Triobelisk - Trilogy mp3 download

GEL

I'm considering myself very lucky to have recently purchased a sealed copy of this cassette off of discogs for $3.00 with only 50 manufactured I knew I could not hesitate. I'm glad that I did because the music on here lives up to what I've been digging from Swedish Columbia with the recent purchases of both the Tanimura Midnight and Ghost Car Records compilation cassettes that come in very nice mini-VHS mock up cases. The music that is featured on Trilogy is pretty hard to describe but if you've listened to Midnight Tanimura and Ghost Records compilation this is right up the same alley. The music reminds me of the music I would hear on some of these classic video games.I guess the tag being thrown around nowadays is "chiptune" and I'd agree it does have the sound of 8-Bit era of video games starting with Genesis / Nintendo. With that being said, the design on this Triobelisk cassette j-card reminds me of the old pre-Nintendo / Sega Genesis home video game box art. The tape runs a little over an hour which is perfect running time for music like this. After listening to it you feel like you've been locked up in an arcade from the 1980's. The spoken parts on this tape which introduced each EP fits right in and does not take away from the listening experience. Besides these spoken intros the music is purely instrumental. The silver cassette is also another nice little touch. Comes with a download card for those who do not own tape players who fear for the safety of their tapes and not risking them getting chewed up by faulty cassette playback units. Go to the bandcamp site or youtube to hear more excerpts from Triobelisk and get sucked into this new genre of music that's starting to pop up in more record stores with no Adam Sandler and his crew to try and stop them.
