Ubiktuneis a musical collective that focuses on chiptunes and videogame sounds and has been kickin’ it since 2006. On January 1, Ubiktune’s C-jeff released his latest concept albumPreschtaleon Bandcamp, so you might want to scoot on over and give it a sampling.

Preschtaleis some trippy business, drawing influences from progressive rock and metal artists such as Pink Floyd and Dream Theater. It’s a seven-track, 40-minute chiptune journey through an alien world, switching from mellow and groovy one second to head-banging and foreboding the next. As a bonus, guitarist Danimal Cannon (Armcannon, Metroid Metal Live) makes a guest appearance.
