I started with the bassline, then got stuck with my melody and thought: "what the , I might as well use the damn lazyJones melody then..."

Because Jones wasn't lazy!
Kernkraft400 was in 1999 when they "borrowed" the melody for their electro/Dance Hit.
I mean lazyJones itself used contemporary synthpop...

...but that was an Hommage!
Not lazy! (:

Back in those days, computers ran on coal.
I'm talking about directly programming the soundchip; no DAW, no mouse, 3 voices.
But i'm not gonna take a dump on KK400, i love zombieNation of course.
It was one of the first (then new) "mp3" files that *somehow* found its way through the internet to my harddrive and into Winamp.

Mixing any electronic stuff with chiptunes is totally my jam!

So here's my hommage to both lazyJones and Kernkraft400

Any ideas or criticism you have is welcome!

Enjoy!
