Hell Yes (EP)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hell Yes is a remix EP of several songs from Beck's 2005 album, Guero. The prominent feature of the EP is the persistent use of sound effects and tones generated from 8-bit or 16-bit video game systems, giving the songs a somewhat 'retro'/'chiptune' feel. The two artists who are responsible for the songs in the 4-song extended play are 8-Bit and Paza Rahm, both of whom are little-known artists. Paza Rahm, a member of a Swedish troupe of artists known as The X-Dump, creates solo works entirely based upon such video game effects as used to remix the songs to a fairly successful result. All that can be presented at this time on the matter of 8-Bit is the fact they pose as a four-member gang of android robots from modern-day United States Mexican-American ghettos. Both artists' solo work can be found for free on their respective sites.
