Automatic Rewind OFFICIAL

Добавлен 24 июл 2017
Formerly Known as The Eighth Bit!
Hailing from the cold streets of Chicago, Automatic Rewind combines synth-heavy EDM styles from the 70s through the 2000s, creating an experience that would not be out of place in those eras, but with a new spin that makes it fresh!

Signal Overdrive
Buy this track at automatic-rewind.bandcamp.com/track/signal-overdrive
A fast-paced and loud EDM tune I've been working on for a few years now (since 2020, basically). It always sounded a bit overdriven to me, so that was the name it ended up with.

Iris
Просмотров 16Месяц назад
Buy this track at automatic-rewind.bandcamp.com/track/iris This song was envisioned as almost an EDM ballad and could have certainly served as a backing track for a love song. This was one I envisioned on piano and then just built an instrumental track around, layering synth pads and creating synth riffs around the piano track. Photo credit: Dagmara Dombrovska
Zinsey
Просмотров 36Месяц назад
Buy this track at automatic-rewind.bandcamp.com/track/zinsey This upbeat EDM song is a throwback to both 1980s synth tunes as well as the chiptunes that have been created for years and continue to be created today. This song is a dedication to a late friend of mine, who went by Zinsey online, and passed away about a year ago. His interests included electronic music (especially chiptune) and old...
That Bouncy Feeling
Просмотров 765 месяцев назад
Buy this track at automatic-rewind.bandcamp.com/track/that-bouncy-feeling! This is a bouncy song that is heavily inspired by 90s EDM, particularly House and Eurodance music that I listened to as a teenager. This song was actually started in March 2018 but was slowly worked on from then until now and a name wasn't given to the song until a few days ago!
Daybreak
Просмотров 1425 месяцев назад
Buy this track at automatic-rewind.bandcamp.com/track/daybreak! A new tune that I've been working on since not long since my last release. This one started out as a basic piano riff and then expanded into me playing unconventional instruments (such as an incense holder and a rolled-up poster) and using pretty much all of my synths. This song is dedicated to Pam, my mother, who passed in Februar...

Can You Hear My Dreams?
Просмотров 422 года назад
Purchase this track at automatic-rewind.bandcamp.com/track/can-you-hear-my-dreams ! Another slower, dreamy tune that I've been working on for a bit. Similar in style to Reminiscence, though a little more upbeat than that!
The Expanse
Просмотров 1513 года назад
A bit of a departure from my normal style, more of a house-ish EDM track that started out as a test of a new synthesizer (Kawai K1) and a new drum machine (Korg Volca Beats). The style and chords made me think of the expanse of space, leading to the title. Album art photo by Felix Mittermeier The Eighth Bit is now on Spotify, Apple Music, RUclips Music, and elsewhere!

Cold Streets
Просмотров 2154 года назад
Purchase this track at automatic-rewind.bandcamp.com/track/cold-streets I tried something new with the video, merging two videos, one of each channel, being played through an oscilloscope. Let me know what you think! Another song I started earlier in 2020 but have been slowly adding things to ever since I started. This one reminds me of a 1980s synth power ballad of sorts but has a slightly mel...
City Night
Просмотров 5184 года назад
Purchase this track at automatic-rewind.bandcamp.com/track/city-night This one is a funky one that I started composing back at the end of January. I started out with an electric piano riff, a synth bassline, and worked my way forward with that. This one goes back to the days of 1980s Post Disco, Italo Disco, and even City Pop (which directly inspired the style in many ways). I hope you enjoy it...
DSC (Digital Serial Communication)
Просмотров 1274 года назад
Buy DSC at automatic-rewind.bandcamp.com/track/dsc-digital-serial-communication ! This track is one I've been working on for a few months. It really embraces the synthwave feel, with fast synth basses and thick synth chords as well as a very prominent drum machine rhythm section. Synthesizers used: Behringer Model D Korg Poly-800 Roland JX-03 Roland SA-09 Yamaha TX7
Neon Way
Просмотров 2645 лет назад
Download this track at automatic-rewind.bandcamp.com/track/neon-way ! This one is another synthwave-esque track that makes use of my Behringer Model D in the melody and the bass. It also has very thick layered chords, giving it a bit of depth. This track makes me think of driving down a street, neon lights shining on either side of the road, which is where I got the title! Instruments used: Rol...
Reminiscence
Просмотров 1335 лет назад
Download the track at automatic-rewind.bandcamp.com/track/reminiscence ! This is one of my few songs that actually started as an idea rather than simply a chord progression or a melody. The idea of this song was reminiscing. Thinking back to the days of the past when times were simpler and things were easier. I think I captured that idea well with the lush, layered, dreamy synth chords througho...
Laid Back
Просмотров 715 лет назад
Download the track at automatic-rewind.bandcamp.com/track/laid-back ! This one is a smooth, electric piano-driven song that I started working on way back in 2017 but have been steadily contributing to since then. The overall theme of the song is fairly simple but I think it works well. Instruments Used: Kawai EP705M (Electric Piano) Korg Poly-800 (Analog Synth) Roland JX-03 (Analog Modeling Syn...

