Each track on the album is a unique specimen, meticulously crafted to showcase the versatility and depth of chiptune sounds.

The album is characterized by its inventive use of 8-bit sound chips, evoking the essence of vintage gaming consoles like Game Boy.

arottenbit skillfully manipulates these sounds to create a wide range of textures and atmospheres.

The lo-fi, raw quality of the 8-bit era is preserved, while contemporary production techniques enhance the overall listening experience.
