Patrick Gann of Original Sound Version reviews my album “The Aftermath”. He also says very nice things about it!
Chiptunes, as a category of music, somehow has the capability despite its limitations to evoke a full range of emotions and states of mind. For the most part, though, the most successful chiptune artists make music that allows the listener to clear away all nagging thoughts and enjoy the present state. In other words, “let’s party.”
In stark contrast to this line of music are songs like our own Zen Albatross’ “April 10th,” which nearly demands the listener to pay attention and — to quote Winnie the Pooh — think think think. An artist whose work recently caught my attention for carrying on the tradition of “chiptunes for the analytical” is Samuel Abram, aka Iron Curtain. His first LP, “The Aftermath” dropped at the tail end of 2011.

This happened two fridays ago (on the 13th of April). Knife City (a.k.a. Luke Silas, the drummer of Anamanaguchi) made a remix of my track “Mekkwarrior”. This is just too awesome for words! I honestly can’t wait until the remix is available for download!
Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you.
A chat between two people.
- Person1: Hello.
- Person2: Hello.
- Person1: Goodbye.
- Person2: Goodbye.
Let’s stop these horrible, oppressive trade agreements and laws that do nothing for ordinary folk.
