Vague memories swirl... being a kid in the 90s. Metallic hi hats and fuzzy drums set the pace as my ears were exposed to wondrous sounds. Unforgettable melodies programmed across a vast ocean, imprinted in neural networks forged in the heart of the 16 bit era. The majority of my music career has served as a love letter to downsampled timbres, so it's only right that I finally pay homage down to the kilobyte, looping less than a megabyte. On this collection you'll find my renditions of some lesser known Nintendo compositions alongside a selection of all time classics, with some of my own cartridge-infused offerings sprinkled in for good measure. Get equipped with 16 Bit Ones!
Run Time: 32:32
Mostly recorded with a Synergy I synthesizer, a rare instrument manufactured between 1982 and 1985 that runs off cartridges, just like the Super Nintendo!
