So it’s been a month since our latest Volume compilation released. Y’all all know what that means by now, right? ಠ‿↼
Fantastic album artwork for ‘Tracked x ChipWIN’ by Xenia.
The last thirty or so days have been enormous for fans of chipmusic. Between a new boaconstructor EP, ChipWIN: Volume 7, a new Chunderfins LP, and various other new albums, we’ve been gifted with a simply staggering amount of high-quality material to soothe our ears. On September 10th, the legendary Bit Shifter has graced our community with a brand new release titled ‘Closed System Blues’. At times blissfully peaceful and pensive, and at others pugnacious and adrenalized, ‘Closed System Blues’ showcases a difficult to match diversity in composition. I’m honored to have been presented with the opportunity to review an album by this master of his craft, so without further ado, let’s dig in!
THIS IS IT. We’ve come up to the last ten tracks of Volume 7, and I can’t begin to express the rollercoaster of emotion that was experiencing this album without being able to share the hype with everyone in our Discord channel during the release party.
Fortunately, I have a platform where I can have opinions regardless of how right or wrong I can be (thanks, Internet! <3), so without further ado, it’s time to jump into the first track on my list to cover!

Hey there, familia. How’ve you been? Myself, I’ve been digging these here tracks on this compilation.
I, too, am going to go ahead and skip what could be a wordy introduction, and delve into tracks 31 through 40 of this simply amazing volume.

No, but seriously let’s get rocking with this.

As you’ve no doubt noticed in and around our community as of recent, we’ve been promoting the hawt diggity dangin’ dawg out of our latest compilation, ‘Chiptunes = WIN: Volume 7‘. And rightfully so! It’s absolutely stellar! ♬♫♪◖(●。●)◗♪♫♬
