The project was conceived by Peter Godfrey (one half of the ambient group 'cubus') who experimented with the accidentally discovered effect of merging the memory states of various Mega Drive/Genesis games into one another using an emulator. The various results compiled on this album show the variety of the effects that can be created by using this so-called 'Save State Bending' technique - from the ambient drone of mcbpete's 'Echo Jr into Sonic 2 Beta', dark glitch of Pselodux's 'Sonistar3', music concrete of Hautlle's 'MK2vYB' right through to melodic minimalism of Alex Tripp's 'ghouls_into_outrun_2019_(japan)_003'. Genesis Bending shows what would be the result of a console creating its own soundtrack based on cannibalised CPU instructions and non musical data.Don't be fooled by the description, this cannot be deduced to a cold concept experimental album. So kick back and follow along with the incidental harmonies and spontaneous song structures. stream on the official Record Label Records website here Flac Download rar Mp3 Download zip This is the first entry in the free Record Label Records SEGA Series.

taphead Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 Lol so much of me and mcbpete. Very psyched to listen to this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcbpete Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 Lol so much of me and mcbpete. Yeah I was a bit conscious about that after I sent it - sorry for those that supplied tracks that didn't get on there, it was more about the convenience of having lossless versions of the tracks rather than the quality of them ...

awepittance Posted March 2, 2011 Author Share Posted March 2, 2011 everybody did a great job it's actually harder than the description makes it seem to get sounds this good out of the process. i was trying to make something but i gave up. been listening to it all day, i'm really proud of being part of this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Benedict Cumberbatch Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 great stuff. on one hand i wish it was presented as an experimental glitch album with no explanation of how it was created. on the other its a fascinating listen knowing how it was made. i would have been interested in the reaction of people who didnt know how it was made Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soloman Tump Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 Just gotta bump this shit to say I listened to this again at some point in the early hours of sunday morning while making breakfast for me and my mates post clubbing. It went down better than expected! Great stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awepittance Posted October 11, 2011 Author Share Posted October 11, 2011 i'm still waiting on the Dusty Cart release too, that one is going to be pretty awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rst Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 although i know the tracks were made using an emulator, this stuff makes me wish i'd never sold my mega drive (euro-name of the genesis, quite lame i know....) - the sound chip is quite capable, i have to say!!
