The iPhone game Ant Attack, which I composed the music for and designed all the sounds and graphics, just hit the App Store yesterday. Nine types of creepy crawlies to squish, three distinctive levels in which to do so, and two separate game modes to trade high scores online in. It's a blast, and I'm really proud of the work I did for it.

Also be sure to check out the official Ant Attack OST, now available for free download in the music section!

One of Bit_Rat's tracks, Sea Grape, has been played live on 8bitFM! This means it's now available for request, as well. Head on over to their requests page under 'B' for Bit_Rat and click the "Request Now!" button next to the track. Help get the word out! :)

Also, the Channel 1 EP has been reviewed over at Good-Evil.net by Andrew Raub. Check out his brief but positive write-up here!
