chiplove Volume 2: A Planet to.sav

Two years have passed since Volume 1, and the time is right for the Chiplove team to reunite. Theoretically based in Berlin, Chiplove spreads its chiptune love with friends from across the globe. This time we are concerned about the ecology of our planet. Despite the huge problems of Covid19, we must not forget The Earth is also in desperate need of our care.

Proceeds from this compilation will be donated to climate change NGO carbon180.org
