Recently, I played Tokyo Blipfest 2012 in KOENJI HIGH along with a group of absolutely amazing chipartists. Originally this was the result of a bet with a good friend that a NES really can emit heavy reese growls without resorting to DPCM samples or direct PCM playback (in fact, the reese basses in the song were mainly created with the 2A03 pulsewave channels, despite the song also using VRC6 expansion ), but eventually this dub/bro style song was retrofitted specifically for this final blipfest. I was very happy with the crowd response of the song (and was even more happy that my friend on stage did such a good job rallying the crowd with me), but I was planning to just keep it within my library of live material and be done with it. But after tons of friends and acquaintances asking and begging (even one threatening!) for me to release it, I eventually decided it really would be the best thing to do so.
It's a 2-parter album single (in fact, the first part is the same denpa song featured in NO CARRIER's Tokyo Blipfestival 2010 Invite NES ROM!). The 2nd part is, of course, the dub drop.
It has a silly storyline to it, too. Its little jokes are heavily based off Japanese Akihabara otaku culture... which otherwise the story won't make much sense if you haven't experienced the culture firsthand. (for instance, the "Oishiku nare, moemoe kyun!" phrase repeated multiple times in this album, in particular, is a common phrase for maids to "bless your food to make it more tasty" in a cosplay cafe. Seriously, just go along with it. )
It's posted in bandcamp as a free / name-your-price deal. Hope you guys enjoy it!
