Welcome to 8bit Ideas! Home of the 8bit Warriors, Mark, Christian, and Paul. We call ourselves the 8bit warriors because we were gamers from a simpler time. No 3D graphics or enhanced AI. Sprites ruled our gaming universe and our imaginations were texture. We fought with 2 buttons, sometimes 3. We had a code that changed gaming forever. Now we're pseudo-adults. We long for the things of the 8bit era and have long since carried that simplicity. Next-gen? It's all about last-gen here. And the ...

Evillips equals 100% computer music at a low, deep pace. Lo-fi soundscapes filled with 8bit beats inspired by rap, funk, samba and bossa nova combined with simplistic melancholic synth-pianos, bubblin' hypnotic basslines and barely understandable acrobatic psychodely. Distortion and electroacustic modulation adds a twist to the looping melodies, which sometimes are smooth and calmin', but also creepy and disturbing.
