Having enjoyed extreme fame and fortune after placing first in the “Student/Apprentice Contest in Music” at the 6th annual G.A.N.G. awards earlier this year, Michael “Skitch” Schiciano is finally using his powers for good, launching a G.A.N.G. community blog titled “Famicom Fridays.” The idea is that he will weekly/bi-weekly/whenever-he-wants share his love for chip music with the world by writing a chip tune for your listening pleasure.
His first week’s offering is appropriately titled “Famicom Fridays Anthem,” which he admits takes a nod from Contra. Good stuff, and written with Reason, interestingly. This is good news, as we need more places to get quality chip music!
Do you think Skitch’s Famicom Fridays is a good idea? Would you like to see something similar to this on OSV in the future?
