The ByteBeat Collective is an alliance for all of us music lovers! Feel free to sign up at the portal glyph address shown in the image above. You can sign up at the space station within this system. This is just my personal home system (the sign-up junction), we will continue to search for a new hub system to make our "capitol" home world.

The new alliance feature is decentralized, so there is no official capitol in-game. And we can claim as many star systems as we'd like. Once you've joined the alliance, feel free to claim star systems for yourself and for the alliance!

If you have any trouble using portal glyphs, just write your friend code in the comments and we'll connect with you as soon as possible! I have a busy day today IRL unfortunately, otherwise I'd hang out at the junction and greet you guys!

Don't forget to join our Discord!

Shout out to u/PowerfulSoldier for funding the alliance with 1 billion credits to get it started, we thank you!!

The Search for a New Home World!

-kzzt- Calling all travellers! -kzzt-

r/NMSByteBeatFans is searching for a new home world! The goal is to have a star system dedicated to sharing ByteBeat creations, base builds and meetups! Our previous home world Crescendo is nearly five years old, and with the Cosmos update launching after the recent 10 year anniversary for No Man's Sky's release it is a great time to refresh this ByteBeat community project!

This exploration project will need player submissions between September 9th to September 20th, 2026. Then the subreddit will vote between the best three submissions presented by the exploration committee and the winning star system will be chosen to become our new home for sharing ByteBeat creations!

Requirements for a Home World

Here is a list of requirements for the ideal star system:

• You must be the discoverer of the star system.
• Euclid Galaxy for easiest multi-player functions.
• Closer to the galactic core would be ideal but not necessary.
• Yellow star system is ideal for easiest multi-player.
• Minimum 4 or 5 celestial bodies, including planets and moons.
• At least 1 planet should be inhabitable (paradise or similar).
• No extreme environments or frenzied sentinels (or at least minimal).
• You don't have to re-name planets (unless you want to), we might vote on names.
• No existing builds except maybe a small base or teleporter.
• No existing alliance (Cosmos update), we'll want to bring the new home world system into a new NMS ByteBeat Fans alliance!

Because we want a fresh start, it would be best if the planets do not have existing bases but it's okay if you have a discovery base (small base, teleporter, etc) but please don't build at the portal location or space station because we might want to customize those areas.

How to Submit a Star System

Comment here in this sticky post with a screenshot of the glyph coordinates and try to also include a screenshot of the star system in your discoveries menu.

Please include a brief description of the interesting planets, such as: "Paradise, dusty, high radio source planets and a frozen moon." or anything else you want to highlight.

...and let me know if you have any questions by message or comment here, and please join our new Discord server: NMS ByteBeat Hub on Discord!

I share my songs all across Euclid galaxy! I build a small base with the ByteBeat devices so other players can download the songs in-game. I posted the video for this song on Reddit (link).

I know this is a little self-promotional but I just wanted to share my passion for NipNip Buds and music with you fellow travellers!

Here are a few quick updates to our subreddit!

New Post Tags

I wanted to add a few new tags and create an opportunity for members to distinguish their posts. This includes a "Just for Fun" tag so people don't feel pressured to post finished work, and can just share their project as is. New tags will also set up the framework for our "Guide / Tutorial" projects and "Waveform FX" for sharing sound effects. Here is the complete list of current Post Flair tags:

• ByteBeat Original
• ByteBeat Cover
• Song Request
• Just For Fun
• Waveform FX
• Guide / Tutorial
• Build & ByteBeat

New User Flair

I always love user flair in other subreddits so we should have fun with these. Let me know if you want to add any more flair options, here is our current selection:

• ByteBeat Creator
• ByteBeat Enthusiast
• - kzzt - kzzt - kzzt -
• Resonance Amplifier
• Dissonance Resonator
• The truth hums between the data threads.
• Atlas Eternal

Rule clarity regarding the use of AI

I've updated the rules to specify that AI altered music is off-topic for this subreddit. We're here to craft NMS ByteBeat tunes, so using AI to alter music creations is off-topic. I specifically mention that using external software to process audio is acceptable (i.e. Reaper), in case new members get confused about some of the content shared by our most ambitious creators who have integrated music production software to make their ByteBeat songs.

New Projects

I hope you all find these new tags and flair options useful! I'm going to start doing weekly (or semi-weekly) posts to get started on some new projects coming soon, and I'll include reminders for members to start using these new post tags. I'm learning more about subreddit mod tools (there are wiki tools to help with site navigation too), so I'm excited to announce some projects later this week.

Have a great week and be well, travellers!

This is from my Gek-themed playlist:

"Ruthless Empire" on YouTube

1. First Spawn
2. Infinite Domain
3. Ruthless Empire | Reddit Video
4. Hive Mind | Reddit Video
5. Anninilation
6. Monolithic
7. Pride of Balaron | Reddit Video
8. Altered Breed
9. Crimson Hearted | Reddit Video
10. Atlas Eternal - Part 1
11. Atlas Eternal - Part 2
12. Most Favoured

The song titles are all inspired by Gek lore, and I tried to make the songs match the vibe. For example, "First Spawn" is about the genesis of the Gek race, "Infinite Domain" is about the Gek colonizing the galaxy, "Annihilation" is about the destruction of Korvax Prime, "Altered Breed" is about the Korvax retaliation on the Gek, and "Crimson Hearted" is about the Gek finding religion in Atlas.

I hope you enjoy, I had a blast making this playlist and it's my favorite so far!
