"So I've been writing music in my basement for a few years now. Fight club was a very influential movie in my high school days [daze] and I loved the song at the end. Since then, I've heard it thousands of times and decided to make a chip-tune cover of it for your listening pleasure."

[@CertMediocre]

You met me at a very strange time in my life.

[@itouse7545]

You met me at a very strange pixel in my life.

[@arexandle]

yeah. 13 years later still the best version out there. glad its still there

[@ChristopherVossArt]

It's weird to me that this ever got any kind of attention in the first place, but I am happy people enjoy it and keep coming back.

[@sdbadik]

​@@ChristopherVossArt you for sure deserve all the attention, this cover is so satisfying

[@andrewgoldringmusic]

This just showed up on my KZbin algorithm from 10 years ago. Will never forget that “show” we played in my parents basement. Hope you’re well Chris.

[@youtubevanced1508]

Yall sound like my old boy and I just mixing up awesome beats and even occasionally rapping for each other over each other's beats and mixes. It ain't over til you stop.

[@FrancisGo.]

A long time ago, I came across your guys' cover because I was looking for 8 but versions of all my favorite songs. Thank you for that synchronicity connection. ❤

[@SomniaCE]

11 years later and this rendition in specific still affects me. Can't thank you enough for this

[@ChristopherVossArt]

Glad to hear that! I've played it live at a handful of local shows. It becomes one giant sing-along. Its now streaming on Spotify and Apple music if you want to share this with any friends. 🖤

[@peelypeel]

@@ChristopherVossArt Is it still on Spotify? _This version_ of this song just re-entered my head and I needed to hear it. Couldn't find it on Spotify, but KZbin knew the one I wanted immediately. Maybe it's because I'm in the UK? Love the music.

[@moosemoss2645]

You should cover more pixies, under the moniker 'The Pixels'.

[@VALUST17]

That’s Genius!

[@kapibarra791]

This is so good you cant even see how much views it has

[@JambaB]

It`s just so weird that even 8-bit things are thing of the past but still this tracks could`t sound more alive

[@ChristopherVossArt]

I infused it with super soul power.

[@Zellig]

"No views" interesting

[@simoncarlile5190]

+Zellig That's not even zero views. This video is missing the concept of views

[@mtgln-backroom]

fuck me

[@DanOhCaptainDaniel]

this person doesn't care about self-validation... what the???

[@ChristopherVossArt]

Haha, it's a glitch. I broke their coding.

[@hailey6645]

Christopher Voss uncle Chris how?

[@valiter]

Thanks now it will play in my head

[@solokom]

"Where Is My Mind?" is one of my all time favourite songs and as an old NES veteran I can only say: This remix is sugar to my ears! thanks!

[@jamiecowan6683]

From Tyler Durden to Elliot Alderson... we sure have come a long way. Or have we?

[@19HajimeSaitou91]

Did you know - it PERFECTLY fits for an alarm ringtone

[@Reiji_Kurose]

I love this cover, that one part that's like an alarm clock hits just right

[@stentor9640]

I love the upbeat, it's like an 8-bit ska version.

[@kpbtm]

When I first heard this a year or two ago I almost cried. I don't know why, but it triggered some sort of lost sense of youthful nostalgia in me. I actually prefer your version to the original now. Thank you.

[@ChristopherVossArt]

I'm glad that it could reach you. Hope you are doing well.

[@WaterJake]

oh man, I can see some seriously mighty rap verses flowing over samples of this

[@ChristopherVossArt]

Look up Sage Francis and where is my mind. He spits over this. Kind of cool!

[@DwessieMMD]

This song, man. The original is almost a theme song for me, and this takes it up a level cause I love 8-bit stuff!

[@brettrzy]

i couldn't imagin the process behind this. such a beautiful remix

[@ChristopherVossArt]

thanks man. Living that Munko life.

[@draconov_alt]

@@ChristopherVossArt well

[@ChristopherVossArt]

Five or so hours total. Most of that time was spent revising and getting it to sound just right.

[@steve5123456789]

Imagine this soundtrack back in the day on a video game.

[@TheWastedMetal]

PERFECT! NO WORDS!

[@savagenectar3634]

David Choe if your out there I want my paint brush back .....Not a joke : /

[@savagenectar3634]

BTW it's a yellow handle with a fan brush end very old and very used.

[@savagenectar3634]

Hey Chris ? I made a video to David Choe please check it out : ) Everyone else ? Please go away .

[@everything777]

I would like to know if you received your brush back from David?

