From the genius who brought you the MIDINES and 2 seminal releases on 8bitpeoples, comes a new album, released on mp3death, a label which has also released works by chiptune artists Gijs Gieskes, Overthruster, Firebrand boy, The Commodore 64 Orchestra and others in the past.
Those familiar with x|k’s (pronounced “kix”) music would know that it is perhaps one of the most astonishing things one might ever hear. Frantic, pulsating 150 bpm hard techno/trance coming out of a reverse-engineered video game console from the 1980s.
For this release, “Baud Of Passion”, x|k slows it down a little, and the album is less intense when compared to his hard techno output on 8bitpeoples. But this new release loses none of the dancefloor sensibilities. “warm wishes” follows the general aesthetic of minimal techno, with short blips and a restrained bassline, “hwy chipmusik” has a nice driving detroit style bass, while “aktivity” was made to be put into a set at full-tilt, with its rave stylings.
The release really drives home the point that good music can be made on anything, and should be. x|k’s mastery of the raw waveforms of the NES and his skills in engineering his own music production system have set him out for cult status. If you ever get to experience his legendary live sets you are bound to leave the floor completely stunned.
*The album is available in 2 formats, as a continous DJ-mix and as separate individual tracks.
Label: mp3death

January 29th, 2008 at 3:13 pmHello,
My name is Andrew, I’m working in European company “Bidding Expert inc”.
Bidding Expert Inc. is a unique company that provides a variety of services to buyers and sellers on the virtual auction web site eBay as well as on many online stores like Amazon, BestBuy, B&H and IBM. Bidding Expert acts as a facilitator to help make payments to third parties for purchases made on eBay and online stores. Our services fill the gap for international buyers and sellers that are unable to fully participate in e-commerce due to inefficiencies of the banking and PayPal system in their countries. The services are mainly oriented for clients from the former Soviet Union, Eastern Europe and Israel.
We invite citizens from other countries for cooperation. Functions of the regional agent: receiving and cashing out payments from our customers (for goods, auction items and etc.) and then transferring funds to our European clients.
If you make a decision to work with us, you’ll have to:
work no less than 2 hours per day (possibly in the evening);
check your e-mail box several times a day;
you should have opened PayPal.com account(If you don’t have one, you can register at paypal.com) because our clients buy and sell items through PayPal ;
be a legal resident in the territory of the USA or European Union;
be of maturity age.
Your commission will be equal 10% from each sale/resale operation we make!
For instance: you receive a $1000 USD to your paypal account. You withdraw the money and keep $100 (10% of $1000) for yourself. Your net income is $100. The rest of the money you transfer to our European clients by Western Union or MoneyGramm.
No special expertise or knowledge in any specific areas is needed.
You will enjoy working with us as you’ll have a real opportunity to work as an independent contractor and to earn money right from your virtual home office.
How you can apply this part time job ? It is easy as 1,2,3..
1. Please contact me by e-mail: andrew_gubert@yahoo.com, if you can`t see my e-mail on this page: andrew_gubert(@)yahoo.com
2. I will send you application form which you should fill, print, sign and send back to my e-mail.
3. You should scan and send me your ID (passport or driver licence).
Why we need your photo or scanned copy of your documents?
We needed scanned copy of your documents (you can close SSN or DL numbers) to verify that you live at current address. There are two simple reasons for this:
First of all, we have already encountered problems when manager candidates gave us the fake street addresses or the address of the neighbor. As a result the agent has stolen money.
Secondary, we do not hire people under 18. You may scan your DL or passport. It is up to you. We recommend blacking out the Social Security and Driver License numbers. There is a risk that someone else can gain access to the e-mail and steal this private information. We just need to see your full name and Full Street address on this copy.
Also we provide transactions as exchange PayPal to E-gold, Ukash, Liberty Reserve for -10%, for example: we send you paypal $1000, you should send us $900 Liberty Reserve, Ukash or e-gold.
Thank you.
Bidding Expert inc.
