5
6Listie is a mashup artist, chiptune remixer, and graphic designer from Canada. Listie is best known for the ''8-Bit [[Music/TheBeatles Beatles]]'' series, a series of chiptune remixes of full Beatles albums. In 2015, Listie abandoned chiptune remixes in favor of Audacity mashups, some of which can be found on Music/{{TimmyTurnersGrandDad}}. Many of Listie's mashups feature custom-made album covers.

11!!Tropes exhibited by Listie's music:
12
13* {{Chiptune}}: Of the "Fakebit" variety; Listie used to upload "MIDIS shoved through GXSCC".
14* FaceOnTheCover: Some of Listie's album covers exhibit this trope. One example is the cover for “Aozora Jumping Starboy”, which features a character from ''Franchise/{{Love Live}}''.
15* GenreShift: Listie's mashups are completely different from the chiptune remixes that were posted on the old channel.
16* IdiosyncraticCoverArt: The covers for the μ’score mashups all have the same μ’score logo, just with different backgrounds.
17* {{Leitmotif}}: Listie uses [[Franchise/LoveLive "Guilty Night, Guilty Kiss!"]] in several mashups.
18* MinimalisticCoverArt: The cover for “Dead [=InPSY=]” is the word "Listie" in all-caps with the song's title beneath it.
19* OneWordTitle
20* OrphanedSeries: In [[https://youtu.be/Jl83tduFbRM "Some Second Channel Kinda Thing"]], Listie announces the new channel and says that they will still make chiptune remixes. Listie never made any more chiptunes after that video, presumably due to a lack of interest.
21* {{Portmantitle}}: The cover for [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5dMHCwlAnts "The 8-Bit Beatles - Other Stuff"]] spells the title as "The 8-Bitles" (8-bit + Beatles).
22* RuleOfFun: Listie's only justification for including Guilty Kiss in "Title (Halo 9 Mix) - The Flintstones in Viva Rock Vegas" is that it sounds nice.
23* ShoutOut:
24** Listie's banner features Lacey Shadows from ''WesternAnimation/{{The Modifyers}}'' dressed as Noodle from the Music/{{Gorillaz}} music video "Saturnz Barz".
25** Listie's previous banner is a reference to ''VideoGame/TazWanted'' and its loading screens.
26** ''Finally The School Idols Are Taking Acid'' references the Music/FlamingLips compilation ''Finally The Punk Rockers Are Taking Acid''.
27* {{Tagline}}: "Audacity made mashups since 2015™."
28* {{Tradesnark}}: There's a trademark at the end of the {{tagline}}.
