Amazing Amiga tribute from Weta Workshop luminaries
« on: July 18, 2013, 04:33:08 AM »
New Zealand band Ghidoragh have released a special addition of their new album in a  special-edition Amiga style box set.

This is actually a project by some guys from Kiwi special effects house WETA, including Greg “Dr Grordbort” Broadmore and Christian Pearce, who was one of the main designers behind the look of Elysium.

Each 16bit videogame inspired box features the EP on everyone's favourite future-proof format, the 3.5" floppy disk!
Now you can enjoy this fast paced and furious EP in glorious retro-lofi - the whole EP in under 1.1mb! Why settle for less efficient formats?

Each individually numbered and signed box features spectaculargh arghtwork created by the band members themselves.

Also included are a collectable crisply-folded poster, a game manual and exclusive download access to the EP, re-imagined in chiptune style.

Comes with the full-res EP in the format of your choice
