Pimp My Chips

This week saw the release of the long awaited Ate Bit musicdisk, Pimp My Chips – featuring a selection of Spectrum covers of classic pop songs. Musical contributions came from Mofobaru, Simon, Nik-O and myself, and the full pack is well worth a download if you’re suitably Windows-executable-equipped. If you don’t, or you’re more of an instant-gratification-click-and-listen type (or a stick-it-on-your-mp3-player type), here are my tracks as friendly bandwidth-hogging MP3s.

  1. Some of the best chip music I’ve heard. Those for a penchant for psychoacoustics can appreciate Matt’s natural ability to fill every last nuance of an AY Chip with the most dominant parts of a mix.

    Paranoid Android is my fave here, but it’s pretty much all class.

    That paranoid android cover is pretty much spot on. Excellent work Matt.

    Paranoid Android is awesome.

    How about a download we can load into a Spectrum, too? I’d love to show off my 128k toastrack to lesser mortals playing Paranoid Android!

    Superb. I’ve sent the Paranoid Android cover to Colin Murray’s Black Hole on Radio 1 to see if they’ll play it. They’ve recently had a penchant for playing Radiohead covers so you never know…
