Episode description

On this episode of GeekDad HipTrax, we get all electronical. Wait; that's not even a cromulent word!

Still, in this edition we do feature a trio of fine tracks from the chippier side of the nerd music meta-community.

Chippier... That's not a real word either, is it?

"Experimutations" by Jonny Nero Action Hero
Helping me keep this streak of imaginary words going strong is the title track from Jonny Nero's new Experimutations EP. This six-track chiprock masterpiece is available from Bandcamp via their ever popular name-your-price option. So head over there and give it a listen.

"Kittens Really Aren't That Great" by Computerization
Derek Dobson really doesn't get the whole cat meme thing, but that's not the sum of his lyrical musings! In his new Fake Music EP he also touches on spaceship races, alien romance and mortality. It's another free download, so make it your own.

"Tron Scherzo (Solar Sailer mix)" by 8 Bit Weapon
Taking us home is another fine selection from 8 Bit Weapon. Just this week Seth and Michelle unveiled a tribute to the Wendy Carlos-penned Tron soundtrack (and a related custom-modded Gameboy.) This tribute EP is also available free of charge. Don't say I never gave you nuthin'!

And we apologize for the sound quality. Ken was having mic problems he didn't even realize until the taping was done.
