This album is a collection of tracks I've made for Battle of the Bits between January 30th and June 28th of 2025. I did a few things on the site prior to this year, mostly stuff that made it into Etc. 1, but I really got into a groove and started submitting a lot, so I figured I'd sequence and put it all together in one big release.

For those who are unaware, Battle of the Bits is a website grown out of chiptune and tracker demoscene groups which has frequent music battle competitions, where you're usually given a theme and a short timeframe (usually 1 hour) to make a song (these are called XHBs or Minor Battles). They also usually have a couple Major Battles running which have a much much longer submission period, often a month or longer. 

If you would like to see the individual track information (such as formats or how it placed), please see the corresponding playlist over on botb! https://battleofthebits.com/playlist/View/209/
