@jammmon Good ear for spotting the same chords. Neither Paul McCartney nor the Beach Boys invented them, though. Besides, I'm the guy who "ripped off" an entire album; why are you complaining to me?
@jammmon musicians take ideas from other songs all the time, but even so who really cares as long as it sounds awesome (and in pink floyd's case trippy aswell). just enjoy the music and stop making comparisons
@jammmon you tryin to say that pink floyd, one of the most creative and brilliant bands ever to exist ripped off the greatest ablum in the world from the beach boys and paul mccartney? their music isnt even on the same level as dsotm. so they use the same chords big deal its briliant music
@jammmon you cant copyright chord progressions, in theory since there are only so many notes there are also only so many chords so eventually they are going to get used again, and in jazz music its cool to play other peoples stuff I bet if paul or the beach boys realized that as you say "pink floyd ripped off their stuff" they wouldnt look at it that way at all only lowly youtuber fan boy would
If you are bored (or just high), please check out my cover version of this song; I tried to give the video a psychedelic twist. I hope my alien friends in outer space will enjoy it.
@fearhasaglare Yes, it was made with an NES sound emulator via Famitracker. Maybe you get a Commodore vibe from the use of arpeggios, which was a lot more common in European games (esp. C64) at the time, but it was well within the capabilities of the NES. There is a FAQ on the website, if you check the video description.
@Sakanakao That's it exactly. The sine and triangle channels are unmistakable as NES. Also the counterpoint present in the original piece really comes out with the 8-bit version, I never noticed it that much before. Great job.
Sure you can make voices with 8 bits... The problem is that we are working with a few channels that can only output a single sine wave or triangle wave at a time. We could use the PCM channel like some NES games e.g., Blades of Steel.
@fearhasaglare Someone sent me a version with synthesized voices dubbed in. If you're interested, there's a link posted on the website. (See video description.)
@BrechPro In the original song, there is a man saying "there is no dark side of the moon really. Asl a matter of fact it is all dar" I love that quote... it completes the album for me. It's not in this :/
I have this album on vinyl (anniversary with 3 posters! Oh and i have matching shoes and pajamas and boxers and like evyerything imagniable) and this is pretty freaking sweet! Thank you!
I was so entranced by this whole thing, it took me until 9:30 to realize this was not the original Dark Side of the Moon. The whole time, I was thinking: "THIS is what they mean when they say you hear something new every time you hear this album. It sounds very electronic this time around."
I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this. I sincerely hope you make more Floyd 8-Bits soon! Animals, Wish You Were Here or The Wall would be a great next step.
Fun stuff... I can imagine a retro 8-Bit video game using these as the soundtrack. Now I'm waiting for "The Wall" and I'd like to hear "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" too!
If you are going to have an obsession, might as well go all out. This is pretty damn amazing. After listening to the whole album, all I can say is, the lunatic is in your head. Cheers.
Your brilliance, sir, is unsurpassed. My two favorite things in this world are 8-bit Nintendo and Pink Floyd. This is like the voice of God to me. Thank you.
after listen to all 6 of moon8 wow i never such technology exsited and now sure how hard it is to use but this is some intense creativity. thanks for taking time out of your life to compile such a master piece. really awsome stuff. THANK YOU
"There is no dark side of the moon really. as a matter of fact, it's all dark."
Completely mindblowing to hear the legendary Dark Side Of The Moon in 8-Bit, you did a fantastic job Sakanakao, Roger, Nick, Rick (God rest his soul) & David would be proud of this dedication.
This is epic beyond words, haha. Any Colour You Like is easily my favorite song on the entire album, and it just translates beautifully to this style.

"music" like this makes me sick. It takes absolutely no skill to sit at your computer and bleep bloop buttons, maybe try learnign a real instrument? Techno sucks!!!!! Rock Music Forever!!!!
@jaywastaken2 are you a troll or a flame? of course everyone here loves rock and loves Pink Floyd, but this nerd arrangment is something sublime, and it's not so easy to do it!
@jaywastaken2 First of all, it does take skill to match up the sounds to match as closely as possible to what the real sounds are. Ever heard of Mario Paint? If not, go find it and and try make a simple lullaby in it and see how long it takes you.
The creator of this probably spent many hours perfecting every song, matching up as closely as possible and editing and fixing it up. I doubt he'd take kindly to you saying it takes no skill to do this.
This is so awesome.

Paul in 1971: listen to minute 1:10 in the song "Uncle Albert "

and Floyd ripped off from the album Pet Sounds too..
the chords progressions of The Dark side of the moon are based on the chorus of Beach Boy's "Don't Talk"
