Doctor Octoroc

Doctor Octoroc

I've been creating music since I was six years old, remixing VG tunes since I was eight, and making chip-tunes since 2008. I'm a chip-noob, but not new to composition, arrangement, or the obsession with video game music - especially from the 8-bit era.

  • KimberleyB : Just played this on my wee radio show up in B.C. Show is called "Aural Improbabilities" and I play covers. Figured this was pretty darn appropriate. Plus, I loved it!! Cheers, Kimberley (www.kootenaycoopradio.com)

  • Doctor Octoroc : @thetonestarr - Haha, thanks. I saw that it was essentially a retweet on Felica's behalf, but until I saw your comment it didn't occur to me that Maurissa Tancharoen was the one who originally tweeted it. Did I mention I have an affinity to gorgeous Asian girls?

  • thetonestarr : Oh, and if they haven't yet... won't take 'em long. So, hi guys. =D And DocOctoroc, no pressure or anything. ;D

  • thetonestarr : What's even better is that Felicia Day's tweet was a retweet of Maurissa Tancharoen's. Which means - by now - most likely the majority of the Doctor Horrible/Mutant Enemy people have likely been on this page and listened to your work. That's so freaking cool.

  • Doctor Octoroc : @logindekinai - it's a tribute to something that myself and many others are very fond of. Also, as unbiasedfanboy pointed out, I got tweeted by Felicia Day...top that.

  • Doctor Octoroc : @MasterDC - Haha, Dr. H fanboy, huh? I've already finished all of the tracks but I don't want to post them all before I finish the animation. I'll probably just post one more on here within the next week.

  • Doctor Octoroc : @DJCactus - Thanks for encouraging words. I'm working on the sprites as we speak - the tracks are all finished. @genoboost - I'm just waiting on the album art for ATM right now and it'll be out before you know it. That's part of the reason I started doing Dr. Horrible tracks - it's a nice side project while I wait.
