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
