New favorite style of music, oh lawdy
So thanks to the guys over at Penny Arcade and their fantastic webseries, I've become a huge fan of the chiptune/8-bit genre almost over night.
My favorite guys right now are
Alex Mauer: http://headlessbarbie.com/
Henry Winstanley: http://www.failotron.org/winstanley/
Cheap Dinosaur: http://www.myspace.com/cheapdinosaurs
StarCitySecrets: http://www.myspace.com/starcitysecrets
Stat: http://www.myspace.com/statikz
and Oven Rake: http://www.myspace.com/ovenrake
I also downloaded a huge collection of music form 8-Bit People, so that gave me an additional 500 songs to listen to.
I don't know why this genre appeals to me so much. I think it is has something to do with my recently acquiring that ridiculous keyboard. This is the kind of music that I can create, and wnat to try making on day.
Anyway, thought I'd share my new love :D
