If like me you’ve always wanted to give 8bit music a chance but could never be fussed with the laborious task of getting hold of a copy of LSDj or fiddling around with the messy DOS based interfaces of many a tracking software. Pixelh8 has created a cartridge through his own reverse engineering to actually allow you to manipulate the sound chip of a Game Boy’s 2a03 sound-chip to your hearts content. The program can actually be tested on his website and run in your java supporting web browser so you can see how it works etc. Although not as complex and feature-full as LSDj or Nanoloop but perhaps that is a good thing?

There is only 100 cartridges available so make sure to pass an email to him if your interested in purchasing one. According to the man himself, he’s able to sell both a normal Game Boy cartridge or a Game Boy Advance one (compatible with the more recent Nintendo handhelds)
