Very happy to see the band back together for a new album. I talked with [[MFP29 - “Sleepovers with GameCube Games” with 8-Bit Music Theory|8-Bit Music Theory]] about the creation of *Let's Play* back in 2023. Might be a good crash course (along with [listening](https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-ZQIvQFPv4LU8jcoLiR2531AIu7mUWJx&si=kcTVWsYju6GJa-rL)) before the new release. Fun fact: The [album art](https://f4.bcbits.com/img/a1046494527_16.jpg) for *Let's Play* was key inspiration for [this shot](https://youtu.be/nFlGhgdu3sc?si=9nJR2uqkNyvjTcQe&t=243) in my video essay *[[How Astro Bot Breaks the Fourth Wall – A Video Essay|How Astro Bot Breaks the Fourth Wall]]*.
