 Off What Now? You're going to need some coffee and sun-glasses. Off Peak is a Music Game. A Video Song. A virtual curation for art and neo-jazz. An excuse to listen to tunes that vaguely looks like a first-person adventure game. Brookland, NY, like three-ish years ago: Enter a trio of musicians, each pulling double duty, calling themselves Archie Pelago. Hirshi (Trumpet, turntables), Cosmo D(Cello, Ableton), and Kroba (Saxophone, Ableton). Specifically, it was Cosmo D that put together a game for one of their songs, Saturn V. Some how, that lead to an album that never happened being turned into a Game, Off-Peak. The Game happened first. Only less than a week ago did Archie Pelago put out the music. Later it get's tossed around the LP sub-sphere as a kind of curiosity. It's mentioned by Kotaku, Rock, Paper, Shotgun, and a couple of others only in passing. Saw Vinny from VineSauce play it once. It's free, By the By, if you want to play along. -->Linky<-- So, what's the plan, Beatnik? Well, I play the game, but I kind of just want to show you guys the music. I keep returning to the game over and over, looking at stuff and listening. Off-Peak is like that. Very chill. So, risking strikes against my Youtube HQ, I figured we'd go on a tour, you and I. It'll go by quick. This isn't a long game. In the mean time, I recommend linking out to your favorite Jazz and chill tunes. I'm no expert in music, but trust me on the coffee and glasses. Rifts

No Gravitas posted:How about some Miles Davis? Listening to Miles Davis when I'm drawing makes me feel like James Bond. The Conery Bond. Don't know why. No Gravitas posted:EDIT: Should be obvious, but "Cyrk" from all those circus posters... means "Circus". In Polish. When I first played, I thought Cyrk was the artist. Given how important the Circus is to the game, that makes sense. Meanwhile...

No Gravitas posted:Oh dear. I know this is related to an LP from forever ago, but... When you started eating a ton of cookies my eyes shot to the upper left corner to see how much piss you get from them. So sorry. I hope no one forgets Crypt Worlds. You get 2 Crumb(s), 1 Bone(s), and 5 piss!
