recommended releases
Verian Thomas - Miniatures [nsi003]
Verian’s describes the album as an “attempt to capture those moments of childhood existing only in memory which, when recalled, cause a slight tightening of the chest at the realisation of things lost, and to capture the beauty of those moments in sound”
No point in adding anything else really because that’s exactly what I thought about when listening to this.
AY Riders - ZX Spectrum is Alive [8bp043]
I love the idea of being able to make innovative music using an old obsolete games system, so I’ve been looking for ages for some great chip tunes. Here’s a great album of music made using only a ZX Spectrum. It’s got the trademark 8-bit sounds but the tracks are amazingly well sculpted from the technology. Proves that less can mean more when it comes to music
