Their new album is an exact 8-bit "chiptunes" re-creation of the group's 2012 debut release. Chris Donnelly has meticulously programmed and arranged all of the tracks on Tell using 8-bit technology, and the result is stunning.
Myriad3's creativeness and musical open-mindedness shines through with this album. Tell((chip)) is digitally available today.
With the success of their 2012 debut album, Myriad3 is bringing Tell back - this time in chiptunes style!
For the uninitiated, chiptunes music is an early form of synthesized electronic music made for PSG sound chips used in vintage gaming consoles, computers and arcade machines. As the genre has evolved, it has also incorporated music designed to emulate the sounds of old PSG chip music, while current EDM and electronica artists have occasionally featured PSG sounds.
This album will be completely different than the original recording, and is something to look forward to.
Tell((chip)) will be available September 25, 2015.
We're proud to announce the release of Home for the Holidays, by the greatest jazz organist on the planet today, Joey DeFrancesco. Home for the Holidays is Joey's first holiday album, and the first recording released on his new label JDM. Hurry - Christmas is right around the corner!!
Just Passing Through: The Breithaupt Brothers Songbook Vol. II
Call them "modern standards." The compositions of the prolific and terrific songwriting team of Jeff and Don Breithaupt are clearly modeled on the classic compositions of that golden age of songwriting represented in the Great American Songbook. Like such role models as The Gershwins, Rodgers & Hart and Cole Porter, these talented siblings devote themselves to the marriage of lovingly crafted melodies and well-honed lyrics, all arranged intricately, then sung by the cream of the crop of the pop and jazz singers of the era.
Just Passing Through features an elite crew of Grammy and Juno Award winners, platinum-selling and internationally acclaimed artists: Kellylee Evans, Denzal Sinclaire, Emilie-Claire Barlow, Ron Sexsmith, Jackie Richardson, Heather Bambrick, Marc Jordan, Paul Shaffer, Sophie Milman, Laila Biali, Sarah Slean, Monkey House, Patricia O'Callaghan, Ian Thomas, and Tyley Ross. Whew!
Brent Black from Critical Jazz calls Myriad3 "Cutting Edge, The Future of Modern Jazz". Their new album The Where comes out today in the US, and Sept 26 in Europe.
