2600

Inspired by Disquiet Junto Project #0542: 2600 Club, I went all in on this phreakish track:
- dial-up sounds
- chip-tune arpeggios on an analog 3-oscillator Moog synth
- glitched percussion
- vocoding
- lyrics generated with Python code
- tempo is 128 which is a power of two
- ends in total digital distortion destruction
- it's also arguably a club track, with a house-friendly tempo and beat
- the cover art is a spectrogram of the initial part of the piece showing the dial-up sounds
- the font in the cover art is Terminus, an old school hacker font I'm using for programming
Lyrics:

> two six double oh

> sing me a song of
> crimes we get away with
