Presenting: Arisan

We are excited to announce our next release from Sidewinder! Taken from the archive of Sidewinder’s old tracker modules, Arisan has been given our special reconstruction treatment, being transformed from an 8-bit tracker module into a true studio quality recording – all while still retaining the character of the original composition.

The new single will feature two fully remastered versions of the song, the original version of the latter also being previously unreleased!

Arisan is available for streaming on YouTube and download on Bandcamp from March 22, 2019.

Presenting: DX-Ball 2 Sound Selection

Sheep Hour Records proudly presents our first release: DX-Ball 2 Sound Selection – an extended play featuring recreated revisions of the 4 songs you heard in the initial release of DX-Ball 2, back in 1998. What better way to kick things off than by celebrating the 20th anniversary of the PC game that became Sidewinder’s biggest breakthrough!

For this exclusive soundtrack release by Sidewinder, each song has been reconstructed from scratch within an unrestricted sonic environment, using the very same synthesizer that produced the sounds you would find in the respective tracker modules. As a result, you can now enjoy these songs as recreated revisions, preserving the clarity and stereo spectrum of the sounds you only heard as 8-bit monophonic samples.

DX-Ball 2 Sound Selection is available from December 14, 2018 via Bandcamp.

Make sure to subscribe to our YouTube channel and follow us on Twitter for the final announcement next Friday. You can also join our mailing list to get in the loop of the latest Sidewinder news.
