Goto80 - Digi-Dig

catchy chip music is everywhere, but none seem to incorporate experimental and glitch elements while STAYING catchy as well as Goto80. Listen to "Datahell" and you will see what I mean ;)

Peer - Dances EP

the few readers of my blog who are not too into the whole noise thing have probably been waiting for something a little more melodic, so here we go. some very nice melodic chiptunes written on two (2) gameboys, with a great sense of rhythm as well! best of all, you can download it FREE (as in BEER) over here: http://pierre.slinckx.net/dances/

if you have already bought it on the black market for 20 dollars, uh, you kinda got ripped off dude.

p.s. this is the first time i actually had to upload my own audio, and it may have been a bit altered in the compression process, so you might wanna check out the actual track if you want full accuracy. uh, woo for being obscure :s

EDIT: Video didn't upload correctly, sorry everyone :(

I recommend downloading the album, I mean, its free anyways :P

Katamari Game Series - Katamari Fortissimo Damacy

Today I felt like doing something a bit different, just to get off to a good start and let you know that this blog is NOT focused on one genre or another. This is, in my opinion, the catchiest game soundtrack in the history of game soundtracks, and makes for a great listen on it's own as well. Each song is quirky but fun in it's own unique way, very much like the game itself. Not focusing on one specific style, the soundtrack of the Katamari Damacy video game is quite varied and interesting throughout, and it is easy to see how much work was put into each track, taking influences from everything from Japanese Pop to Drum n' Bass.
