Fuck Buttons’ Andrew Hung to Release Rave Cave EP, Made on a Nintendo Game Boy

Fuck Buttons‘ Andrew Hung is putting out his first solo EP. The Rave Cave EP was written and performed entirely on a Nintendo Game Boy. Yes, the almighty, iconic, obsolete Game Boy. The track “The Plane”; is available for free download here, or stream it below. The full EP will be self-released by Hung on March 23. For updates, follow Hung on Soundcloud.

Here’s what Hung had to say about the EP:

In a world with an ever-increasing emphasis on packaging and delivery with seemingly infinite resources and techniques to carry these things out, there is a danger of us losing our vision in a fog of presentation.

Whilst touring, I needed an outlet for writing music; it drives me nuts to not have access to a means to making things. I’ve tried making music on laptops; carrying tiny peripherals around the globe, but this still wasn’t a portable solution. I’ve tried tablets but having my fat fingers play keyboard lines on a touchscreen isn’t very fun. In the end, it was the decrepit obsolete games console, the Game Boy, that opened up possibility for me again. Limiting but liberating, the emphasis is on fun.

In May, Hung’s Fuck Buttons bandmate Benjamin John Power is putting out a solo album called Dumb Flesh under his Blanck Mass moniker.
