only a week left until I have to print CDs, and I have 4 songs to go. Don't get me wrong, they're mostly complete, but they still need work, so I'm not out of the woods yet. This will be a Patr(e)on-supported work. If your pledge level is $4 or higher, you will of course receive a download code once pledges are processed, so if you want to up your pledge and get a copy at lower-than-release-price, here's your chance! =] In the meantime, I livestreamed myself tracking earlier this week, so please enjoy this preview courtesy of my twitch channel, which is http://twitch.tv/inversephase if you'd like to follow it.

Hi Patrons! P8MSE is basically ready. Here's the preorder page, but don't preorder it! You, my pretties, will receive a download code shortly after being charged at the end of the month. However, if you can help me spread the news, that would be stellar! If you know anyone that does NOT have Pretty Eight Machine, please get them to follow me here instead: http://ldr.fm/a/3BRu2 because the Special Edition album (that is, the original AND the bonus tracks) will be released in its entirety for only $8 when my licenses clear. I'm also putting it up on iTunes, Spotify, Google Play, and Pandora. So yeah, if you follow me on Loudr, you'll get an email when it releases. I have been agonizing over these tracks for at least a year, being as meticulous as I was with the original Pretty Eight Machine and sneaking work in-between. Also I've put together a 20-page CD booklet for it. I hope you enjoy this once it releases! =]
