As Roland walked on through the desolation, he was acutely aware that he had lost something intangible. His only clues came to him by way of the DMG in his pocket. The lamprey was willing, for the moment, to help him search the debris for the small cartridges that fit into the DMG, each one supplying a new, crucial piece of information. The hidden truth would be thus revealed to him slowly, in sequence.
Blip Festival 2007

BIO
Glomag has been making 8 bit music since 2001. He has performed in France, Belgium, Austria, Spain, Canada and the US. His music has played in films, on television and on the internet. The machinima series This Spartan Life, which he writes and directs as well, features his music as well as music from other 8 Bit artists.
The 8 Bit Community is on fire these days. What can one say? The Blip Festival, the 8 Bit Peoples comp and now this? FTMFW!
Glomag contributes a version of "Pocket Calculator" to this super cool comp.

0x7f, Bit Shifter, firestARTer, glomag, Hey Kid Nice Robot, Ladybug, M-.-n, Nullsleep, Psilodump, Random, Sidabitball, and David E Sugar.
Rocking the B Side with "The Robots" are the original L.A. gangsta robots, 8 Bit.
