If you're a fan of chiptune/8-bit music and you like Daft Punk, you'll go gaga over 'Da Chip,' a Daft Punk tribute done in super-geeky chiptune fashion.
If you haven't heard of this genre and don't recall my posts from last year about chiptune music, it's essentially music that's made with modified retro gaming systems like the original Nintendo or Atari. This 'Da Chip' Daft Punk tribute is a great blend of mainstream electronic music and nerdalicious chiptune.
