Wow! Något har hänt prod.mässigt! Låter grymt, de låtar jag hört hittils. Välbalanserade mixar med guror i framkant, så so sig bör. Nyfiken på hur trummor gjorts. Härlig clav på första låten
Tack! Kul att höra! Trummorna är en ljudfont som jag spelar för hand på keyboarden. Svinmycket jobb. :) Sen har jag suttit och justerat tajming och dynamik för hand. Ännu mer jobb. Men det blir hyfsat autentiskt.

Nintendosploitation

Released 23 June 2005

My second record, comprised of freely rearranged renditions of some of my (and hopefully some of your) favourite NES tunes, inspired by early '70s Blaxploitation and rock music. Many of the tracks have elements of Led Zeppelin, Jimi Hendrix, Barry White and other groovy artists from the times of funk, that you may recognize if you're crazy enough... Note: several tracks are directly segued into the next, which explains a couple of abrupt intros and outros if heard separately.

Sex, Drugs and Nintendo

Released August 2004

This was my first attempt at covering NES songs, and they turned out pretty decent for what they are — straight and short covers of the originals played on guitar and piano with the occasional solo/improvisation.

Track three ogg is down!
This album only has ogg files at the moment. I guess I should add flacs and mp3s, but I think it's such a lame album that I can't bother with it for now. The Wizards link has been fixed. Thanks for your comments!

I'm interested in the Flac files too! Please bring them back, I really like this album :(
Thanks for your appreciation! I don't have any flac files ready, but I'll see when I get the time to encode some.
