Chiptune Beats
From chip tune. Synthesized electronic music, often created with sound chips from computers, consoles or old arcade machines. In the 1980s it was the type of music that accompanied video games, although nowadays there are composers who keep this type of music alive.
Chiptune music is written inside a limit. The original hardware handed you two or three pulse channels, one triangle for the bass and a noise generator for the drums, and every melody had to fit, so the sound everyone knows is a constraint. How is chiptune music made now, when nobody has to obey that? Usually by keeping the rules anyway, because the rules are the genre.
Chiptune beats, the chiptune trap beat and chiptune vs 8 bit
What is chiptune music in practice: a lead with a fast arpeggio standing in for a chord, a bass with no sustain so it pulses, not holds, and hats of noise rather than a recording. How to make chiptune music sit under a rap vocal is harder, since a chip has a thin low end and a sub has to go underneath without burying the square waves. That is where the chiptune vs 8 bit question lands too, because a chiptune type beat tends to keep the palette pure and an 8 bit beat happily mixes it with trap drums. A chiptune trap beat is that compromise: chip melody on top, an 808 doing the weight the hardware never could.
