for the original songs, i'd say bad religion, old suicide machines, and old green day (new stuff's gonna be a little more brutal if i ever get around to recording again). for the NES covers, obviously old-school NES music

REALLY OLD NEWS

''Last Sunday evening, President Roosevelt sat comfortably down before a microphone in his upstairs study at the White House, ground out a cigarette stub, and proceeded to broadcast to the nation a neighborly 15-minute talk on banks & banking. On the morrow the country's sound banks were to start reopening...'' (AP)
PIXEL PARTY se complace en presentarles directamente desde santiago de chile al dj productor: THEEGO (BRASIL/CHILE) (Buddy Records, BluSaphir Records, Nu Horizons)
In the early age of video games, composers who had to make due with extremely limited technological resources -- unable to write more than one note at a time for some consoles -- still managed to craft tunes that stuck in the craws of many a player, perhaps more by virtue of repetition than any inherent catchiness. As technology advances, nostalgia keeps the obsolescent alive, and what was once necessary can become a voluntary constraint. Contemporary "chiptune" musicians recreate and reinvent the music of those early video games, sometimes using programs that emulate those original sounds, sometimes the original systems. Chicago musician William Sides, who will perform Aug. 23 at the Melody Inn, 3826 N. Illinois St., as William Sides Atari Party, plays both newer synthesizers and the Atari Synthcart, a program for the Atari 2600 that allows the user to control each oscillator with a joystick, making beats and melodies in real time. Two local experimental groups that work from a broader array of instruments -- PONS and Imaginary Friends -- will join Sides. Concert is at 9 p.m., with a $5 cover. Info: www.melodyindy.com.
