8 Bit Music


Are you an 80s child who grew up loving computer games like Goonies and Super Mario? Or were you a Game Boy slave in the 90s? If yes then you'd probably have a place in your heart for 8 Bit Music, otherwise known as chipstyle sounds. Can't figure out what I'm talking about? I couldn't embed the song file here but you can click here to listen to the music sampler. Prepare to be taken back to the good old days...

The song is produced by Random, and you can view his artist profile by clicking here. He is one of the 11 crew of this cool website 8BitPeoples, where their ultimate goal is to "just have fun".

According to the website:

"The 8bitpeoples first came together in 1999 as a collective of artists sharing a common love for classic videogames and an approach to music which reflected this obsession. Our primary interests were to provide quality music for free and most importantly to have fun."

But then you've got to see it to believe it. So go check the site.

Random also has his own website so don't forget to check it out: Random.se
