Yeah, that triangle bass is weird - mostly because I can't figure out what about my tiangle sample is different than how the chip itself processes it.  It's also worth noting that it's mastered, so it's not an exact output export.  That said, I think Toni did a righteous job maintaining the legit-NES-ness while really smoothing out the sound.

And if you think I cheated a bit with the triangle, listen to the noise channel   I'm using waaaaay too many pitches. 

Thanks dudes

NES styled VGM done right. Ebert & Roper give 2 thumbs WAYYYYYYY UP

I had a double take moment when something was impossible in fami (tri bass changing sounds) and read the interview to see what was used. This is an excellent release that totally nails NES textures. Cheers!

Epic fantasy battles, soaring high in the sky on a dragons back, fighting Beelzebub in the fiery pits of a black mage's dungeon, riding a acid-fed NES controller-shaped roller coaster of doom...

These are just some of the many images that spring to mind when listening to Swerdmurd's incredible debut album with us on Cheapbeats.

Enjoy!
