The Dark Side Of The NES

March 30th, 2010 by Sean

Have you ever wondered what Dark Side of the Moon would sound like if Pink Floyd had written it for the Nintendo NES?

Thanks to the hard work of Canadian Brad Smith, he’s remixed the entire album in 8-bit Nintendo glory:

Pink Floyd’s Dark Side of the Moon is an all-time rock classic, but that’s provided you’re listening to it on a record or CD, until now.

For those wondering, it’s available for download from the MOON8 project site.

Rush Coil – 8-bit Christmas

December 5th, 2009 by Sean

Not only am I a fan of video games, I’m also a huge fan of video game music. All anyone has to do is take a look at my Apple iPod to see that.

Now that the holidays are upon us it’s only appropriate to have some video game themed Christmas music to rock around the Christmas tree.

This album 100% inspired by games. It’s Rush Coil’s “8-bit Christmas”:

8-Bit Christmas

There are 12 tracks in all on the album. You can sample them at the official web page and it’s also available to purchase for $4.00 USD.

If you use last.fm, be sure to check out the Rush Coil last.fm page too.

January 16th, 2009 by Sean

As always, I love my Apple iPod’s shuffle feature. Having so much music, I would normally forget about classic tunes like this gem by The Romones.

Gee, thanks iPod shuffle feature. Who knew the metal band Quiet Riot had a ballad on the Metal Health album? Not me apparently.

My trusty Apple iPod does it again. Queensrche “One and Only” off of the album “Empire”. Geoff Tate has some amazing vocals. I love this album.

Just now the song “Long Way Down” by the Goo Goo Dolls started to play. The shuffle feature on my iPod rocks.
