VARIOUS TOPICS

supported by

Vicki S Nemeth bryface's juxtaposed melodies and pixelated beats exhibit complex joy and wonder. Favorite track: the tuvan ascendancy.

Stein Gunnar Bakkeby Behind a seemingly dull title hides a curious collection of frantic and gritty chiptunes simulating an overclocked Game Boy. Favorite track: rich bastard groove.

Leigh Dyer I saw bryface in Melbourne at Square Sounds - he put on a great show! I just had to grab a copy of this totally kickass album afterwards Favorite track: disk 3 of 977.

about

This album of Game Boy tunes aims for a uniquely illustrative approach to chipmusic, resulting in a sound that is lush, nuanced and full of vitality.

"Various Topics" consists of several all-new tracks from me, as well as remastered and/or expanded versions of select previously-released songs.

Each song varies wildly in style and theme, but expect a few elements to be shared in common: chunky, intricate grooves. Meticulous sound design. Lyrical melodies that evoke a decidedly old-school demostyle flair. Stunning washboard abs.

But more importantly, this album hopes to take you beyond the technical details into less tangible emotional territory -- into the peculiar, the saccharine, the oddball, and just maybe, the surprisingly profound.
