Frostbyte - Codex
:D After two years, here is the music we've all been waiting for. As Frostbyte puts it,
“It’s my magnum opus you know? I wanted to make sure that it was going to make a statement, that it was going to be a solid, fully cohesive album; one that there’s no filler tracks, where there’s nothing that makes you want to skip a song.” Frosty goes on to say, “Basically I want it to be more than just an album. I want it to be a tribute to all that I’ve taken away from my time in the community; I’ve learned so much, met so many people, made so many friends. I’ve grown so much from the community, and this is my way of giving back.”
Hope you all enjoy :)

SYNAPSE: OMG WHAT WAS I THINKING
Of course there's new chip dance stuff! HOW COULD I FORGET THIS BEAST
You all know Treyfrey, I'm sure. He's my hero, he should be yours too. This man can write nothing bad. I'd listen to him practice scales and be amazed at his sound design. Point is, he released a new single.
GIVE IT SOME LOVE BABY

RADLIB. IS. NUTS.
There's really not much I can say about this besides I wish I could figure out Adlib tracker. I just suck at it, period.
I'll let cTrix do the talking, since he put this thing together with some help from friends.
"This is a 36 minute, fully edited, mixed and fully mastered live coverage of Radlib's magnificent set from Blip. It's on Vimeo for best vid / aud quality.

- Shot on 5 cameras bootleg style (don't underestimate what a few Powershot's / IXUS's can do!)
- Microphones placed in audience / on stage + feed from on-stage DJ mixer
- Highest quality workflow until web encoder (which has done an amazing job of keeping sound and vision intact)"

CHILLBRAVE - Vengeance Valley
4 DMGS. Seriously. Four actual gameboys made this song. Written by a mixture of Kedromelon and Popstar. This song is just too rad to really describe accuratley. It's not often when really really good electro comes out, but this really nails it. Talking to Kedromelon about the process, he says it was really hard to get good compromises, especially because their styles are so different. Kedromelon is all electro and dancey and punchy and full of technical prowess, and Popstar's all about those long notes and basically what Kedromelon isn't. The track is fueled by two totally different artists coming together in harmony, on this incredibly ballin track.
The intro is long, but sooooo worth it. The first drop is where it's at. From then on, you're just getting pure goodness out of it. Seriously, this thing is such a ridiculous release. Love it. It's worth a full listen, so:
GO DO THAT
Labels:

Frostbyte - 2012 is now FREE!
Hey guys! So I realized that I hate being forced to pay for music, and that's exactly what I did with 2012. I don't want to keep my songs away from people who don't have money for them. So here it is, Frostbyte 2012 again, but for free this time :)
