Welcome to Intellivision Music

You probably know Intellivision as the classic video game system of the 1980s. So what is Intellivision Music? We recognize that video games have seeped into our culture. Those who belong to the generations under age 35 cannot remember a time when arcade and video games didn't exist. It is natural that video games influence the artists and musicians of these generations and their work. Through Intellivision Music, we will bring you a variety of artists who are creating music that reflects how video games have affected their lives.

Seth and Stacey have performed across 2 continents with their arsenal of 8 bit weapons, which include a Commodore 64 and 128, a couple Nintendo Gameboy classics, an Intellivision synthesizer, a Suzuki Omnichord, hybrid lo-fi acoustic-electric drums, and an assortment of other vintage and toy synthesizers.

Inspired by classic videogame soundtracks and electronic music from the 70s and 80s, 8 Bit Weapon delivers a sound that is as unique as it is original. Clever melodies, nostalgic atmosphere, and energetic beats create a decidedly modern sound while maintaining a fun, lo-tech aesthetic.
