View Full Version : Some band that apparently appeals to gamers...

Does anyone happen to have the issue of Entertainment Weekly from a couple of weeks ago with the Matrix on the cover? I remember reading in the music section a tiny blurb about some band that appeals to video game fans (something about Mario Kart and Dig Dug...). I made a mental note to check Kazaa for it and of course that note was lost in the pile of uselessness that is my brain. Any help or info on the band?

Check out the minibosses. http://www.minibosses.com/ They play rock versions of classic games. Download some of their mp3s on their page, they are pretty neat.

Thanks, I don't know if that's the one in Entertainment Weekly, but they'll do!

I'd also like to recommend the Neskimos (http://www.unf.edu/~hend0008/NESkimos.html). Much harder (and more fun to listen to) than the Minibosses.

Might have been Boomkat? They use the PS to make some of their beats/samples...

I love the minibosses, especially their contra and castlevania 2 remixes.
