There were a few other bits and bobs that got missed out or skipped over, but all in all a good shopping day. Which leads to today's tunes...
8-Bit Operators is a compilation of the music of Kraftwerk performed on vintage 8-bit video games systems. It is the perfect synthesis of old school video games sounds and the classic old school grooves of the German electro pioneers. I am a huge Kraftwerk fan. I was never much of a video gamer, but I recognize the blips, bleeps and bloops. There are a couple of versions here that aren't so great, but I will say I am enjoying most of this compilation. Here are a few of my faves...8-Bit Weapon - Spacelab
Bubblyfish - It's More Fun To Compute
