kmxexii A wonderfully warm album full of the boundless optimism of youth. For outrun / darksynth, "Outrun This!" and "Night of the Genesis" are obvious faves. The former is a classic outrun track and the latter smoothly mixes darkstroll with video game samples. I find myself drawn to "Without You" and Hannah Edwards's lovely vocals again and again. Honorable mention to "Up Down Left Right", the embodiment of silly, innocent fun. Much of the rest is fuzzy nostalgiasmithing. Thank you for the memories. Favorite track: Without You (Feat. Hannah Edwards).

Mr.Websta Seven years old and still up to date. This nostalgic trip is pure magic. This album brings back memories to the time where SNES was the hottest shit on the planet. There are so many pixels and passion in this music - yes it is pixel passion! Jump in, power on, press play and enjoy your trip! Favorite track: Night Of The Genesis.

djbeema Warm, wistful, nostalgic, and the cover has a SNES controller. What more do you want? Favorite track: One Year Ago.

about

PREVIEW THE ALBUM HERE! vimeo.com/68660919

Pixel Passion is the album I've been wanting to create ever since I began writing electronic music. It's my love letter to 80s synth music and early 90s video game culture. I wanted to imprint an original sound that would be my own and create nostalgic imagery in the listener without any pretense. It's been a long and very rewarding 8 months. I hope you enjoy!
