8-bit nintendo style + fretless bass video

[Ivs]

I was listening to music from Megaman 9 and improvising on my bass, and was inspired to make a track of my own. I ended up working on an 8-bit loop and limited myself to what the NES could do (three voices and a noise channel), then recorded bass on top. After 10000 attempts, I finally got it down on webcam, despite a few slip-ups!

Let me know what you think

Thanks! Yeah, the music from Megaman is actually what got me interested in making music to begin with (along with other video games). Grew up with NES-frustration and awesome melodies
