Haven't really thought of that. The kids are getting to my brain...! :-D

I've basically just been thinking in terms of the sound of C64, Amiga and 
arcade games from back in the day, reimplemented it over what is essentially 
an emulation of a few dozen SID chips with per-voice MCUs, and added whatever 
other influences that seemed to fit.

You might say I'm exploring the connections between the 8-bit era and modern 
styles that most of the "kids" are too young to actually see. ;-)
