New York City's Bit Shifter weighs in with a blitzkrieg strike of weaponized square waves, delivered from a twin Nintendo Game Boy assault rig. Exemplifying a bracing distillation of the less-is-more philosophy, Bit Shifter embraces limitations and rejects overstated indulgences in favor of the streamlined environments of the Nanoloop and Little Sound DJ home-brew Game Boy musicmaking programs. Armed only with two 20-year-old handhelds, Bit Shifter leaves high-end computer music choking on his exhaust, bringing twice the rock with 0.

Bit of an oldie, but I feel like it's maybe got a little staying power. Produced on an off-the-shelf Nintendo Game Boy using the Little Sound DJ tracker software. And an FYI for any physical-format music enthusiasts & collectors — the EP this track is from (titled Information Chase) has just been pressed to vinyl too, with a really cool die-cut sleeve. More info & ordering options on my Bandcamp page.more

Significance
This track came together with a little help from my new and beloved ASM Hydrasynth, a truly remarkable device that I will be using extensively in the future.more

Departure
What can I say? I'm a sucker for this kind of music. Once I found the guitar sample, this one came together pretty fast. One of my personal favorites so far.more
