AfroDJMac "Nintendo EP" Free Download and Video

The Nintendo EP is a collection of songs I've made over the years, using my Nintendo Entertainment System as a sound source.  Some of these songs have since seen many different incarnations, such as the surf rock take that was Psycho Rainbow, but these are the original versions.  Sometimes you are inspired to make music because of thoughts, feelings, other songs you like, etc. These songs were inspired by the sound of the Nintendo.  Those familiar timbres are what really got these tracks off the ground, and from there the other aspects of songwriting were applied.  You'll hear guitars, basses, and drums, but I don't think these songs would have come to life without our little grey 8-bit friend.  Please feel free to download the EP and show your friends, put it on playlists, add to your blog, and give it to your uncle Otis who happens to have major connections in the music industry :)

Below  is an appropriate cartoon I made for the track "Yea Yea Yea."  I wish animation wasn't so painstakingly time-consuming, nevertheless I'm hoping to put together another cartoon like this during the summer.
