Vargskelethor/Joel was playing through N64 games of questionable quality, and one of those games was Razor Freestyle Scooter. I thought, "This would be funnier with Fren riding the scooter." So, I painted it. #MARU #DANKART #Fren #vargskelethor #vinesauce

This is fine. ☕ #MARU #chiptune #music

I've been playing around with ChipNomad from @megus.org lately. Do I know what I'm doing? Absolutely not. The gritty sounds I can make with the AY chip are fun though. #MARU #chiptune #chipnomad #music

While I was watching @cobracommanda.bsky.social a while back playing through Yoshi's Island I sketched up how imagined it must feel whenever Yoshi has to turn those fat shy guys into eggs. #MARU #DANKArt #art #comic #nintendo #yoshi

It’s being played on a model 1 Genesis and the patch fixed the input issue. If I encounter any more quirks or issues I’ll let you know. 👍 Also, thank you for your work on this. The game is a much better experience with the larger SMS resolution being played on a small CRT.

I made some Gunstar Heroes artwork that was featured in @agentannk.bsky.social 's last Dank Zine. If you enjoy retro games, obscure media, dank movies, and comic books, you should check out her stuff, too.

I've never made NES music before, so I decided to try out Risa from @laamaa.fi by making a rendition of my LSDJ song, Himitsu/Secret. It's probably easier to make NES music in Furnace or similar trackers, but the LSDJ style interface just feels like home. 👍

Kirby style rave party, anybody? #MARU #LSDJ #gameboy #chiptune #music

The time-lapse of working on it looks a lot like when the DOS golf games she played would load the scenery.

A sketched the idea for this during @pixelturkey.com playing through her BIG GOLF stream and decided to paint it. #MARU #dankart #art

I drew this before they announced the Star Fox 64 remake, but I think this would have been funnier. #MARU #dankart #art #starfox

My @subvert.fm page is now live, meaning you can listen, download, and even purchase my music on this new, shiny platform that feels fresh and ambitious. You can check out my page here - www.subvert.fm/maru There's plenty of other artists on there too, so please check it out. #MARU #music #subvert

My latest Game Boy music album, What's On The Tube? Vol. 1, is out now. This is a compilation of all my previous songs made using commercial/television samples and some newer songs. You can read about it and download it from here: marupanda.art/whatsonthetu... #MARU #LSDJ #gameboy #chiptune #music

🧙🍪

A while back @goatistream.bsky.social played through Where's Waldo for his Megamarathon and I got this funny idea while watching. 👽 #MARU #dankart

Nine games isn't enough to list my vast genre of favorite games, but these are definitely some of my top games that molded my interest in certain genres and storytelling styles. #My9Games

I used this loop for a joke-themed song but it's so good I'll probably include a goofy samples-free version on the album as an extra. #MARU #gameboy #lsdj #chiptune #music

I'm working on an album that will include all the songs I've made using samples from commercials. I wanted an excuse to make siren noises in a song and this was perfect. 😎 #MARU #music #LSDJ #gameboy #chiptune

I've been working on some very experimental music for an album and it makes me realize I might be better at sound design than conventional musical composition. I just enjoy mixing weird noises. 🙃 #MARU #LSDJ #gameboy #chiptune #music

I PROBABLY SHOULD HAVE MADE THIS EVEN LOUDER BECAUSE IT'S BILLY MAYS, THE CAPS LOCK KING. #MARU #LSDJ #chiptune #music #meme #billymays

My Game Boy music album, Hitchhiking The Milky Way is out now! This collection of groovy music will keep you occupied while you wait for a ride in the vastness of space. marupanda.bandcamp.com/album/hitchh... #MARU #GameBoy #chiptune #music #LSDJ

The time lapse of this makes me realize I paint in the colors way faster than the planning phase of a lot of my artwork.

You might be able to say you're preparing for hibernating as an excuse. 🤪 @blemur.bsky.social

The noise channel is fun. #MARU #LSDJ #gameboy #chiptune #music

I've been working on a song that will be in my next album that has a lot of techno inspired compositions. I was wanting to make something with a lot of arpeggios that were more than three notes with controlled speed and couldn't think of a way until I remembered grooves work in tables. #LSDJ #MARU

You're gonna love my nuts! 🥜 What? Do I make meme music? Nooo, I would never do that. 🤪 #MARU #LSDJ #GameBoy #Chiptune #music #slapchop

Sometimes I take a song I'm familiar with, like the Hammer Bros./Battle theme in Super Mario Bros. 3, in this case, and mix it up to try different styles. #MARU #LSDJ #GameBoy #Chiptune #music #Nintendo

A while back @agentannk.bsky.social was playing baseball games. One of them was a Charlie Brown baseball game for Mac, and, of course, whenever I think of Lucy involved in anything it's constant berating.

Here's a time lapse of the process. Painting all the yarn balls took longer than everything else. 😵‍💫
