far out. This tune funks it up. Whenever a pizza place had a a space invaders I was there begging for quarters. I moved onto the harder Atari scene and the rest was smoke. This goes hard my man. .

My favorite arcade used to randomly award tokens from the change machine. Blue tokens were worth ten tokens. Red ones, five. Defender ruled. I also loved Joust, which was kinda similar. My best game was probably tempest though. Arcades were cool, glad I was born at the right time to experience that during adolescence.

Haven't been to your page in a while. Still one of the best! Your sound is expanding for sure!

jeez your bass playing is addictive...trying to get some sleep but the funk is keeping my mind awake and entertained damn you :)

Ha, reminding me of Asteroids, for me probably the best arcade game ever with the fantastic heavy rolling ball and the hyperspace button. Cool stuff buddy!

Okay MikeTHC5, I'm still coming after your high score.

I try to write with rich lyrical details and self-deprecating humor about the human condition. Plus, that unique Shade Structure sound!  It sounds best with headphones. Thanks for any comments, reposts or likes.
