The Hypertext Transfer Protocol Orchestra

The Hypertext Transfer Protocol Orchestra is conducted by PeacHy (Sic), a drum and bass producer from the UK with an unhealthy obsession with video games. One day while procrastinating about writing a retro video game review he stumbled over the age old question, “what if old video game music was made by an orchestra?” So with his complicated music creation software which can put 16 oscillations on a single Bass note he sampled different orchestra sections and turned them into the re-envisioned retro video game themes that lay before you and the Hypertext Transfer Protocol Orchestra was born. The Hypertext Transfer Protocol Orchestra is the amalgamation of 8-bit and 16-bit video game music fused with the rich symphonic power of an electronic orchestra.

The debut release of the httpO is entitled “Classical Music for Consoles”. Check back weekly for new tracks.
