Have you ever wondered what Dark Side of the Moon would sound like if Pink Floyd had written it for the Nintendo NES?

Thanks to the hard work of Canadian Brad Smith, he’s remixed the entire album in 8-bit Nintendo glory:

Pink Floyd’s Dark Side of the Moon is an all-time rock classic, but that’s provided you’re listening to it on a record or CD, until now.

For those wondering, it’s available for download from the MOON8 project site.

Rush Coil – 8-bit Christmas

Not only am I a fan of video games, I’m also a huge fan of video game music. All anyone has to do is take a look at my Apple iPod to see that.

Now that the holidays are upon us it’s only appropriate to have some video game themed Christmas music to rock around the Christmas tree.

This album 100% inspired by games. It’s Rush Coil’s “8-bit Christmas”:

There are 12 tracks in all on the album. You can sample them at the official web page and it’s also available to purchase for $4.00 USD.
