Dropping by with my thumbs-up for Mokram's mockups. Have you guys ever considered collaborating with Fangamer for merch? I've got a few of their products and I'm pretty impressed with the quality. Given their fan-community-driven approach to game merchandise seems like this would be a good match.

Show is on the air! http://areciboradio.com/ Got some great tracks lined up for you guys this week!

Agreed. This will always be the best version, though.

Surprised that no one has made a thread for this here yet. http://minibosses.bandcamp.com/album/brass-2-mouth Listen for free on Bandcamp, snag the digital download for $9, or pre-order the limited edition 180g vinyl in a gatefold sleeve for $35.

http://philadelphia.thedelimagazine.com/snacks Philly chip musician Chipocrite is in the running to be featured artist of the month on The Deli Philadelphia. There's LESS THAN ONE DAY LEFT, and the votes are REALLY close, and he could use all the help he could get. Hmm, looks like my last post in this thread was also soliciting votes...

Open Circuit is on the air! Got quite a few video game tracks queued up this week, so tune in! http://areciboradio.com/

Gonna play some tunes from this tonight on Open Circuit.

I like this. A lot. Well done, gents!

There's been a lot of comments of that sort showing up. Personally I'm disappointed by the lack of TMNT III, which in my mind is a stellar soundtrack the entire way through. Despite the effort put in to reduce nostalgia bias and cover some of the more overlooked titles, you can see that there's still quite a few entries from the popular titles (the Mega Man and Castlevania series in particular.) I'm not surprised by this, and I can't deny how great the soundtracks are, but I would have liked to see more dark horse titles show up. For example, Shizzie Auriplane pointed out this great track from a really obscure game (Tantei Jinguuji Saburou 4? Has anyone here ever heard of that before?). That said, I'm really happy to see that Silver Surfer track near the top of the list. Such an impressive track, for technical AND musical reasons. Can you believe that drum sound is composed entirely of the triangle wave and noise channel, and DOESN'T use samples?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hhIuE32MA5s Earlier this year, a friend (any shizzies here know him as streifig) and I made this cover of the theme from the movie Siberiade, originally composed by Edward Artemiev. We originally released it on the Concatenation Records compilation A Chip off the Shizz Block vol. 3, but I recently made a video for the song (mostly as an excuse to share the song around...). I took care of the NES elements (it's actually recorded from the real hardware, which is a first for me) and the mixing/mastering, and streifig completely blew my mind with multiple layers of guitar, ranging from ambient drones to a double-tracked solo. I consider this to be by far the best piece of music I've ever hand a hand in creating. The music video is made up of public domain archival footage of fires, sort of as a homage to the scene in the original film where this song is used.

Showtime in 10 minutes! http://areciboradio.com/

I stayed up until 3 am last night listening to this on repeat. So damn good.

$175? Really? I'm going to be in Ottawa in early January, and that's a hell of a lot cheaper than the flights I was looking at.

So much win right there.
