I don’t know about you, but I can’t stand autumn. I’m not a big weather guy at the best of times, but autumn is easily my least favorite season of the year. It’s windy and cold but not cold enough for skating or snow (or to warrant moaning about it). The leaves may change color but they also fall off the trees and become a soggy mush that you wade through. And, just to make things worse, as a European we don’t even get a proper Halloween or any Thanksgiving, so it’s a solid tromp from summer to Christmas with hardly anything to look forward to. I hate autumn.
But at least there was one thing to look forward to this year: Autumntunes. A few years back, a new chiptune netlabel initiative called Ubiktune was started by progressive chiptune artist C-Jeff. But recently they have been making a name for themselves with releases for each season, featuring a group of chiptune artists from all over the world, using all manner of tools.
So will this release liven up my dreary autumn, or does it get dragged down by my all-consuming autumn depression? Find out after the jump! (more…)
