Somehow Psilodump turned me into an MC; just like on his album, I’m rapping on his new single The Return of the Snabelnauts. Well, it’s the same thing again, to be honest…
Wanna Hld Yr Handheld is a compilatoin of Beatles covers – the second release from 8 Bit Operators, after the Kraftwerk success a while back. This is volume 1 with 20 big-chip-names including Bacalao, Saskrotch, minusbaby, Anamanaguchi, Psilodump, and Bubblyfish. I covered Come Together, to which there’s also a video.

Tomorrow the 8 Bit Operators Beatles Tribute is out, and here is the video to my contribution for it. It was made by Erik Nilsson, who recently made a mechnical orchestra. He animated this video on a Commodore 64 BBS (popular before the Internet), where the text gets written on the screen slowly enough for you to work with different animation techniques. Petscii and Skweee, how sweet life can beee. And thanks for the expert help, Rosaroos.
