The Architects Of Old School and New Age Chipmusic

About Me

To Clear ANY POSSIBLE CONFUSION! We are nothing to do with a rock group called The Architects from Kansas City, Missouri, This is their link
Now that the public service message is out of the way!
Hei!
This page is far from finished so just bear with us for the mo.
We are two young guys from Birmingham and Wolverhampton, writing chipmusic.
For those of you who do not know what chipmusic is, its the type of music found on old games consoles such as the atari and megadrive.
We’re still getting to grips with all this myspace crap, so just bear with us for now.
Benson, from Wolverhampton, focuses on Old School style music, and uses the same hardware to match. An Atari ST, equipped with maxYMiser. He mainly writes similar music to what was found on the old console games, influenced by Chipmusic artist Dubmood. But occasionally, he does use milkytracker.
Willson (The Brummie), tends to focus more on the New Age style music, crossing it with elements of Industrial metal, as you can tell from the song Theme Two. He uses an everyday PC, equipped with Milky Tracker, to write his music, getting ideas from influences such as Deathstars, Children Of Bodom, and Ensiferum. Occasionally though, he does (try) to use an atari!
Well there you are. Thats us!
Any questions, ideas, or suggestions are welcome!
Moro for now, hope to see you soon!
