Below you’ll find some info and the necessary particulars of the unexpected bowtie releases to date. For a sneak look at chiptune related music that isn’t on here yet, check out the unexpected bowtie page over at the 8 bit collective.
All the tracks below are in mp3 format at 320kbps. For those that don’t speak audiophile, it means they sound nice and high quality (as far as MP3s go anyway)
surprise climax (June 2011)
An 8-bit inspired split electronic EP release with The Wet Dreams. Tracks 1-3 are The Wet Dreams, tracks 4-6 are unexpected bowtie. Tracks 3 and 4 are both written with the same base melody.
Stream below, or download as a zip with album artwork here.
habeas corpus (April 2011)
The sophmore unexpected bowtie release… and a bit of a departure from the debut, with tracks composed using Gameboys, an Amiga 600 and a Commodore 64. Not to mention the musical saw.
You can stream the tracks or download them individually via the Soundcloud player below, or download the full thing (including artwork) directly here.
26 hour days (2010/2011)
The debut album, filled with mandolins, banjos, and all sorts of other wonderful things. A folky affair.
If you’d rather download the whole album at once, along with some well considered pictures, printable artwork and the lyrics, you can do so here. If you just want the lyrics, that’s okay too.
It’s nice to have a choice, eh?
Miscellany.
b-sides, c-sides, and oddities.
