July Release
ยตB – CorsairJuly 2011 – KR053

Pirates were pretty cool before Johnny Depp decided to play a Rolling Stone in some never ending series about a ride or something. Maybe they are still cool because of Johnny Depp. I’m not sure. Anyway, this nostalgic release will take you back to the days of unlicensed pirate Lego and never ending disk swaps because you didn’t have a hard drive.

June Release
Droid Song – rainJune 2011 – KR052
Download Link
A short EP of lonely atmospheric songs about the rain. I can’t that imagine that it rains much in California though. It doesn’t seem to in The O.C. trailers anyway, or any of the west coast rap videos. Yeah, these songs are very mornful.

May Release
kraettz โ Battle Ground MicrochipMay 2011 – KR051
Download Link
Throughout 2008 and 2009 a series of amazing intricate LSDJ breakcore tracks were uploaded to 8bitcollective and largely ignored in favour of the usual Game Boy melodic techno. Kittenrock has persuaded kraettz to re-record these breathtaking tracks as a proper release. Featuring exquisite drum programming and excellent glitchy sound design, this release seriously pushes the boundaries of what should be possible with a couple of Game Boys.

4mat, Zan-zan-zawa-veia, ovenrake, An-Cat-Max, Linde, ยตB, Inkoddi and many more sought to join us as we celebrate the mighty duck through a duck themed chip compilation. Disappointingly, we only received two duckstep tracks…
