Awesome!
I'm assuming this is tracked -- what's your tracker of choice? I've yet to find one with an interface I can really jive with, but without the complexity of something like Renoise.
Are the drums sampled or synthesized by whatever tracker you're using?

Hey thanks man!
Okay, so what I do is use "peach" and "toad" VSTs. They're free, and work really well. As far as tracking software, I use "Mixcraft 6" and a midi keyboard.
Most of this stuff is free for the software of your choice, so check it out!

This specifically is not; but I can't say for sure you won't see anything like this
Speaking of that... The promotion begins really soon... Can't wait to show it off...

This what I call "sheer glitz". Even though I'm not a gamer, I always liked video game soundtracks. I like that you made some liberties around the notes, you didn't just copy it. Well done, Mike! And thanks for description, very interesting to learn others' ideas.
2 SF: thanks for the

This one is even better. You should contact Brian's people, this needs to be used commercially, somehow.

Was about to say exactly this. It just screams "commEEEEErcial", *dollar sign in the eyes* etc. You really have a knack at writing bit music.
Now, question - what is the name of that terrific faux-drum, with stop-starts, kinda making excavator noises? And how long did it take for you to play "H&V"? Tia.

Wow thanks guys!! I really wouldn't know how to go about that... But I would love that!
All of the percussive effects are created by "Toad" which is essentially a vst that samples old NES sound effects to use as drums! I believe the one you're referring to is from Super Mario 3 or something like that...
I'll keep this up, glad to know you guys like it!

Oh... And I'd just like to throw out there concerning the commercial point- I actually do this for commission for guys making indie games, except normally I write the music and it has a bit more than just the standard 8 but stuffs... But just wanted you to know your hunch about the "commerical-ness" is totally on par haha!

Seriously, find a way to get this to Brian's people, or the Beach Boys management, or something. This should not go to waste, it should be heard by more people.

When I saw the title, I thought, "Wow, that's an odd choice". However, as I kept listening, it actually seemed quite fitting to hear it done in 8 bit. Very cool. Can you do next "Wild Honey"? Theremin track I mean.
Thanks for the info re: drums.
