Boiled down to 8-bit, you hear the barest bare-bones of the music - proving that wasn't just the cool effects and musicianship that made it great. _Dark Side of the Moon_ is timeless, and up there with the greatest of classical symphonies. It'll be just as renown a century from now as it was when it was released.
I turned this on while I was playing Mario Bros on my classic NES, and he stopped to listen, despite anything I could do with the controller. Needless to say, he died because the time ran out, but it was worth it because the Princess said, “Why should you be afraid of dyin’? There’s no reason for it. You’ve got to go sometime.”
OMG what an absolute POS. I only made it through three songs. Does he talk and read poems over every track? Apparently, he claims he was never appreciated enough for Dark Side but he's by far the richest member of the band and apparently a big manbaby... "I wrote The Dark Side of the Moon. Let’s get rid of all this ‘we’ crap,” Waters commented during an interview with The Telegraph about the album. “Of course we were a band, there were four of us, we all contributed - but it’s my project, and I wrote it."
The fact that you can handle actually listening to this is a testament to the strength of the compositions themselves. Even in this format, there is beauty and poignancy in these songs. That's why DSOTM is one of the greatest (If not THE greatest) rock albums in history. The whole was certainly better than the sum of its parts in any case.
Wow. I had my doubts when I clicked this, but I ended up listening to the whole thing. Very nice work! I could totally see Brain Damage playing as the credits run on an NES game.
OK I love this. The capture of each melodic stream, the averaging and compression, and the equalizing of volume among tracks is brilliant. The digital reduction reveals so many intricacies in the music you don't remember being there, yet do. Those low volume melodies follow the emotional context of the original music, but here they are loud and proud, and it really shows how the song was constructed. Cute graphic to boot.
Definitely! I gave that album one listen. It is so sad to think that of all my copies of Dark Side covered by other artists, someone finally made one that's worse than Flaming Lips' version, and it was achieved by one of the main original songwriters!
I first heard that song when I was a stoned 16-year-old. I'm now 54 and it has seemed more profound to me with each passing year. The lyrics seem so simple at first yet they completely hit the nail on the head. And you run, and you run to catch up with the sun But it's sinking Racing around to come up behind you again The sun is the same in a relative way But you're older Shorter of breath, and one day closer to death
I’m listening to this far longer than I thought. It really is beautiful to hear such a bare and raw showcase of this masterpiece. The note choices are so brilliant.
This is the background music for an "Ultima" Title never released. As I travel around the map going to different towns and Inns to find clues, "Breath" Plays. "On the Run" happens when bats attack you in the wilderness. "Time" plays while on a boat to cross to another island or continent. "Money" is obviously digging and collecting ore in the Dwarf mine.
This is just fantastic, a brilliant homage to Pink Floyd at their best. You’ve just nailed it, the most economical rendition possible, and yet masterful given what you chose to include and what you chose to leave out due to the eight bit format. Like the 2 bar arpeggio crescendo in Us & Them, as one of many examples. Bravo! Made me smile ear to ear for its entirety. I’m a lifelong Floyd fan & and now a fan of your channel too! Superb! Well done!
My heart felt all warm and fuzzy inside…I admit it I almost cried during Great Gig just as much as hearing the original one on the album ! 😅 This is all so very satisfying ! lol 🌘🌈
Listening to this I got a mental image of some sort of Maniac Mansion-like game with the four Pink Floyd bandmates as playable characters instead. And now I desperately want to play it but it doesn't exist. I think you screwed up my mind big time with this!
Definitely gives me a warm nostalgic feeling, like I am back in childhood cozying up on the couch with my Nintendo GBA and playing a game from a memory I can't piece together, but it feels right there in its place. Very nice work!
This is another evidence that "clockwork symphony" intro for "Time" must be the best piece of music ever written. Whatever ridiculous set of instruments is used to recreate it sounds like heaven (I sincerely recommend You all to find the a capella version by Vocomotion - it's OUR OF THIS UNIVERSE). But this is excellent as a whole, great job! Fun fact: first time I heard Mike Oldfield's "Tubular bells" was a C64 demo sometime around 1988 ;)

Not gonna lie... This is *exactly* how my PC sounded in 1992 when playing MOD music files thru its infernal, er, internal speaker. Sometimes interposed by the dial-up modem sounds of reconnecting back to the BBS for another large 140Kb file. Good times.
Imagine playing a video game in the early 90's and it was like some kind of Zelda RPG isometric but with platformer bonus levels for faster bits. Dayum
I f***ng love it, been a gamer for the last 42 years, yup, I'm old, and of course Floyd is my favorite non metal band, so now I'm curious how my favorite metal song would sound the 8 bit way, so I won't ask you to do the whole album, just 1 song, please!! Phantom of the Opera by Iron Maiden. The original version please!!!
At first, I took it as a joke, but the more I was listening the more I was carried by the power of your music combined with the power of my imagination. I really appreciated your effort to transcript the vocal in the great gig in the sky. Perfect for the end of my acid.
This was superbly done! I don't know if you have ever heard any of the Peter Gabriel Era of Genesis, but some of their songs would sound amazing 8-bit. Excellent work on this album! 🤘🤘🤘 Thanks for making my day.
