Leave a comment

Prince did an unbelievable amount of ground breaking work in his life, from his electric live shows, legendary eccentricities and record-breaking album sales to the cult classic Purple Rain and the only funny episode of The New Girl.
But did you know he also had a video game? It’s called Prince Interactive, it came out in 1994 and it is straight up magical. Mashable writer Adam Rosenberg decided to mourn our fallen hero by digging up this old-Internet relic and he’s released video clips of his journey into Prince’s digital lair.

Super Video Game Nightcore Mixtape

Leave a comment

The “Artists” over at international video game remixing super group PARTY MEMBERS have just released a brand new Nightcore album, which this writer believes is what it sounds like when you set a youtube video to play back at 1.25 speed.

Nightcore, or “NXC” as folks who have a limited use of their keyboard call it, is popular among dance music fans, millennials, squirrels, certain cats, ghosts who haunt power plants, and that guy who always hogs that good table at the coffee shop on the corner. Seriously, what is it with that guy? He doesn’t even order anything. He just sits there all day staring into his phone like he dropped something into a well and can’t return home without it. Why don’t you let some of the paying customers sit by the window, huh??

Whatever your feelings on Nightcore, you have to admit that this video must have taken a long time to render.

If you must, downloads for VGM NXC 001 can be found on Bandcamp. Please, don’t follow Party Members on Soundcloud.
