Enjoy The Ride Records in collaboration with Giovanni Rotondo is thrilled to announce the release of The 8-bit Time Capsule. This unique album offers a compelling journey through reimagined worlds of beloved video game franchises.
The 8-bit Time Capsule crafts a story of imagined, long-lost chapters of famous game franchises, envisioning alternative timelines and realities. Imagine these pieces of music were hidden in a time capsule and, in a future timeline, they are finally unearthed. This concept translates into a sonic tapestry of "what-if" scenarios within each franchise, spanning styles from orchestral to metal, rock, and hip-hop. The result is a captivating, cinematic listening experience.
It is pressed on 140g vinyl and housed in a 350gsm jacket, featuring cover art inspired by the iconic N64 system packaging, and includes a double-sided full-color 12" x 24" insert filled with exclusive artwork and detailed information for each track.
