Today on the FMA: Covox

By , on August 11th, 2009

Just in time for his massive US tour, check out one of my favorite releases of 2007!

Covox, Thomas Söderlund to his parents, is one of those chiptune artists that doesn’t particularity SOUND like any video game music you ever heard. Owing more to artists like early New Order or DAF, this weeks FMA release finds the typical Game Boy tones mixed, albini-like through a series of recording tricks reserved for bass, guitars, or vocals.

This week on the FMA: AY-Riders

By , on August 4th, 2009

fma-legal-music-5“Existing as a subculture within the larger chipmusic ghetto can have interesting side effects. The multi artist collective AY Riders, many whom operate in Eastern European countries like Poland and Russia, have developed a strange divergent chip culture, platypus like, around the ZX Spectrum computer.”

Today on the FMA: little-scale

By , on July 28th, 2009

lillittle-scale is one of those infuriating super geniuses that seems to be good at everything he does. He designs and builds hardware synths based on old segas, nintendos and ataris, he organizes compilations and gigs spotlighting a ever growing talent pool made up of his fellow Australians, and most importantly makes some of the most interesting and challenging music in the international chip community.

This week on the FMA: 8GB

By , on July 14th, 2009

akira_lowSummer fun is distracting, but we have another FMA profile this week,  8gb:

Speaking of globetrotting, this weeks artist, 8GB is a well seasoned world traveler himself, playing shows throughout Europe and the United States before recently returning to his native Argentina. His style owes far more to the electronic and dance scenes then to anything from retro game music, and you need only checkout this release from 8bitpeoples to get a glimpse of his raw beat making prowess.
