Gaming
Introduction
Hey everyone, Alexey here with our chiptune mixtape from Mega Cat Studios!
Introduction
Quality chiptunes aren't as common as they used to be, but we have a few gems for you today. We've curated five tracks by three different artists that are absolute bangers. It’s time to drop those sick 8-bit beats!
Featured Artists and Tracks
Professor Shy Guy
Professor Shy Guy is no stranger to producing music and streaming. If you log on to Twitch right now, you'll probably catch a few of his VODs. While he may not be cranking out new tracks every day, he does have a few classics. His tracks "Keywords" and "Dubstep" from the RPG Song are exactly what their names imply. The tracks are straightforward, featuring hard electronic beats and geeky lyrics that we absolutely love. Notably, he featured voice actor Kyle Haber in the RPG Song to provide epic narrations in between verses. If you're looking for an electro 8-bit song that tells a story, look no further than Professor Shy Guy.
Meganeco
Next up is Meganeco, an artist who explores a wide range of chiptune variations. Although all their tracks fall under the chiptune umbrella, each one brings a different feeling. Two standout tracks, "The Cyber Grind" from the Ultra Cool Soundtrack and "Discovery," showcase Meganeco's distinct style yet couldn't be more different. "The Cyber Grind" evokes the feeling of running through an endless mob of faceless killer robots while having the time of your life. The track blends heavy metal, electro, and synth, making it a triple threat. In contrast, "Discovery" tones things down a bit but maintains its pace with a more whimsical, pop vibe. Both tracks are best enjoyed one after the other.
Boss Fight
Finally, we have Boss Fight. Whether intentional or coincidental, his tracks sound like the perfect background music for any boss fight. One of his newest tracks, "Mercy," offers dark and heavy industrial sounds fused with classical instruments and plenty of synths. The music creates an ambiance reminiscent of breaking into Dracula's castle and battling your way through ghouls and creatures of the night. The twist? You might find that Dracula is a cyberpunk android! This track is perfect for looping, especially if you’re in the midst of a horror thriller game binge. We think it would pair quite well with Stardew Valley 2.
