This work is inspired by the glitchy sounds & gestures of vintage video game soundtracks from the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) and Nintendo Game Boy consoles. It was composed with the use of guitar effect pedals in mind, though the written effects may also be achieved through the use of live audio processing software such as Ableton Live. It is recommended that this piece be performed by someone experienced with electroacoustic performance, as it requires numerous different effect changes throughout the score.
