Thu, 20 November 2008 As music gets more and more heavily produced, there's a growing group of artists who are experimenting with technology from the primitive early days of gaming. 8-bit can refer to a style of electornic inspired by the sound of old computer consoles from the 8 bit era of video games. This music will often reflect sounds from technology that is seen as primitive or "outdated" such as the Game Boy, Atari and Activision systems and home made synthesizers. DJ Anonymity (I hope I spelled that correctly) brings you some incredible retro-inspired music with new twists. Take a time trip back to the 80s with FRESH CARTRIDGE, the first in a series called 8 BIT CHIPPER CHANNEL.

Wed, 19 November 2008 From craphound.com: Marcus, a.k.a “w1n5t0n,” is only seventeen years old, but he figures he already knows how the system works–and how to work the system. Smart, fast, and wise to the ways of the networked world, he has no trouble outwitting his high school’s intrusive but clumsy surveillance systems. But his whole world changes when he and his friends find themselves caught in the aftermath of a major terrorist attack on San Francisco. In the wrong place at the wrong time, Marcus and his crew are apprehended by the Department of Homeland Security and whisked away to a secret prison where they’re mercilessly interrogated for days. When the DHS finally releases them, Marcus discovers that his city has become a police state where every citizen is treated like a potential terrorist. He knows that no one will believe his story, which leaves him only one option: to take down the DHS himself. REVIEWER/VOICEOVER: Kyera Landry Comments[0] |