[@savagenectar3634]

@@everything777 First off my apologizes for not replied back sooner : ) , And second sadly no but understand life goes on and as for my small favor to David over a $5 yellow fan ( My dead art buddy gave me on my birthday R.I.P. SiCkK0)......I had to move on : (... After I had C-19 my life changed forevermore still not a 100% and that was an month ago . Moreover, David honestly likely didn't know / care about a artist with sub-part Watercolour paintings like me , plus i'm NOT a fan of him SiCkK0 was and would always quote him..." Try Harda" i still don't understand that joke? lol Also i just wanted to burn the brush with David's autograph on it to honor SiCkK0 ( he was a pyro freak I know he would wanted that because SiCkK0 was soooo fuckin' PuNk ) And spread the brush's ashes over the California Coast where he lived homeless selling his art on the side of the road like Mr Choe did . So in closing i'm very sad for my friend but what can i do to honor him ? . TY 4 UR Comment : )

[@everything777]

@@savagenectar3634 well I am sad to hear your brush went unreturned. maybe you could install some of sikkos artwork "guerrilla style" along that coast road.

[@ChristopherVossArt]

your mom sounds like an alarm clock

[@otakuyourfriend4113]

I hate where we are compared to 2000 this is so nostalgic

[@PeekingIntellect]

Pretty sure this song just got played on my local university radio station. I heard it while driving home and had to look you up. I’ve listened to some of your newer stuff too and I love it! I agree with some of the 10 year old comments on here, keep up the good work!

[@supermec131]

"Oh, it was gorgeousness and gorgeousity made flesh."

[@wutgoddamit]

Nice. About a month ago out of the middle of nowhere I had to hear this song for some strange reason.

[@ticklemejoviemo]

in all seriousness, this is PERFECT.

[@dannycrystal1234]

im bipolar and i constantly find myself asking where is my mind awesome trip thanks

[@ExcessiveSpareTime]

Reminds me of my middle school years, before I got my first Walkman, riding in my parents' car late at night, They Might Be Giants albums playing on the speaker system...

[@quantumphysicsislove]

MY MIND HAS BEEN BLOWN. Wow, the best thing.

[@haileyvoss4862]

my uncle is the coolest uncle- good job chrisTOPHER!

[@ChristopherVossArt]

Hailey V thanks!

[@wutangalex]

I totally love this, sounds like a ZX spectrum on acid and that's a compliment since I have very fond memories of my old computer. Yes even though it weighed more than my fridge, happy memories.

[@mrKozmoz]

It's crazy that this song was originally written in '88, and even as a tracker based cover, it still sounds modern

[@opinionsfromfil1840]

Here 2022 still FRESH!

[@mbe102]

This needs a million likes, and a bafillion favourites. This is awesome dude. WAY past awesome. I'd pay 99 cents for this over 99% of the shit on iTunes :D. Keep it up man, seriously, this is good! Subbed and favourited!

[@mbe102]

What the heck... this comment... from 10 years ago, just got a like. WOW.

[@igori1988]

I love this song! Amazing!

[@DJ_NEUROTOXIN]

Just watched your tutorial video on how to use Schism as a whole. You've ignited a passion in me for music that I haven't felt since I was much younger. Thank you. This cover's a banger too, by the way. Your music is amazing!!

[@ChristopherVossArt]

Let me know if you have any questions getting started with Schism Tracker. I try to keep up on the comments section of that video. And thank you!

[@koji6301]

I really like this, it's pretty fantastic. It kinda sounds like it belongs in organ trail director's cut, which makes it really good! 10/10

Fantastic!

[@vicccyleamboss]

This is so unbelievably solid stuff, Christopher. It's the only cover of this song which doesn't make me wanna punch the remix artist in the face! 12/10

[@VerySpecialED]

I genuinely believe, after years of searching, that this may be the most amazing thing I've seen on youtube. It's like seeing music via matrix vision.

[@squigglenutsfosheegie1994]

It's always been a strange time in my life.

[@paulmck1980]

Thanks for this awesome mix, keep up the great work :-)

[@ghostrec777]

This is awesome!

This is awesome

[@simoncarlile5190]

Years later and this is still the only video on KZbin that I've ever seen without a view counter. I hope KZbin never fixes it; it's pretty cool.

[@ChristopherVossArt]

yeah, I manually removed the count back when that was still an option, then they updated the platform and it just stuck that way.

[@davidkane117]

imagine what you could do with a DAW program

[@rawrrr172]

This is amazing- as one of my mum's all time favourite songs, it's been passed on to be one of my favourites since I was really young, and having it in the 8-bit which was the sound of MY childhood makes it absolutely perfect. So much kudos to you, good job! Can't stop listening :3
