Keyboard Magazine Reviews 8 Bit Family

 

Crispy, crunchy, crappy. Three adjectives that well describe the sound of the vintage videogames to whichi this collection pays loving tribute. The crazy character of classic game sounds is preserved, but music material and composition are new and entirely original. (Omission) "8 bit family" that deliver large amounts of metallic-sound moves through wicked arpeggios, wacky riffs, drum grooves nuttier than any dinkity-doink analog beatbox., and a great assortment of sound effects, as well as the individual drum hit.

More adjectives: filthy, hard aggressive, comical, wild, silly.(Omission) "8 bit family" is a grand slam, and more than worthy of a Key Buy Award . - Mr. KEN HUGHES
