A collection of 8-bit and glitchy audio samples constructed throughout 2011. Henry Homesweet had always loved the raw and groovy waveforms that retro consoles generate. The tones, textures and unique warmth of these systems are the main reason that they have continued to be a staple sound source in his production. The samples here are entirely original and have been extracted from most of my music released last year or designed exclusively for this release. There are over 250 individual sounds and loops in this sample pack including a folder of SFX designed for an independant arcade game that was never released. This sample pack is royalty free, meaning that you are more than welcome to use these sounds in your creative projects, either commercial or non-commerical. (Archive: 49 MB) Format : WAV

A collection of 100 unique raw glitch sounds. Importing progam files, system data and other artifacts as raw data into an audio editor can result in some harsh noises but amongst the noise you can find some very interesting sounds hidden away. These sounds were selected from hundreds of minutes of noise during a couple of months of experimentation, I have been using these sounds for a while now and I thought someone else could have some fun with them!
