Dark Side of the Moon
So 40 years after the release of this classic, some dude remade the entire album using an 8 bit Nintendo synthesizer. The results are…well, I’d call it an early-mid-pre-post-postmodern classic. I’m sure you’ll all have your own favorite parts, but or me, because I’m silly, the highlight is the rendering of the footsteps at the beginning of On the Run, a little after four minutes in. Check this sh*t out.
Happy Birthday, DSM. As you can see, you’ve only just begun. Also: It’s Caturday!

now we just need a level for Mario to run in
I totally got kicked out of a movie theater for bringing in a boombox with DSOTM so I could try to sink it up with the new Oz movie.
@godfatherofgreenbay - too bad. i applaud the effort, though.
Nice
@firetyger - thanks. it’s just a link, of course. someday i’ll actually create something of artistic value again. probably. i hope.
Logged on and was pleased to see you’re still blogging! Hope you’re well
Hey, you posted.
Also, this was a good little pick-me-up at 2:45 a.m. when I’ve been commenting on my students’ papers and discovered two of them have almost definitely plagiarized.
Thanks.
@epiginoskete - yes i did. sort of. glad i could provide some relief!
Thank you so much for your comment!
I’m not very smart, though, so the “cumulus clouds” thing was totally wasted on me.
@absolutangel64 - thank you! cumulus clouds was the sort of nonsense (minus the engrish) that you mentioned in your delightful post (uh…which i forgot to recommend…fixed
.
@complicatedlight - Oh! Thank you for the recommendation and for explaining “cumulus clouds” to me! I was actually still thinking about it this whole time and the closest I got to an answer was, “Oh no…was it because I was too lazy to put Walnut’s ‘Negligence! NEGLIGENCE!’ thoughts in a cloud?!” I know that sounds totally out there, but I’ve actually been called out for not using comic bubbles correctly. :-/ Your explanation, however, makes me feel a lot better now!
Thanks again!
Haha. Nice!! And cute cat pic! XD
@epiginoskete - Nahhhh. They simply all had exactly the same thought as someone else at exactly the right moment. Don’t'cha know?
Them googly eyes are just hilarious!!
