This day brings us the mighty Skrow! debut of a giant of the progressive chiptune scene, Zan-Zan-Zawa-Veia (hereinafter abbreviated as ZZZV or Zanzan out of my own sheer incorrigible laziness).  With 26 tracks at just under half an hour, this album functions as a sort of cross between an imaginary retro game soundtrack and a collection of 8bit library music.  For example, #082 brings you the Neo Kobe weather report, #075 is the commercial jingle for Mr. Saturn-Os breakfast cereal, #087 is the theme song to the short-lived sitcom I Was a Teenage Robo, #074 takes you to your Mute City Nightly News traffic report… I’ll just leave off there, yeah?  Point being: this is a rapidfire collection of at times catchy, at times elusive, highly image-invoking, always interesting, all around good shit, capped off by an almost-8-minute epic slice of proggy, mathy Zanzan supremeness.  You have nothing to lose but your pants.
