8-bit Music Galore
So 8-bit music has been making a come back in past years and their are alot of artists and music groups who make songs from just 8-bit sounds, or couple it in with other instruments. Here are a few of my favorites and feel free to post your favorites or just some that has caught your ear recently...

Re: 8-bit Music Galore
I consider JFA to have the best music in the series. But, a personal favourite:

Re: 8-bit Music Galore
oh wow, I'm loving this 8-bit downgrades. Mind you I've heard a better TTGL OP chiptune vers. I think, unless that was the same one and youtube quality is hurting it, it was on the Operation British Album, although I'm not sure if it was technically 8-bit.
But the Chrono Trigger one is amazing, it's always interesting to see how well people can maintain the musical depth of a piece under limitted circumstances. Again, not entirely sure if this is technically 8-bit, but it definitely fits the theme. I'm a little sad I couldn't find the actual video for Starlight, it's beautiful, but it must have been taken down. Here's one with the video intact, not my favourite YMCK song, but just a taste of the visual artistry of their music.

Re: 8-bit Music Galore
Yeah, I know it's Chocolate Rain. However, it just sounds great anyway. The only problem with the Chrono Trigger one that I like is that it's not true 8-bit. It's got a stereo track in there.
