  • Buskerdroid – Gameboy Love EP|

    Buskerdroid – Gameboy Love EP|

    Gameboy Love EP is the new album by the hyperactive Italian chiptuner Buskerdroid. It comprises 5 tracks made exclusively using the LSDJ software.

    This 16th original Da! Heard It Records production is back to the basics : 8bit music!

    Buskerdroid offers his listeners some serious energy through his doped-up sounds. Taking no prisoners, he drags his Gameboy into the most unexpected corners by creating hybrid tracks combining 8bit and hardtek.

    Gameboy Love EP will leave you breathless, it’s short, clear and concise, leaving the listener in an over-excited, confused and crazed state of mind. The title track 3D(istortion), to mention just one,submerge the listener into an absurd universe thanks to its relentless rythm and throbbing melody.

    Gameboy Love EP is meant for connoisseurs of the chiptune movement, but also for fanatics of much more violent electro styles.

    Lucid – Mr. Spastic

    The third release at 8bitpeoples from Mr. Spastic named Lucid represents an album of works meant to express conscious and unconscious dreams. It is a departure from earlier works in style with the addition of vocal compositions. Rhythmically more downtempo, the release aims to appeal to the pensive dreamer. Sleep well.
