As long as I&#8217;ve been listening, dude&#8217;s been consistently laying down some tasty, bassy chipgrooves.\u00a0 It was a complete no brainer to try and get a track from him for the first <a href=\"http:\/\/chiptuneswin.com\">Chiptunes = WIN compilation<\/a>, and awesomely enough he joined right in. \\m\/ It turned out that his kickass submission, <a href=\"http:\/\/chiptuneswin.com\/track\/africa\">Africa<\/a>, was a track from this then unreleased album. From the very first listen through I knew right off that it was gonna be a killer release when it finally dropped.\u00a0And I&#8217;m thrilled to say, <em>I WAS DAMN RIGHT.\u00a0<\/em>\u00a0Stars is 10 tracks of <em>TOTAL WIN<\/em>\u00a0in an amalgam of varying musical styles, all composed with\u00a0KORG DS10+ and Nanoloop. More importantly, <em>all composed with buttloads of bass.<\/em>\u00a0You feel this stuff right in your gut. <em>Literally<\/em>. \u00a0;)\u00a0In fact, do your bass loving self a favor when you listen to this album and take Decktonic&#8217;s advice: listen via some good cans and\/or sound system with solid bass response so that you don&#8217;t miss out on any of the deep basstasticness. Honestly, if this album doesn&#8217;t get your foot tapping, head nodding, ass shaking, and feet moving,\u00a0<em>there&#8217;s no hope for you<\/em>.\u00a0Don&#8217;t be hopeless. <strong>EMBRACE THE BASS<\/strong>. &lt;&#8211;\u00a0<em>NEW LIFE MOTTO. 8)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>\\m|\u2665|m\/<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"position: relative; display: block; width: 300px; height: 355px;\" src=\"http:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/v=2\/album=3361197684\/size=grande2\/bgcol=FFFFFF\/linkcol=e6000e\/transparent=true\/\" frameborder=\"0\" width=\"300\" height=\"355\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I like bass.
