BRIGHT PRIMATE
Game Boy Symphony Orchestra Electro-beat Karaoke Death Metal For Your Mom
Night Animals is an album that was 3 years in the making. It is what we set out to do as BRIGHT PRIMATE, and we couldn’t be happier to be finally sharing it with you, our friends and fans and internet associates. Its been an effort of love and we believe that it represents another small step forward in the evolution of chip music from a basement hobbyists pursuit to what we all know it can become.
There are so many people that have helped us shape this album, so many people who have inspired us or listened to rough mixes late at night or assisted us with their expertise in one way or another, and we would like to acknowledge some invaluable specifics: Carl AKA Radlib AKA Oxygenstar et al. for general solidness of character and always moving forward; Misfit Chris for many 5am chat sessions and lending me his ears on more than one occasion; Smiletron David for being a constant mellow optimist in the wee hours of the night; Disasterpeace Rich for setting the bar pretty high; Dan of the J. Arthur Keenes Band for showing us all just how great a vocal chiptune album can be. Boston8Bit, Toy Company, Bitmasters, 8Static, I/O, Chipwin, REboot, PAX and Magfest peeps; you know who you are. Nerd Rock Radio and Seaking’s Seaglass too. Probably most of all though, thanks to you for listening to this record, whoever you are, because music is just two animals communicating in the night.

Control Group
Control Group is a new band comprised of three singer-musicians with
some impressive Indie cred: between them they have recorded three
BBC Peel Sessions, won Best Original Score at the Spike Video Game
Awards, sold 200,000 albums (Bastion), got NME’s Single Of The Week, won a
Rock Band® National Championship, had a Swirlies’ song named
after them, and toured with bands like Girls Against Boys, The Jon
Spencer Blues Explosion, and The Damned.
Having left their previous projects behind with the other detritus in rock music’s roiling wake,
Control Group found each other in the creative petri dish of Brooklyn.
There they set about discovering their new style, expressing the spirit of
their surroundings.

Control Group is a new rock combo made up of three lead singers: Darren Korb, Jeremy Parker, and Evan Reynolds. The band’s sound is a combination of nostalgic guitar punk, DIY indie rock, and 90s pop. Imagine early Dinosaur Jr crossed with Foo Fighters with a bit of The Smiths thrown in.
