Remember back when your nintendo (or atari if you’re an old fart) was your only friend? In those days, music was a simpler thing. 8 bit masterpieces let you know if Mario was underwater or if you were about to lose your Tetris marathon.
If only there were a full length Christmas album inspired by that amazing style.
OH SHIT THERE IS!!
I like to imagine this is the soundtrack to an old nintendo game where Santa Claus sidescrolls through wintery levels in a mission to save baby Jesus from some evil wise men. That’s neither here nor there.
If you like chiptunes or old video games, you won’t want to miss Rush Coil’s 8-Bit Christmas, an album of holiday music inspired by the golden age of video game music.You can stream the entire album online. Don’t miss the 8-bit Deck The Halls.
There’s no plan for a CD release, but Rush Coil says “I will be offering a digital download of high quality music files soon with some bonus material, commentary, as well as additional music.” (Via Synthopia)
