V.A - My Plastic Heart

By Peter Swimm, on February 19th, 2010

I was going to wait until Saturday to release this along with the Nanovoice compilation, but I’m impatient. So, here it is after almost three years in the making. A compilation about love, loss, lust, robots, androids, automatons and our love for machines real or imaginary.

Weezer: The 8-bit Album

By tctdbot, on July 20th, 2009

Pterodactyl Squad just released an 8-bit tribute to Weezer featuring the likes of Bit Shifter, Anamanaguchi, Rabato, Tugboat, nordloef and more…

“Do you remember that dream you had, where the sound chips from the beloved games consoles of your youth all got together and formed a Weezer tribute band? Yeah? No? OK. That dream is about to come true whether you had it or not.

The songs on this compilation have mostly been created using original videogame hardware running home-brew software, and vary radically in style, from minimal compositions to 8-bit inspired full band performances. Pterodactyl Squad proudly presents the music of Weezer as you have never heard it before.”

Available now from here.

20y Released!

By Peter Swimm, on June 8th, 2009

News of a”new” demo for the Game Boy DMG. Details:

20y – Release note: This demo is intended to be run on either the DMG, Pocket or the SGB. It’s not compatible with GBC nor GBA and will produce graphical glitches when run on the latter systems. This demo relies heavily on the precise quirks of the hardware it’s supposed to run on, and there’s currently no emulator that is 100% accurate. So if you haven’t the means to use real hardware I’d strongly recommend BGB (bgb.bircd.org) as it is the only emulator to my knowledge that only has a few minor issues with the demo, and they are barely noticeable. If you are using a flashcart make sure that you do not create a multicard but send it as a single bootable image instead; Otherwise you’ll miss part of the intro.
