10 years ago I began working on Muki, a web-based MIDI and chiptune player which I eventually announced here on HN[0]. It was a fun weekend project.

Over the years I received numerous requests from people that wanted more: more music, more features, more playable formats, you name it.

Eventually I began working on a complete rewrite of the app (this time for real), and, realizing that each year another chiptune or MIDI website went offline, I decided to start archiving them for preservation.

Today, 10 years after the first release, I think it's finally time for the new, nicer version to hit the shelves. It's now called Pixeltune and yes, now you can actually turn down the volume. :)

Hope you like it!

Amazing interface and player!

I'm finding a lot of this music as great background for work. It seems especially the 16 bit and 32 bit game system music seemed to hit a sweet spot for me.

Thank you. I have a few minimal/ambient playlists that are great for concentration. I'll include one or two in the featured section!
