PB080 | Monotron - Chain Sequence

Chiptune metal maestro Monotron delivers his debut Pxl-Bot release in the form of 7-track EP ‘Chain Sequence’. Blending guitars with sampled drums and chiptune melodies, metal sensibilities and melodic meanderings form a cohesive release as hooky as it is headbangable.

Crossing melodic death metal with cyberpunk chiptune, Monotron creates a remarkable balance between clashing atmospheres and emotions. For a debut chiptune release there is a noteworthy level of attention paid to the details within. From the space-fuelled expanses of ‘Chapter I’ to the grandiose of ‘Chapter IV’, Monotron’s ability to create large tunes from small sounds is striking. Memorable melodies, strongly bound structures and creatively crafted atmospheres make ‘Chain Sequence’ one of the best debuts we’ve housed.

PB078 | Blip Noir - Before The End Of The World

Having gone through a name change since last appearing here on Pxl-Bot, Blip Noir (previously DJ Eastern Blok) makes a spectacular return. A new name, a stunning debut album but the same immense music!

With driving beats, wonderful melodies and dance move inducing bass lines "Before The End Of The World" packs a punch. Every track is distinct and full of character, which leads to the overall album crafting a story of apocalypse inducing excellence.

PB077 | Whitely & Love Through Cannibalism - Wonderful Island

Keeping summer alive as the seasons move towards winter, we are very proud to present to you a simply incredible split from Whitely and Love Through Cannibalism, Wonderful Island!

Creating a wonderfully upbeat sound, this album manages to conjure images of beautiful tropical beaches and luxuriously blue oceans with every beat and note. Each artist has their unique styles, but the entire album stays cohesive. Whitely starts off the album with his unique blend of sunny, dancey and downright cool tracks! Having featured here on Pxl-Bot before, Whitely this time ventures away from the straight chip sounds that we have heard before, but still draws heavily from the familiar sounds and styles that we have listened to and loved. Love Through Cannibalism then follows up behind, with his glorious seapunk, chipbreak goodness! Each track packed full of energy, sea spray and golden sand. Guaranteed to make even the most docile of fish grow feet and move them to the beat, grab this album now!

PB075 | Analog - Azul Petróleo

Pxl-Bot’s favourite Chilean dance-floor decimator returns graciously to our shores with a re-release of the much overlooked lo-fi hardstyle chip house genre definer, Azul Petróleo.

Featuring six tracks of non-stop brutal floor-levelling stompers fuelled by the injustice felt within his own country, Analog reached a new level of indispensable uniqueness upon this release, and we’re both hoping a fresh spotlight on this fantastic piece of work will reveal just how ahead of its time it was. So nearly a full year after its original release (or over a year if you’re reading this past the eleventh of July) and with brand new artwork by Spanish sweetheart Love Through Cannibalism, Pxl-Bot are incredibly proud to present to you, Azul Petróleo.

PB074 | Auxcide - Of Atoms And Stardust

After making a very impressive first appearance here on Pxl-Bot with his track 'Impact' on our recent 'One Year Later' compilation'. Auxcide returns, this time brandishing his simply amazing debut album 'Of Atoms And Stardust'.

Using two Gameboy SPs, Auxcide manages to craft images of immense and epic landscapes. Each track telling a story. Ensnaring you with their beautifully written melodies then carrying you further into the music with their brilliantly programmed drums and dance move inducing bass lines. Each and every track reeks of individual character while still maintaining a consistency and fluidity throughout where one song flows perfectly into another, to better show off this effect Auxicde has included a 'set' in which the whole album has been mixed together to form one continuous epic tale. Delaying listening to this album any longer could have severe health risks, so what are you waiting for?

PB073 | V/A - One Year Later

It has been a great year, full of amazing music and awesome people. None of this would of happened if not for the support of our fans and of course the incredibly talented artists that we have worked with. Many thanks go out to all of you! We've come a long way since starting up, however we still have a lot of growing up to do (a 1 year old is still a baby). But with the continued support of everyone we know that will be possible.

This compilation also marks the return of involvement by Pxl-Bot co-founder Andrew Kilpatrick and an exciting new era in the label's life.
