ReceptorsMusic and WebLabel Ops continues to blur the musical decades, but now we'll smear shattered bits across the centuries as the 8Bit Ops tentacle ensnares another German maestro gameboy operator in the person of Sascha Müller aka PHARMACOM! His "SWITCHED ON GAMEBOY 1" release from 2005 delighted us lifelong fans of electronically created classical music by recreating JS Bach's 'greatest hits' a la Wendy Carlos on GAMEBOY synth! I remember the day my older brother Ron brought home Walter Carlos' soundtrack to "A Clockwork Orange", launching a child's keen, albeit naive interest in classical music. With that album and of course the earlier and timeless "Switched On Bach", the pinnacle of the style seemed to have already been reached , with a few more interesting classical portrayals by the likes of Tomita perhaps. Now, over 30 years later PHARMACOM rekindles our childish affection for classical music and it's cast of dramatic characters with his "SWITCHED ON GAMEBOY 2- KLASSIKS!", a veritable 'their greatest hits' of Beethoven, Hayd, Lizt, Chopin, Schubert and more, performed entirely on the GameBoy Classic synthesiser! ReceptorsMusic is proud for this to be our 3rd weblabel release. Thank the internet gods for providing such a work of beauty for FREE! and then thank the illustrious Pharmacom and his fellow geniuses from across the ages. As a bonus, SWITCHED ON GAMEBOY 1 (selected works of JS Bach) is also available. For both releases, click here: cheers!

In Tune monthly goes out to all the high school band classes in the US i'm told, and this month there's an article on chiptunes featuring Bubblyfish and other 8-Bit Operators. My circuit-bent performance of Haydn/Mozart's Toy Symphony with the Roanoke Symphony at Virginia Tech was more cohesive and appreciated, i believe, than my Civic Center performance (mostly due to technical difficulties on my end and an unbalanced sound mix). There were many challenges in trying to fit a style of music(circuit-bending) that is governed completely by chaos within the regimen of classical music. Anything I do of this nature again will feature a more melodic chiptune approach which i wasn't able to convey this time handling only the percussive toy sounds of this piece. All in all I had a great time,enjoying David Wiley's wit, and thank all who tolerated my Furbinator mouthing off during Tchaikovsky's "Waltz of the Flowers"! in other related news: unreleased Futurisk out on 180 gram vinyl limited edition of 500. Ksine's first dark-ambient xmas album from 2000(composed mainly on the handheld Roland PMA midi-stylophone also triggering various synths.) Now on itunes.

A productive few weeks on the receptorsmusic front.. Played the Iceland Airwaves festival! My show on Friday night at the Barinn Airwaves club went good and got a great reception from the small but enthusiastic crowd, i must have had a dozen or more people come up to me and ask about or comment that they dug it. Receptors also got a nice pic and positive mention by Billboard's Katie Hasty in the daily review paper that comes out there (will post soon). All the acts were great that night, but i particularly liked Van Of Two's stuff. Also met members of Iceland's Hellvar who i will be working with soon. The next morning to my amazement i woke up early enough to catch the ride to the legendary Blue Lagoon party which was memorable indeed. Iceland Airwaves home While in Reykjavik i also made the acquaintance of the members of !!! , Annuals and Of Montreal, among others, all of whom were a funny and nice bunch of guys, and showed a curious and sincere interest in the gameboy applications in my music. I also got to catch all of their shows on Saturday. Then it was back to NYC where Glomag and Receptors played an 8-Bit Operators '80's gameboy covers war at some giant party opening for the B52's! Us 2 old grey boys have to do that again soon ! Back in Roanoke, had a quite productive meeting with Roanoke Symphony Director David Wiley regarding a joint project for this season's holiday program(stay tuned for more on that)! Thanks to Museum Director David Brown this project will also involve a piece for the opening of the breathtakingly Futuristic new Art Museum of Western Virginia building in 2008!

