Free Album Friday #2 (Saturday Edition): The 8Bits of Christmas Casey Dorrell

Sure, we've all heard the classics, and most of the music blog-hopping savy kids have heard the indie versions of them too - but what about 8bit versions? "This very special holiday release from 8bitpeoples features an allstar cross-platform lineup that is sure to make yours a truly chippy christmas indeed. Brought together from all corners of the globe, these 8 amazing tunes were composed by 8 dedicated chiptune maniacs on 8 different videogame consoles and homecomputers! Featuring the sounds of Yerzmyey on the Spectrum, Nullsleep on the NES, Vim on the VIC20, Paul Slocum on the Atari 2600, Bit Shifter on the GameBoy, Goto80 on the C64, Dma-Sc on the Atari ST, and Hally on the X68000, there is only one way to celebrate the holidays right this year, and this is it." (Internet Archive) This may not be for everyone, but if you enjoyed Beck's gameboy remix EP earlier this year or if you're old enough/ young enough that you spent a lot of time playing games on one of these systems, you'll probably get a kick out of it.
