Power up and plug in: Nelson Comes To Visit delivers sparkly hardcore ripping through American decline with soaring synths, chiptune riffs, and crushing guitars on their searing third LP. Song for a Gorgeous Blonde launches a glitchy experimental synth excursion evoking retro rockets and control panels, while Lakitunes drops 100 Famitracker NES tracks — the largest NES album you will ever see — and also ignites Flare-Up of Funk, a self-described banger that needs no further explanation. Britelite rounds things out with remastered Commodore 64 chiptunes forged at the Assembly demoparty across a decade of legendary competition.
Chiptune releases
“A glitchy synth excursion meant to evoke a retro world of rockets, airplanes and control panels”
“This nostalgic two-track single is a tribute to the creators of Pong, Ralph Baer, Nolan Bushnell and Alan Alcorn, but it also evokes my childhood, enjoy!”
