Not sure if I have a superb example... Dunno if they use nes-trackers (which undoubtedly give the coolest sound) but I know some using the most out of the 8 bit powers of the 80s. Hehe.

HORSE The Band - Murder, or all of them in general have 8 bit sounds in them.

Then you have Machinae Supremacy. They make what they call SID Metal. SID is the sound engine in the old Commodore 64.
Death From Above
Winterstorm
Gimme More (SID). Yes, that's a Britney Spears cover.

The Overworld album in general has a lotta modern synths and stuff and less 8 bit stuff in it, but all in all I guess you can get an idea of how they've used it as an addon to their music.

When I said nes tracker I guess 8 bit is all good enough, but I have a deeper love to nes tracking and the distinct Nntendo sound. And for that I can only give examples from Nintendo games I guess. Allthough there are some who make nes chiptunes for fun too.

i love the Chip effect in Death From Above...
and Horse are full on Nintendocore!! i might have to have an experiment with 8-bits and Chip effects...
I'm just taking things as they come... if it works it works... i'm trying not to force things to come and these past 2 songs i've made are testament that it pays to be patient and to let it flow when it's time.
I've been listening to Dangerous and Moving and VU by t.A.T.u. a lot and m loving the electro effects that are ever so slight in the background on D&M and the full on electro on Running Blind, VU and Snegopady.
Theatre of Tragedy are still inspiring me. I now own everything by them bar from one single which i hope to win off Ebay at the weekend!

Death From Above is actually a song from a game called Jets n' Guns. They made all the soundtracks for that game, and released a 2CD with prolly 30 songs that are along those lines. They've released 3 albums that are more along the lines of the two latter songs I linked to. An awesome band And so is HORSE The Band. Hehe. In their own respect of course... They're just hitting the nescore into your brain, and you're forced to love it

Indeed. I agree with you. Try out new things all the way, and see if you get a feel for it and a good idea hits you. If it don't, then one can always "force through" a result that might only be half good, but then again, half good isn't really good enough.

Personally I've always had a love for chip tunes, still digging music from old nintendo games, and I wish I could find myself in the position of incorporating it into a proggish industrial metal kinda world I'm quite certain that dream will never be fulfilled, but still, I know the ideas that are floating about in my head are perfect. Hehe.

I agree with you on t.A.T.u.. One can say what one wants about the quality of the song writing, but the overall musicianship and result of it all are quite good, and that's why I've stuck with t.A.T.u. during all these years. Nothing is by a mistake in the songs, for sure.

I hope you'll get your last piece of ToT I haven't got any CDs of them I'm afraid. I haven't gotten that far yet. I've had so many other bands higher up on my list. Hehe.

possible lyrics for Cascara-

Time to die
to learn to cry for help in times of need
the speed of pain
you'll learn that the blood in you will just drain away
with each passing day... i'm done

time to die
to learn to cry in times of need
the pain will not drain away
the pain will not drain away no way

time to die
to know the sky will fall
this fake called life's a knife in your back
you lack the tools to save yourself... the pain
will not drain away ... the pain
will not drain away

Ok. I have just finished a new instrumental track. It's soft and atmospheric and has been described by many as 'spiritual' which i like.
The song is called "Maia" and is dedicated to a friend and her child who is suffering from an illness and is always in and out of hospital.
When you hear the song you may wonder why the song cuts off at the end and the reason for this is that it will kick straight in to another song.
It's now on my Soundclick page. As usual any comments are always welcome and gratefully received.

MAIA

I've been busy again. 3 more songs done for my new CD.
The first is called Æsir and is named after "one who is a member of the Norse pantheon."
The second is called Skye and is a 70 second interlude.
The third is called Maia and is dedicated to a friend who's chid is seriously sick.

Æsir sounds like a soundtrack from Dune 2 or something like that You seem to be frequent with those. Hehe. Nothing bad with that tho! I believe we've uncovered my great appreciation for gaming music already.

Æsir is my new favourite song as well as Aradia. It is EPIC! It orginally was 8mins long. I had to cut it down so i did. The last bit of the song when the drums come in i'm going to find a sample of vikings and put that over the top. I do feel the song has a strong Norse feel to it.
Skye is fun and Maia has lyrics!!: Here they are -

Maia

She was suffering alone
She was wondering how to live and let live and never look back
Inhale and atone for your sins for you risk being turned into stone

Everything you do should be for the good of all....

She was suffering alone
She was pondering how to live and let live and never look back
Breathe in and atone for your sins for you know you're bad to the bone
Excite and enthrall
Know the journey to the centre's a ball
Enchant and enthrall
Know the dreams that you have absolve the soul

Everything you do should be for the good of all...

Well she's done a remix