Hear them both in their entirety NOW at: http://myspace.com/8bitoperators to hear/read more and to buy cd/download : http://8BitOps.com What the press is saying about "8-Bit Operators - Kraftwerk Tribute" CD on Astralwerks: "Is the technofuturist tunage of Kraftwerk not geeky enough for you? Interface with this tribute album to Düsseldorf's finest, which was made by some of the biggest artists in the chiptune world." Wired Mag "As forward thinking as Kraftwerk were, they also had an enduring fondness for the pleasure of nostalgia. And the music here draws from that well, adds a twist, and finds a way to look to the future and the past at the same time." Pitchfork "If you find a way to hack into my nintendo so this is playing along to Mike Tyson' Punch Out, I will never leave the house." Village Voice "Unlike just about every Kraftwerk tribute record to date, 8-Bit Operators is the modern(wel, throw back modern) response to the producers and bands who have failed to pay proper homage to machine music's innovators." XLR8R "its clear that only the vintage gaming audio suited this compilation- no other method captures the mechanical mindset and imaginative potential of a band as important as Kraftwerk." Weekly Geek "immerses the listener in a strange, swirling temporal vortex of music written by a futuristic electronic band in the late '70s and early '80s, reimagined by retro-holic musicians in 2006 using a sound palette straight out of a video game console circa 1981, with technical flourishes only available in software invented in the last five years." Orlando Weekly "While there have been tribute albums to Kraftwerk before, perhaps the most inspired attempt at reinterpreting the German group's canon arrives in the form of 8-Bit Operators' The Music Of Kraftwerk album." 1 Up "Anyone with an olde fashioned Nintendo will get a kick out of the music, and it does not come off as a novelty either (something increasingly hard to do with tribute discs)." Static "These tracks stay true to the roots of each song, yet bring something of each artists style to the mix; walking the line between rocking out and robo-boogie. The CD has 15 tracks, and would be a great mix for any party, dance, or at work at those times when you need to embrace your inner drone." Retro Thing "Put out by the [micro]superstars of the chiptuniverse, 8-Bit Operators, these lo-bit microchipmeisters and their homemade circuit-bent contraptions actually seem worthy enough to cover the classics of Der Düsseldorf Man-Machines." Robot Sound "This tribute with a twist is far from silly, even if it sounds rather goofy on paper.8-Bit Operators is a collective of electronic bands that constructs tracks out of blips, bleeps and blasts from vintage video games. 8-Bit Operators joins forces here to re-create the pioneering songs of Kraftwerk with astonishing results."

Dr Ops. http://8bitoperators.com http://8bitops.com http://myspace.com/8bitoperators http://astralwerks.com/kraftwerk *02/06/2007: OUT NOW! 8-Bit Kraftwerk tribute on Astralwerks! Thanks from 8-Bit Operators.. When the 8-Bit Operators project began to take form,it was as an internet driven concept starting roughly 2 years ago. It was set into concrete motion exclusively through artistic meetings and international relationships established via web communities and communications through emails and sound file transfers. Indeed, the trail of countless posts left behind by me (undoubtedly irritating to some) may remain as a loose documentation of the project's unfolding. The final line up of 8-Bit Operators ultimately consists of contacts made solely on Lo-bit-electro groups and communities such as the Yahoo LittleSoundDJ and Nanoloop groups, and the Live Journal GameboyMusic and CircuitBending groups, Myspace and of course, the online Micromusic community. This truly was a grass roots global project from the start. Now the concept is a reality. Today, "8-Bit Operators - An 8- Bit Tribute to Kraftwerk" will be available everywhere you can buy music, and it's in no small way due to the ongoing support of online communities that spawned the three dozen musicians and artists who contributed to the completion of this work, a testament to the 21st century wave of chuptune/ bit- pop/ 8-bitpop microstars! The 8-Bit Operators CD and Vinyl are already making a splash on college radio, arriving at #1 on North American college Electronic/RPM charts...here's what reviewers are saying : Wired Magazine: 8-Bit Operators named #2 in top Ten Cool things for Feb '07!
