“Mario Brothers - BP Oil Edition” by Zero-Lives. Someone should create a sluggish, dirty remix of Super Mario Bros.’ underwater theme to go with this. Of course, that someone shouldn’t be me, as I’d prefer a chip artist with actual musical talent tackling this task.
Anyway, sorry to ruin your holiday with thoughts of dead Cheep-Cheeps washing up on the shore and Koopa Troopas flapping their oil-covered wings in vain as they struggle to fly. Enjoy your day off with barbecues, Memorial Day sales, and tributes to fallen soldiers.

Benjamin Gaulon aka RECYCLISM™ :: The Res
The Res is using six Nintendo Entertainment System’s controllers. Those controllers [the chip they contain MC 14021 BCP] are connected to a main chip [Atmel Mega 16 programmed in Basic] which read and convert to midi, the signal from the controllers. The midi output from the Res is connected to a computer which run the Resware, a Max/Msp midi based software. Each controller is playing with a different sound bank. So the players can mix like Dj’s and play in group like a band
