On Saturday, May 21st, The Rapture failed to take the lives of all humans on earth. There are a number of theories on why Harold Camping’s evangelical nutjobbery was nothing more than internet hubub, but I’d like to credit the hard work and dedication of chipmusician Smiletron.
Smiletron’s new EP, Forward is a progressive 5-Track EP which takes us on a journy through an evolving soundscape through high energy chiptune music and etherial, moving moods. From a production standpoint, Smiletron has stood tall with some of the best-sounding Chipmusic available, and FORWARD is no change. The EP is offered for free through Smiletron.org.
Thank you for saving the world
They’re not doing Penny Arcade amryone (PA’s decision, not 2PP’s). They are still doing the Uncharted and Infamous promo docs for Sony, though, which means they still need their crew on the west coast.I imagine another factor here is the projected cost of getting the film into various festivals, something they sort of stumbled through with Reformat the Planet and now understand how much work and money it takes, added with the idea that the Minecraft movie probably has more international and business appeal than an admittedly fun movie about making music with Game Boys in New York.All this and 2PP is still just five people, so I totally understand the need to hire a couple extra people to finish this projects in a timely manner (at least the Sony stuff needs to be finished on a deadline before those games are released to the public later this year).
