A Game Geek Museum

Monday, April 23rd, 2007

Remember my post on the cool 8 bit website intro?. Well, iam 8-BiT opened their new exhibit.
I strongly suggest you visit Gallery 1988 in LA before May 13, 2007, because then it will be too late. If the thought of an 8-bit exhibit isn’t enticing enough, take a look at the pictures. Some are pornographic.

Wednesday, April 11th, 2007

Get it right here.
Pretty good stuff, just in time for… Wednesday. Well, go click and download, and enjoy your high frequency sensitivity while you still got it. These tracks range from the enjoyable, the kind that you wonder how it would sound at 16bit, to the very experimental.

Where 8 bit music can go

Monday, March 12th, 2007

Hello, nerds. If this post seems to arrive later than usual, just imagine me posting this one hour earlier if daylight savings didn’t take place.
You might, however waste some time either way with some of these videos on chiptunes which I found:

New To Chip Tunes?

Tuesday, December 12th, 2006

Or just can’t get enough?
Here is a very nice discography of the 8 Bit Peoples label with links to the mp3, most of them released under a Creative Commons license. Along with the mp3s are the album covers for you to print out. Nice! They are small but still complete pixel art, so you can […]
