(A-Bit of Daft Punk was posted to YouTube on May 22, 2013)
When I started making these videos I had a gut feeling that A-Bit of Daft Punk would be the one to blow up. I was so ready to go when Random Access Memories came out. I got hold of the album a week before its official release and just PILLAGED it! I listened to it on repeat and when I wasn’t listening, I was arranging or producing. That week I also got sick, which is why you can see me coughing at the end of the full video, but nothing would have stopped me from putting that video out as quickly as possible. I really thought this would be the video to take my channel to another level.
And the thing is… it absolutely was. Even now ten years later it’s still the most views I’ve had in a single day. And after this video dropped I had a bunch of new people watching. The icing on the cake was when I was told that Daft Punk themselves had seen the video.
The reason that I say I “pillaged” the album is because my listening experience of RAM was a weird one. It’s not usually the case that when we listen to music, we’re trying to use it for something. I’m proud of this video but the sacrifice I made was being able to enjoy RAM as an album. After I spent that week listening to it on repeat and analysing it, I didn’t listen to RAM again for nearly a decade. Hearing it back now, with fresh ears, I feel like I’m listening to it for the first time and I’m glad.
Ps. My favourite tracks are: GLBTM, Giorgio, Motherboard and Fragments of Time.

It's been 10 years! For the 80th and final ep of A-Bit of 8-Bit I will be reremixing some of my favourite tunes from the last decade. Mario with Memes? Undertale with Rick and Morty? The Beatles with Steven Universe? It's going to be LARGE. In the lead-up, I’m making these 30-second Chip Clip shorts to highlight and reflect on my favourite 8-bit moments.
