What's your favourite thing about chipmusic/the chiptune scene? It doesn't cost a lot to make music. $10-20 machine. It's ecological: you recycle old stuff to make new stuff. Also it's super super friendly. And it's totaly cool.
What track would you recommend newbies to chip music check out as a gateway song? OutBrk by Sabrepulse. Simple, effective, great Game Boy tune. Very uplifting track.

What influences your music the most? Old school demo scene music, modern electronic music, and more and more funky nu-disco, jazzy music. I like to try a bit of everything.
What's your favourite piece of equipment and why? The Atari ST. The sound is massive, raw. At first it doesn't sound that good, but with a bit of work you can be amazed by what you get from it. That's the case with all chip gear actually.
What's your favourite video game and why? The Legend Of Zelda - Link's Awakening
