Maybe this is going to be a tough question for some of you, and I'm betting it mostly depends on when you grew up, but I was wondering what your favourite original chip tunes were? It'd be great anyway to have a list right here of the tunes that most inspired the famitrackers.
For me, it has to be the Commodore 64 Ocean Loader 4. V5 is the same tune neatened up, but I think I prefer the rough, granulated edges of V4. It's such an epic tune: it possesses hope, sadness, determination and grit, and of course excitement if you've ever been a child sat loading up a new game on your C64.
Here's a link, Enjoy! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=92CRWLx_zBg
Now it's your turn.

If you can still find it, what originally got me into 8-bit chiptunes in particular was skp's piece of music called Asia - I was shown it by a friend (irl, mind) and it all went from there.
Other than that? Nothing really comes to mind, I just really wanted to make Mega Drive versions of my favourite pieces of music from other games back in 2008, so that's what I did. There wasn't really any much influence since it wasn't exactly as popular as it is today (considering it was difficult as shit to do then, the only real way of doing it authentically was via hacking Sonic 1 or 2, Sonic 2 beta if you knew what you were really doing)
Blz' whispers was probably the reason I started to develop an interest for chiptunes:

Anything done by [url=http://malmen.org/?page_id=45]Malmen/[url=http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL750068B5301F295F]Joule is awesome.
A lot of tracks by Mitch and Dane on the C64 blow my mind too:
