Machinae Supremacy – Sidology 1 (SID Evolution)
by Mozgus on Feb.03, 2010, under Uncategorized
Ok, so Machinae Supremacy isn’t exactly obscure, but it’s surprising how overlooked they are in the remix scene, given their history. Not only have they arranged some game music in the past, (see here for the games that the three Sidology tracks source from), but they’re one of the only groups to incorporate a legitimate piece of gaming hardware (the Commodore 64 sound chip) as an instrument and achieve this level of popularity. While some complain that their more recent albums have toned down the SID sound, with hits like Edge and Pearl, I still respect them for their original efforts. And hey, they actually did give us a little Bionic Commando mix a while back, available from their download page for free, along with tons of other stuff. A pretty outstanding band site overall.
