8bitpeoples is a netlabel based on the principle of pushing technical and creative boundaries. Founded in 1999, it was born out of an appreciation for the unique aesthetic character of early-generation computers and video game systems, and the belief that hardware has a lifetime measured in decades, not months. Like the subculture we seek to represent, we reject intended use and planned obsolescence — champions of forgotten tech, hijacking the future.

2011-01-05 : 8bitpeoples - Hooray, the new year is tolerably new! Pianist and weatherman John Pohlman retires to play spiffy piano jazz and unremittingly listen to Psilodump during his long-awaited vacation, tuned in with his venerable portable travel radio. After 30 years, Pacman finally finds a qualified metronome to aid him in his training towards eating pac-dot-nom's in unmitigated on-target sync with even the most adequate techno rave beats around. His iron determination is undisputed! As for Psilodump, the new year only heralds supplementary adventures beyond challenge!

2006-12-22 : 8bitpeoples - Make no mistake — the machines only appear lovable until they have you in their pincers. From quirky playful beats to refined vocal performances, Psilodump hits hard in this most sonically lush of 8bitpeoples releases. With a diverse mixture of thick textures and lo-fi samples, Mutiny of the Robots is a diversion from naked chip music, but if it doesn't make you want to get naked anyway, you're probably a robot yourself.

memory loss

psilodump • 2004 • 8BP040

2004-03-02 : 8bitpeoples - Now, some things are better left unspoken. But that is beside the point. Yet, the point is not the issue here. The issue is omitted and the reason forgotten. Memories may become corrupted but beauty remains. Still, that is no excuse for acting blind … or maybe it is … what you have lost might not just be your memory.

Candy Mind

Room With No Exit 12"

psilodump • 2006 • CANDY028

2006-08-30 : Candy Mind - Now it’s time for yet another virtual 12″ vinyl, don’t you think? Well, irrespective of what you think, it IS time for another virtual 12″ vinyl. And this time it’s time for Psilodump, a very Read more

2006-08-30 : Candy Mind - Now it’s time for yet another virtual 12″ vinyl, don’t you think? Well, irrespective of what you think, it IS time for another virtual 12″ vinyl. And this time it’s time for Psilodump, a very experienced musician who’ve been releasing his music on vinyl, CD and many other mediums, to do his debut in the virtual 12″-community.

“I think this is a big step for me and my musical carrier.” Psilodump says. “I like the virtual 12″- community a lot, many of my friends are virtutwelveinchers themselves, even my girlfriend is, so I’ve been feeling very frozen out not having any virtual 12″ on my discography. So this is a really important landmark for me.”

And it’s a landmark indeed!

A1. ROOM WITH NO EXIT (PART 476) Psilodump is trapped in a room from which he cannot escape. But, how did he get in here, when there are no doors to the room?

A2. DO NOT WANT (KATZEKATZEKATZE-REMIX) Katzekatzekatze is visiting the world of Psilodumps virtual 12″ vinyl. But he doesn’t want to, and is screaming loud and bad “Do not want!”

B1. NINJASNAKES (DISKMEDEL MIX) We’ve all heard the story about a princess kissing a frog, turning the frog into a prince. But have you heard the story about the ninja kissing the snake and the snake is turning into a frog and the ninja’s turning into a ninjasnake? Psilodump has, and he won’t be shy to tell you that story…

B2. OK, SO THE NINJAS WENT TO SPACE This is the continuation of the previous song. The ninjasnake and the frog are, together as friends, travelling into outer space. Just to find you there…

2005-12-21 : Candy Mind - One morning when he wakes up something is just wrong. A weird feeling is going up and down his spine and he doesn’t really know what’s up or down. Something is haunting Psilodump. He packs his bag and sets out on a journey…

Now when he’s standing here, with the bag in one hand and his Dick Tracy novel in the other, prepared to travel far, he doesn’t know at all what awaits him…

And that may be good, because if he knew about all the ghouls, all the swamp eating pirates, all the golden zombies, would he then leave…?

  1. BAK8 Lost in an abandoned town, inhabited by fearless walking dead, Psilodump is trying to get out of harms way but at the same time he wants to find out what has really happened here. Do not fasten your seatbelts, or you can be sure they’ll just fall of.

  2. PIN Psilodump is hearing a whisper from a place he has never been to before, but it is a place he still remembers. He hesitates for a moment, but then he continues right ahead…

  3. FEIGN EMBRACE At first it felt like the journey more and more turned into a fun trip, but Psilodump soon realizes that that’s nothing but a false impression, this was a, a… a feign embrace!

  4. BITTEN Psilodump enters the ghost-train-roller-coaster and must duck to avoid the swinging axes, a construction made with the purpose of cutting his head off. The ghosts is just laughing and Psilo is really wondering when this hell-trip will end.

  5. RETHOUGHT7 Face to face with the final evil creation of madness, Psilodump is trying to find a way to battle this sinister beast. Then the voice is whispering in darkness again, with a voice so quite,: “Hit the eye Psilo, the eye!”

  6. LOST AND The beast is dead and Psilo is finding out the truth. But the truth is not always so pleasant…

  7. ALDRIG IGEN Tired and exhausted by the terrible adventure, Psilodump states that he never want this kind of stuff to happen again… Aldrig igen!

  8. FEIGN EMBRACE (AYHAN AYDIN COMMUTERTRAIN REMIX) At last when he thought everything was over and he is heading back home, Psilodump is accidentally embarking on another adventure of a lifetime!. Instead of taking the usual train he makes a serious mistake and boards the horrifying commuter-train…

To be continued…

Sov Gott

2005-10-06 : Candy Mind - All kind of animals (cats, goats, dogs, beards) in the big fruity candy forests are coming to listen when bitter sweet super hero Psilodump is guesting the realm of Candy Mind with his newest inventions Psilodump is showing us all kind of crazy stuff; stuffed moles mutated with a potato in Trak2, alien cereals in Transport and a very dangerous killing machine filled with ice in Sitting very still.

It’s kind of a freak show, and everyone comes to the freak show, to laugh at the freaks and the geeks, everyone comes to the freak show, but nobody laughs when they leave…

Coming home from Psilodumps crazy show is kind of hard, you know a lot of weird nightmares is waiting for you when you’ll go to sleep. Psilodump has just got one greeting: saying “sov gott!”.

  1. TRAK2 Honouring his Mexican ancestors, Psilodump is sending out his purple tentacles for catching more of the jelly stuff that he likes. And what ever you do: stay clear of the tentacles!!

  2. YTA I A surface is always a surface and will always be a surface, it’s what’s hiding under the surface that is the question. And what is hiding under Psilodumps surface? You will never know for sure!

  3. INSIDE THE TRANSPORT When Psilodump is in a really good mood after a gig he is always going straight into the transport, and is sitting there until next gig. It may sound a bit boring, but the transport is a very cool place with a lot of strange stuff in it. For example a magic cup.

  4. YTA II The exciting sequel of track number two on this release. Don’t miss it, or it will miss you!

  5. SITTING VERY STILL Since the other person is sitting very still, your brain emphasizes the information coming from the moving hand, and parts of the person’s face disappears… This is what’s happening to our Psilodump.
