Love it smile how'd you get the cool pattern on the screen with the NES?

The NES and scratchy drum sounds really with in with this track, and perfectly contrast the vocals and guitar. Loved the lyrics too, great track!

Since nobody is asking, I'll ask: are you okay?=P
Awesome job on the vocal delivery, btw, this is rad! I'm also digging the high pitched glitchy beeps that pop in every now and again.
Great job making it this far! Just a few more weeks to go!!!

Thanks for listening/watching

So amazingly, the MIDINES cartridge creates a pattern screen in accordance to your device triggering MIDI signals along with the audio output!  It is so cool.  I'm so grateful to have one, they are unfortunately out-of-print and it seems the code to build them has been lost to the ether.

i'm breaking the rules and copying my youtube comment to paste here! DEAL WITH IT ๐Ÿ˜Ž

excellent combination of tasty ingredients. the verbed voxal over the NES crunch is so nice! i'll be singing that "wherewithal" part all morning ๐Ÿงก

hope you are able to get some pockets of rest ๐Ÿ•Š

Great job as always. Love your jazzmaster riff looped, the NES over it is a great touch.

I hope you are doing good! Take care.

SO MANY REBELS

I like how you just casually break into the song after your announcements.  It has a really nice buildup.  By the end when you're singing along to multitracked vocals it starts to feel pretty epic. 

Cool vibes. I like how every element feels like it's out of a different genre, but it still meshes well.

That beat's magically catchy, and those are some top-tier Orange Drink harmonies in the outro! Already a new favorite - so much so that I had to go back for seconds as soon as the track finished playing. wink

OMG this is amazing. Love the organic layers on this with the vocals and the guitar. The crunchy percussion with the MIDINES is a-ma-zing. Love this track, favorited! Great job.

Love the soaring vocal harmonies and progression on the chorus. Does one still need to blow NES cartridges to work or notsomuch for the midines?   (liked, subscribed & upd00ted)

just great!

The soundscape on this is amazing, holy