Some Custom Korg Poly-800 Patches I Made
found this again and jesus its good, also i only noticed this now, you've worked on this since 2020????? one 3 min track?????????
The development of this song, like many of my songs, was pretty fragmented. There was a whole half a year where the only part I had recorded was a wavetable synth choir sound recorded from a Kawai K1 (which wasn't even used in the final track), then I started piling stuff on it. I was also working on other songs at the same time. Another example is That Bouncy Feeling, which I started working on 3/3/2018 and didn't release until 2024.
@@AutomaticRewind how does one have such patience 😭
@@citrussy2708 It's kinda the opposite. My brain is scattered so I work on a bunch of stuff at the same time. I don't stick to a single song for long and create new ones. My mind is... odd to say the least, haha!
underrated PEAK??????
Any plans to use vocals someday?
I really like this one! I definitely want to hear more from you!
I hope you continue to do music. I think your stuff would be great in video games!
I'll be coming to you soon enough 😉
Absolutely beautiful 🩷
I love your music! 🎶
Woo! Let's go! 😺
Reminds me of music from old beat 'em ups! :D
I loved it! Very chill and relaxing. Can't wait to hear more!
your music, great as it always been!
Really love the synths, and solid beat, too! ^^
2 releases in a week? you spoil us <3
Glad to see this finally released :D
It's pretty. You did a great job there, sweetie ❤
As an 80’s kid this is totally rad! I have words that need songs also. Maybe we should collaborate.
Whoa, I have songs that need words!
I love the song, the sounds and the oscilloscope!
This is incredible. Please come back to making music and actually assemble something into an album. Maybe do some live vintage synth demo shorts to get the algorithm going or something too. Because I've been absolutely grooving to this.
Whoa, thanks! I'm actually working on some newer and older songs. Some are ready for release, others still need a tiny bit more work before I release them. I also will be changing my artist name to better match the style of music I make, so stay tuned!
Say I got a question for you, do you still have the flp file or midi from the "The Nes Soundfont Update (8BitSF)" video? I'm looking for the first track, nothing special.
It’s perfectly fitting that you should trigger the module from the Poly-800. It’s not difficult to imagine some people had that configuration when both of them were new on the market in the mid 80s. That last sound seriously makes me wish I had our FB-01 module back. It isn’t even a sample/playback engine or a ROMpler, but that is one of the best simulations I’ve heard of a reed-based E piano (Wurlitzer or Hohner) I’ve heard.
quick question about the Ultimate Megadrive Soundfont . am i allowed to make copyrighted music using the instruments in it or nah? (i'm super new to the music making industry so i apologize if it's a dumb question)
Great track! Very old school sounds, thumbs up!
I'm getting so many Sonic The Hedgehog vibes from this
Great stuff!
I remember hearing this a a work in progress. Came out great
Glad to hear you are still making music
This goes hard
Awesome
Good sounds man
Any patch sheets available
Mine seems a life less any tips
This is incredible, you're super underrated and I cant wait to see you get discovered!
Severely underrated
This is excellent! Wow love the rhythm and the vox.
My boyfriend makes the best fucking synthwave blues around I love you 💜
Love you too! 💕
👍
Man that was nice I wanna do some vocals for this
you should do it
What did you have in mind? :o
question, is your music copyright and royalty free? the songs in questions are the .midis you did for The Ultimate Megadrive Soundfont (the instruments are diferent)
Hello, sorry for the late response. All of my original music is, per law, copyrighted but if you'd like to use any of my songs, feel free to contact me at the email on my channel!
@@AutomaticRewind Thanks for responding, but sadly, i forgot this completely, and now i have no use for them. Thanks though!
i really like the opening intro part
Do you do commissions? Or would I be able to use one of your songs in a game I’m working on?
I've never done commissions before but that's mostly because I've never seen any demand for it. However, we can discuss something via email if you'd like, my email address is cinos@theeighthbit.com. Do you make music as well?
@@AutomaticRewind I do make music as well! I’ll send an email soon btw just doin some stuff atm
Amazing!
Damn! I really wanna hear this song but everything's privatized
This is a banger 🔥
Banger.
1:19 is this love by survivor tone
Amazing demo! Thank you!
i love this channel for real!
i love it!
Music what?
