:: there is nothing that makes me smile more than 8-bit music and ice cream. Check out this new website / video game music netlabel called Pterodactyl Squad. Pretty amazing. I just downloaded their 8-bit Weezer album – which btw has all the classics! Link here to check out their other releases. H/T to Jenn Wong. Bravo, well done. // AjS
