For those who love their remixes on the go, you now have the perfect app to compliment your busy lifestyles.

Released yesterday through the itunes store, ’8 Bit Radio’ will stream all your favourite remixes from the OCRemix archives, straight to your Apple device. The interface is extremelly simplistic and easy to navigate, and you can pick from a number of different playlists depending on which games you enjoy. The app features sixteen different streaming channels featuring game such as Final Fantasy, Mega Man, Donkey Kong and most importantly Sonic.

The App is recommended for use with your local wifi, but can be used in conjunction with your 3G or 4G network. Big thanks goes to the amazing people over at OCRemix and the hard workers over at Ninja Pandas.

Best of all the app is FREE and can be viewed over at the Apple site here.

So, TSS has had a recent lack of content to do with remixes and the great efforts of the community to highlight one of the strongest components of the sonic games to date – the music. Whether you’re into the new generation or the classic style, there is no arguing that everyone loves a good remix. I’ve spent the last week or so digging through my ever-expanding remix collection to share with you some of the greats from around the world.

I’ll start my gallery viewing with this:

For those who don’t know, Erock is known on youtube for his amazing ability to transform television and video game music in works of pure, unadulterated metal. Don’t confuse his trademark wink at the start of his video as a sign he’ll hold back on you. Prepare your ears for bliss.

But let’s be honest, Metal isn’t everyone’s deal, and while I may think you’re a little bit nuts, I’ll respect your opinion and throw some funk your way. That’s right. Funk. The latest addition to the OverClocked Remix archives is HydroFunk, a trendy remix of Sonic 3’s iconic water stage. With a past resume including “Above The Sky” and “Snowboardin’ Sonic” WillRock doesn’t disappoint.

TRIVIA TIME: WillRock’s track HydroFunk has been up on his TinDeck page for longer than a year.

I’ll be diving back down into my archive in the following weeks to showcase more works of art for those keen on filling up their iPods.
