“Spotless Mind” by Leeni. As far as sharing choice chiptune tracks with you, I did a pretty awful job with that in 2011. This post won’t do much to make up for that, but here’s my song of the year from the scene, a tribute to one of my favorite films, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, from Leeni’s excellent album The Only Now.
And here are a million links to neat chiptune releases/projects I meant to feature throughout the year:
- Decktonic’s Dark Mode, a free EP of music composed in KORG DS10+
- Inverse Phase’s chiptune NIN cover “The Only Time (Gameboy MonoMix)”
- Balun’s beautiful two-track release Beko 84
- Several free album releases from Battle Lava
- Yogurtbox’s Tree of Knowledge, a fantastic OST for a fictional eroge (why didn’t I feature this earlier?!)
- DJ RoboRob’s Of Dubsnestep, remixes of SNES songs
- Dot.AY’s dinosaur concept album Ceratopian Society
- Several awesome songs from UncleBibby
These all deserved individual posts instead of a link dump — terribly sorry about that! Please give them all a listen, and keep them in your ears in 2012.

8-bit cover of Dexter’s “Blood” theme by Wayne1991. I was confused by the song’s transformation into a dance track a third of the way through, but it sounds like the original tune has some funkiness going on, too. Maybe they never play that part on the show?
This song comes from Chip Coalition Compilation Volume 2, which collects 10 chip arrangements of themes for popular television shows like Scrubs, Flight of the Conchords, and X-Men: The Animated Series from various artists. The Silph Scope’s short but sweet rendition of The Office’s theme is my favorite — you can download that track and all the others here.
