big giant circles Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Step 1) Watch this awesome video that José the Bronx Rican put together: Step 2) Click one of the following and listen to it: http://music.biggiantcircles.com/ http://www.ubiktune.org/releases/ubi028-big-giant-circles-impostor-nostalgia Step 3) Go to http://impostornostalgia.com where you can buy the album from bandcamp (digital of physical), iTunes, Amazon, or CD Baby and or tell your friends! Notable Notes that are Noteworthy: -20 tracks total (including 3 bonus tracks) -Over 75 minutes of retro-inspired goodness -It's only $4! -A total disgrace to authentic chiptune artists everywhere -11 total special guests, featuring collaborations by Chris Geehan (of Hyperduck Soundworks) C418 (of Minecraft OST fame) Souleye (the mind behind the brilliant VVVVVV OST) Pongball (you might know her as OC ReMixer Halebopp's wife) zircon (I have no idea who this guys is. sum n00b.)

Nuff said.) and featuring remixes by Mick Gordon (OC ReMixer N-JekteD, writes music for Need for Speed) flashygoodness (wrote the OST for Tower of Heaven) Surasshu (recent Tree of Knowledge soundtrack) Josh Whelchel (OC ReMixer and Songs for the Cure mastermind) -Possible cameo shoutouts to classic video games (look for them!) -awesome artwork by Blake "Protodome" Troise -dinosaurs -ninjas -chocolate and peanut butter -cake -Sweden -Batman -the Milky Way -paper clips -I think I might be rambling. But the point is, I think it's got a little of something for everyone, especially if you like video game music, indie games, classic games, modern electronic music, and a number of other things. This is my first album release and I really hope you like it! Thanks so much for all your support! Love, BGC Press: Original Sound Version - "We’ve given the album a listen, and immediately fell in love..." ThaSauce - "album of epic proportions... worth every penny!" Game Music 4 All - "This album has been long in the making, and it certainly shows in the quality of the work." WingDamage - "Seriously. It’s really good." NerdAppropriate - "Did we mention the album is pretty damn incredible? ... You will not be disappointed." New awesome fanart Wallpaper by Keyamoon (the guy who did the theme for my website). It's so good I included it in the digital album on bandcamp:) http://t.co/fyhOAmA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gario Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 9-bit goodness. Tasty, tasty 9-bit goodness. I can afford five bucks for this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoadiePC Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Listened to "Super VVVVVVeat Boy". Sold. [edit] ...By the way, I'm one of those guys who's always down to get free music, but never has enough scratch to support the scene and actually BUY. I just wanted to say that four bucks going in to support AWESOME music, along with a portion going to help a helluva tear-jerking story(your sister & her husband FTW), is a deal that can not, and SHOULD not, be missed. Ten bucks for ten tracks? I can't do it(not right now, anyway). However, four bucks for TWENTY tracks, with names like BGC, Zirc, and Souleye--Can't beat it with a stick. I guess what I'm saying is that I approve of your pricepoint, and wanted to support it. Listening to the rest of the album, I'm glad I did.

Koriantor Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Great stuff! Just sitting here listening to it and having a blast. Definitely some inspiring tunes. And 4 bucks is a very generous price, most definitely worth it. Thanks Jimmy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, this is not ok, I'm afraid you're going to have to go back and try again until you get it right. Thanks guys! #1 on bandcamp, wow! Let's see if it has any staying power!

zircon Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 It's not often that an original album does some genuinely unique stuff and has a coherent feel, especially with so many guest artists. But Jimmy did it. ZIRCON STAMP OF APPROVAL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
