what's with the gameboy noises lately

:>

To me, ever since Whiteroom 'Someday' I've been noticing a few songs with some serious tetris uts uts. I squished 3 songs together.. ear this sample -- http://digital-menace.com/ug/gameboy%20megamix.mp3.

Nothing against it, I find it real cool, but is this going to be a sweeping new fad :S?

I forgot how much I like "Someday". It's been a while. "Whiteroom" whores that "sine" effect...but it usually sounds pretty cool to me.

I think alot of producers have started playing the old school megaman games again

do you mean the their signature square wave? i don't know what you mean by a sine effect...

a sine sounds alot different. i hate to be so anal...i just truthfully don't know what you mean.

Square waves are "in" right now.

I used to think that square waves often sounded very cheesy, but I like the way they are used in the example mp3 you posted.

I thought the same thing. That's definitely a square.
