(as happy as is possible under the circumstances)
Happy birthday!
It’s no coincidence that there’s a whole chiptune scene based specifically around the DMG-01
Makin’ something stompy
On the train so doing the Lord’s work
Ooooohhhh

*NEW THEME*
Get out your guitars for some pop punk or, on the contrary, to serenade the one you secretly love in the classroom next door.
In any case, the theme is high school, so let's go!

Happy International Women's Day!
Today is an especially good day to celebrate the women and femmes in your life. Buy them a coffee, send them flowers, promote their projects, just drop them a note to tell them how much they mean to you.
Uplift women, fight the patriarchy, today and every day.
Gosh I suck at composition but it’s still so much fun smooshing instrumentation together
How dare you respond to art differently to someone else
Picked up the M8 again for the first time in a while. It’s good to noodle again 🎵
Encore Une Fois (SASH!, 1997)
Oh yeah this title generator is fun
lol
If anyone is up for boosting, Bandcamp is holding a fundraiser for the Trans Continental Pipeline to help trans people escape from Kansas!
The Neuromancer album is as awesome as it is free. (i.e. Very)
It’s BandCamp Friday again so be sure to check out my discography which is 75% off. Tons of M8 Tracker project files and LSDJ .sav files come with it as a bonus! Or if you haven’t already, grab my Neuromancer inspired album for free. disposableplanet.bandcamp.com/album/the-co... #chiptune
Confusingly there’s a Mega Drive Lotus II which actually looks to be a port of Lotus III
I got into Beefheart through hearing that specific track!
I’m pretty sure I’ve done the 6 and nope, not yet
Just remembered Broadway the Hard way is also a good’un
Nice! Enjoy!
If you’re interested in exploring Beefheart further (assuming you’re unfamiliar) most people will recommend Trout Mask Replica. I personally find it hard going, and would suggest Spotlight Kid/Clear Spot, Bat Chain Puller and Ice Cream for Crow as being more accessible (albeit still uneven)
I’ve only listened to a dozen or so of his albums but the quality jumps all over the place. I’d recommend Waka/Jawaka and Make a Jazz Noise Here. The Cheap Thrills compilations are also if you’re after an overall Zappa taster
YES. That ratcheting noise is such a weird choice but sits perfectly in the track
I completely agree, Bomberman is a fantastic mp game. SWOS is a great pick - one of the most responsive and immediate sports games ever made. I loved Speedball 2 as well, though have to concede it’s a little clunky to play now
