With all its bleeps, buzzes and bloops in perfect order, the third installment from Pxl-Bot's very own Andrew Kilpatrick is nothing short but jaw droppingly brilliant.
Bringing incredibly catchy melodies, foot stomping good beats and and an overall finish which leaves you breathless and on your knees in front of it, this EP is yet another masterful release from Andrew. Inspired by a forum post at ChipMusic.org this EP was written and composed in just one day. One Day Later... draws you in with its almost story like tracks and once ensnared you never want to leave your prison cell of melodies again. Also featuring a brilliantly done cover of Wintersun's 'Beyond The Dark Sun', cover art by the very talented Holy Konni and three bonus tracks all thrown in for good measure, this EP is definitely a must have for chip fanatics.

Artwork by the wonderful Holy Konni

Bridging the gap between post-hardcore and chiptune with angst and genuine musical technical capability, we here at Pxl-Bot are overly proud to bring you Dinotrax’s newest raw set of blistering tracks in the form of “Rearranging Patterns”. With their fourth and most focused release to date, the American six-piece hailing from Pittsburgh, Dinotrax, reach new heights with an unimaginable perfection of their destructive blend of the beautiful and brutal. Not tethering themselves to the usual restraints of straight post-hardcore, influences are drawn from across the board into an accumulation sometimes hard to comprehend, before finally dousing the result product in chip and chip influenced melodies and structure. Almost every track on this EP could be the next post-hardcore anthem, and coupled with its constant leniency towards chip and video game influenced tendencies, this is one ‘Nintendocore’ album the chip community can REALLY be proud of. No cybergrind or overly distorted ‘death metal’ vocals usually found in nintendocore, just straight up chip inspired brilliance.

Doused in samples, house influences and a hearty amount of technical capability with the passion to match, Pxl-Bot bring you another Grade A piece of work, this time from Finland. Ville Wannabe creates memorable tunes covered with perfectly manipulated samples doing more than just giving the audience something to relate to, but more so pushing the use of sampling to its limits of atmosphere and mood regulation. The music itself find itself buried somewhere between chip house, post-rock spats and an indescribable experimentation style sure to rocket Ville Wannabe forwards due to its remarkably unique nature. With this perfectly crafted release, where every song is chosen and placed with huge attention paid to the most minute of details, Ville has placed his first stepping stone on his way to the hall of fame. And we are very, very proud to be the ones showing you it.
