    This album is inspired by the Gameboy games from my childhood whose music had a huge influence on me (such as Zelda, Castlevania, Mario, Battletoads, Metroid and many more). This is the final song on the album, I'll probably be taking a break from producing 8-bit music for a while and moving on to other things. Thanks for all your support over the last year as I was working on this project!
    Credits:
    Music composed, arranged, performed and produced by Gil Assayas (GLASYS).
    Video production by John Thompson (Ballooga Media).

    Another song so absolutely familiar that it feels like a warm blanket while being completely new and clearly of your own creative vision. Bravo.

    So there is this moment in "Pokey Means Business" form Earthbound where the low fidelity chip tunes give way to samples (granted also lo-fi ones but because of the contrast the effect is to over represent their realism). The turn is one of the most pumped moments in game music. This feels as though it captures a similar essence, but for an uplifting and soothing impression, where the emotions themselves become more real as the music itself makes a similar transition. Beautifully done.

    Even in this video game music genre, I cannot escape the beautiful Melodie’s you create. As a (ahem, 60 something year old ) man, Video games (and the sound scape they portray]>have never been my cup of tea. Just my personal preference. Every time you transition to an acoustic piano, I appreciate your obvious musical talent and gift for melody. That being said, even in the game boy mode, your sense of melody and contra puntal melody construction is so enjoyable that I have come to enjoy the whimsical sounds of video game versions of your compositions.. you write beautiful Melodie’s and I have come to enjoy them in whatever format you present them. Obviously,I look forward to hearing your work in an acoustic setting, but still thoroughly enjoy them in whatever form you share them with us. Cheers, and keep up the good work. It is appreciated.

    • @GLASYS
      @GLASYS  Год назад

      Thank you John, that means a lot! I understand that chiptune is very much a generational thing, people my age grew up with games so we have a certain connection and nostalgia associated with that sound. I appreciate you listening anyway, thanks so much for the kind words 🙏
