Not me, sadly. He is excellent, though. I also recommend the album "Level", which is great for listening to when playing games with boring/repetitive soundtracks.

The other way around, if a prog band played this it would be incredible.

I tried to make some of my own video game music a while ago (not really 8 bit, but sounds similar). I used some generated loops and riffs and some of my own playing to come up with these. They are kind of lengthy, but I think they make out well for background music.



I'm still really digging that C-Jeff someone posted. Best $5 of my life! (even though it was free!)

Hey, guys! Thanks! I posted it here once over Unsigned Bands section, but it is just gone to nowhere, so I'm really glad to find it mentioned here :)
