GB-303 - New Sequencer Cart for Gameboy

Hype hype hype! A new sequencer cartridge for the Gameboy Classic has appeared. As the name suggest emulates the sound of the famous TB-303 synthesizer. It can run as a slave to LSDJ or standard MIDI, as well as a master for Nanoloop.

Orders for the first batch of 20 open tonight, so you better be quick if you want one.

More info on the project can be found here.

[album] Corrosão Seletiva by Pulselooper

Gotta take a break from all these mindblowing demos. Instead, I'm gonna promote this excellent new Gameboy release, by no other than the mighty Pulselooper. He's back, and he's pissed! From the release notes:

Over the past decade, a new Middle Class has emerged in Brazil. Very partly due to government aid that since 2002 had as its main point the extinction of extreme poverty, leveraging classes C to B and B to A. This new Middle Class, abnormally, took for itself a point of view of hatred and rancor to the same popular programs that, in a way, helped create their new status. And they recently went to the streets, asking for demands like the obligatory prison of young people under 18 years, dreading an absurd so-called "communist government in Brazil" and also supporting the back of the military dictatorship from the 60s and 70s. This album is a tribute to them.

[demo] It Came from Planet Zilog by phantasy

I'm amazed and very pleased by the wide range of platform choices this year at Revision. Now for the 2nd place in the oldskool compo, here's a Gameboy Color release. Stunning code by Dalton, slick gfx by exocet, and lovely music by a certain zabutom.

[demo] 8088 MPH by Hornet/CRTC/DESiRE

And now for the possibly most awesome production from Revision this year - a new prod for the original IBM PC (with CGA graphics) by Hornet and friends. Perfectly well deserved first place in the oldskool compo.

Update: Trixter has posted some in-depth background information about the demo on his blog.

40 Years Microsoft

Today we salute an unlikely birthday candidate ;) Yes, it's been 40 years since a certain Bill Gates and a certain Paul Allen founded some obscure, long forgotten company named Micro-Soft. I'm sure nobody remembers them nowadays, but once upon a time they were well known for fabulous products like the Xenix operating system, and the Z-80 SoftCard addon for the Apple ][.
