Retro Video Game Music, As Digested by a Classical Musician

In this week’s Sound Bank 15, I explore retro video game music from the 8-bit/chiptune genre, and write a tune. Instead of composing a “Pocket Piece” like I normally do for these videos, I went ahead and made a track with layered parts using synth sounds from 8-bit video game music. Thank you to everyone who suggested this idea to me, and for everyone who helped me compile my playlist (through instagram).
