@MichaelBerkele2 @BBCRadio3 Great episode, good to hear Terry making you laugh!

[Pterodactyl Squad @PteSquad]

If anyone has any demos or tracks for a potential release, HMU. Can't guarantee a release but always keen to help release things if they're a good fit.

リリースしたい曲とかがあればぜひれんらくしてください！

@WALLACHLEGAL Is this kind of thing a direct response to sweepstakes?

Ha OK, so this was the final EP of the band I was in. Looking back with hindsight, we didn't really know what we were doing (just like with this label).

[Pterodactyl Squad @PteSquad]

After that we played with Anamanaguchi, Henry Homesweet, Sabrepulse, Random, Fighter X etc. when they'd come through Sheffield. We'd usually throw in the odd Sonic cover, which would get a better reaction than this original stuff, of course.
Still, it was fun.

[Pterodactyl Squad @PteSquad]

I think that sums up the pure nostalgia we're often going for when it comes to making chiptune - it's more than just the music.

I still have the CD somewhere. It came with 3D glasses and a special 3D cover.

[Pterodactyl Squad @PteSquad]

When Pterodactyl Squad first started up, Ross/arcadecoma was the second person in the team. He's no longer active as an artist these days, but around 2008 we'd got to know each other via the Gamewave Podcast.

[Pterodactyl Squad @PteSquad]

I always liked the concept of the front cover, recreating that time in his childhood when he couldn't afford a Game Boy, so he'd sit in a tree with a photo of one glued onto cardboard.
