Does a band exist if it is only in the minds of its members. Does it matter if it never writes music. Does it matter if it never plays gigs. Is it ok it takes 40 years to release a song. Does it matter if anyone listens to it.

In a world desperate for content, can a band be content to just be who they are?

To write music that they are proud of and release it into an indifferent world.

Some will say, it could be this, it could be that. Some who listen long enough will say it sounds like this or it sounds like that.

But does that matter?

We did this, it took a long time, and we are content.

This is a place for me to share my musical compositions based mostly on video game music from the 8 and 16-bit eras.
Re-recorded, remixed versions on Bandcamp!

I make music because I love it. Get ready for a lot of different types of music.
