I don't know how many of you remember this, so I'll explain a bit.
Back in the 8bc days I was a big fan of Sievert and his technicolor space-hero persona he used for his music. However, he lacked an antagonist, so one day I had the idea of creating one for him. I made a second account and used an attention grabbing song name, spun a little story for it, and watched what happened.
What happened was a lot of fun.
We posted songs back and forth for a while, progressing in the story (which was the usual space opera stuff; rockets, doom-weapons, lasers, pew pew). The first few times he had no idea who was behind the Szliszka alias, but I had to come out eventually when the usual 8bc-ish drama ensued and people got a bit too enthusiastic.
Anyways, we planned to make the 'battle' into a split EP, with some nice art and the story. Maybe even a small comic. That obviously never happened, life got in my way, and time passed. I'm still sorry about that.
Sorry, cap'n! ![]()
I'm not writing any music at the moment, and haven't written any in a while. Just doesn't click. I was browsing my old files and found the unfinished EP- and I thought, what the hell, this shouldn't be just gathering dust on my HD. So I decided to release it as is.
There are the five Szliszka tracks and four Sievert tracks, I know a slightly different version of at least one has been released elsewhere (because I mixed the album
).
So for those of you who followed the original adventure, this doesn't offer anything new, except that I mastered the Sievert tracks. Those of you who didn't: here's a bit of fun and play. There's room for this in the chiptune community too, something that has been sadly absent here for a while, I feel.
To all: Enjoy! ![]()
