Inspired by the Blip Festival a couple of weeks ago I created a neat little chip tune"album" I am calling Sunday AFternoon Sunshine. I don't quite have an 8-bit set-up just yet (I pulling my old Atari STf buddy out of the garage for some much needed love), I cheated a little bit by using Reason (I'm getting into the spirit) with a little help from a tutorial (@ Steelberry Clones) I found by Judson “Tettix” Cowan. After watching the first video of the tutorial I was able to set up a few instruments that exhibited an 8-bit sound. After dabbling with the sounds for a little bit, I set out to create a track before rushing off to work an hour and a half later. I am hoping to get a few more mixes together as well as some additional tracks in the near future. Until then enjoy! :D

Last Thursday Tim and I drove up to Brooklyn for the annual Blip Festival. It was a total blast. Neither the photos to follow nor any downloaded recordings of the event can convey the awesome energy of the music presented that nigh. Regardless, I wanted to share some glimpses of that night with these photos (taken with my iPhone).
