8 Bit Antics


I'm a bit of a geek and a retro gaming enthusiast, and whilst recently visiting Bletchley Park I came accross a CD in the gift shop called The Boy With The Digital Heart by Pixelh8. I've been listening to it a fair bit since, if you're not aware of what he does, he reverse engineers electronic toys and random computer game sound effects to make instrumentals. Any how, this has inspired me to do something similar myself, and after reading a few tutorials I've discovered I can get the old 8-bit Mario, Double Dragon type sound out of Reason by tweaking the SubTractor so I'm in the process of re-recording one of my old tracks Seattle's Filled With Stars, which I'm gonna release next Friday at Aidy.com.
