NEScapism is a Synth-Pop Journey Through Your Childhood

This record is actually kind of dope.

None

Electronic recording artist, The Electric Witch, has managed to simultaneously return listeners to the NES era and create an approachable electronic record.

Chiptunes has been around for some time succeeding, or failing, to create 8-bit jams with varying degrees of listenability. "NEScapism" succeeds gorgeously in borrowing the looped themes from the games of our collective childhoods, and create something amazing.

Final FantasyMetroidCastlevania, Dragon Quest, and The Legend of Zelda, all make an appearance on this gauzy, atmospheric digital exploration of jams gone by. The full record is only $1, and you can listen to a few tracks for free. Listen and let us know what you think on Twitter.
