On his fifth release, "Direct Memory Access", Master Boot Record displays his incredible growth over the past few years as a composer, effortlessly weaving baroque 8-bit melodies over chugging guitars and pounding drums.

Carving his own niche out of both the chiptune and metal worlds (self-describing as cypher-metal), MBR welds his influences together masterfully with his classical leads, and accented perfectly by the tortured operatic howls of French gonzo vocalist xx X x (Igorrr), who features on half of the album's tracks to add a new dimension unheard of in MBR's works until now. These are the first tracks of MBR with vocals.

The two combine for a perfect drama which unfolds across a tour of computer hardware, bringing the technology to life in a grand electric opus that unifies crytographers, demosceners, warez aficionados, and hackers. Sit down and plug in for Direct Memory Access.
