Spectrum 48 Demo and Chiptune Album

posted by Yerzmyey

Irrlicht Project let me know about his the newest ZX48 demo and album with chiptune music.

His original txt:
"40 minutes of obscure, melodic 1-bit music somewhat influenced by 70s prog rock, metal, and darker flavours of chiptune. Made for and recorded from ZX Spectrum 48K."

Really good music work, so check it out dudez. Or druzja. Or pratele. Or Freunde. Or Amigos. And so on.
