Maybe the nerdiest thing I've ever done

... and by all accounts I've done some pretty damn nerdy things in my life. Head on over to happyfrappy.com to download my NES-ified adaptations of two popular Guster songs: What You Wish For (from Lost and Gone Forever) and Manifest Destiny (from the upcoming Ganging Up on the Sun). Members of the Guster messageboard rave, "holy crap! someone has nanoloops!" before getting distracted by an animated GIF in someone's signature.

I didn't do it with Nanoloop, actually (69 EUR? Who can afford that?). I did it in Schism Tracker. There are a number of people on my friends list for whom NES music and its faithful reproduction are an abiding love and concern. Guys: I'm sorry if I messed this one up. I tried to be as faithful to the NES sound as I could!

(And yes, I know I'm about six months too late for this kind of thing.)
