Alescere (DATA113)

by 2xAA

supported by

NERDDISCO It has so much energy, every track is pure awesomeness, I can dance all night long!!! And it finally contains dnb <3 Favorite track: Night Time Waves.

Thomas Lowe Best NL work i've ever heard. Favorite track: Centrifugal Slap.

WYLDxCAT From the Latin word meaning to grow or to move upward, Alescere feels a fitting title for 2xAA's third full length Nanoloop release. From use of an all digital signal chain, to ascending blips and slamming bass. the GBA is on full display here.
Alescere soars through the genres and will have you turning up your speakers for more. Sam (2xAA) is the real deal. a genuine gentleman and curiously clever cat. always willing to show you how to push your gameboy into another dimension. Favorite track: Subtle Greys.

Daniel Daniel This sounds so good. I cannot believe the audio fidelity of this GBA music, and the tunes slap. Favorite track: Plant Graffiti.

about

Produced on Game Boy Advance & nanoloop 2. Digitally recorded via Nintendo Game Cube & Game Boy Player by 2xAA.

Cover Art by Dubmood.

Thanks to Edie, Mum, James, Li, Matt, Dario, Gareth and Kalle for your support and inspiration.

Special thanks to Tom Lowe, Tim Pietrusky, Oliver Wittchow, Extrems and the Woodstock crew, past and present.

Alescere’s dance, techno & drum and bass fusion has pushed 2xAA’s Game Boy Advance to the limit. The album was conceived over 2020 and 2021, then tweaked and improved over 2022.

New production and digital recording methods were discovered during the 3 years of its creation, which made Alescere’s sound and range possible.

Utilising the Game Cube and Game Boy Player for digital capture eliminates the Game Boy’s noise floor, which allows for a higher dynamic range when mastering the audio.

At the time of recording, this is believed to be the first chiptune album captured from genuine hardware with a fully digital audio pathway.

This album is a product of 2020’s severe isolation and the want and need to party with friends. Play this loud and enjoy with company.

An absolute banger. It's heavy as sin and yet melodic. Do you love the sound of floppy drives? Yeah, me too. Seeing MBR play CONFIG.SYS to a mental moshpit in Glasgow this year was mind-blowing. molexroots
