New Featured Artist: Chroma

Set out on an adventure through chiptune paradise with our new Featured Artist Chroma!

A more-than-familiar name to anyone floating in the rhythm game universe, Chroma is a Japanese producer best known for their emotionally iconic 8-bit soundscape. With features in games like SOUND VOLTEX, GROOVE COASTER, CHUNITHM, and maimai, Chroma is beyond overdue for inclusion in our Featured Artist collection!

Ranging from hyper-intense to calm and expressive, 20 of Chroma's tunes are available from their Featured Artist listing, including classics like Dark Sheep and lost memory.

We hate to admit it, but there's more to life than clicking circles. In reality, placing circles in the editor is the peak of human existence, so tread on down to Chroma's Featured Artist listing for all the pre-timed beatmap templates your mapping heart desires.

Electronic music may be usual fare for rhythm games, but this weekend we'll be shifting towards traditional instrumentation in the J-rock sphere. Stalk the @osugame Twitter to figure out what that could entail. See you soon!
