    The T stands for TOUGH

    But he has also seemingly quit 8bit? Via his Myspace:

    Sorry for all inconvenience regarding buying my CD.  All tracks from “Man Of The Year” are now available in a zip file that you can download here:

    And earlier this week he posted:

    TUGBOAT HAS CHANGED

    The 8-bit stuff was fun but now I am moving on towards other things.

    Here’s hoping his new stuff is due soon, whether it be chip or otherwise.

    EDIT: now on CDKRecords (no its not a record)

  • This Week at the Collective IV – Back in the Habbit

    Welcome to another edition of “This week at the collective IV – part 4”.  I have to say, based on listening to about 160 songs this week, about 150 of which were NL 1.3 and LSDJ 3.7.5 (update?) i have decided that after this week, i am not going to listen to any more gameboy songs, unless they were done in gameboy MML.

    That being said, this week is set up based on audio technology lines.  Get on your lines, and insert your audio technology!  HERE — WE — GO!
