Press Joy Button

by Flash Arnold

supported by

Shane Dangers made me feel like I was inside the video games!! 💯💎❤ Favorite track: Stage 2.

kmxexii A small sojourn with the Commodore 64, and all too brief, especially given how the same rippling synth hook is used in both "Stage 2" and "Boss Battle". "Stage 1" is more of a straight mash-up of chiptune and synth, outrun with a funky beat. I like the shift toward a softer tone in the second half. "Flash Dance 64" is the longest song here, with a neat intro that breaks into a fun, stomping dance beat that would work great as the intro or end credits. Cool stuff, but moves by too fast. Favorite track: Flash Dance 64 (Bonus).
