About Me


This profile was edited with OLD-FASHIONED HTML, you lazy fucks.
6Bit is a collaborative work between a handful of musicians from the same area, South Louisiana, USA, headed by Nails of 6Bit. The music is often dark, raw, and ugly, using elements from goth, punk, and industrial (such as the cases of “The Brightness”, “Bloody Tongue”, and others), with peace and beauty as an occasional exception (“Hymn to My Orchid”, “Angels Are Machines”, etc). There are no full-time band members (except Nails of 6Bit), and presently no ‘live act’. At this point in time, 6Bit is a studio-only project. 6Bit also works as a production team for certain artists, no matter the musical genre, so long as it gets 6Bit’s attention (such as rapper Tat-2 and singer/songwriter Meghan Rene). 6Bit’s history is trivial. The only thing that matters is what’s happening right now.
6Bit is featured on the bonus disc of this band's album, 'Thinker', covering their classic "In Hell...". Check these motherfuckers out. They're fucking awesome.

Gimp , Meghan Rene , Ghost , and Josh Plummer are all official contributors to the music and creative process (playing parts, writing parts, loaning Nails some equipment, etc), and without them none of this would be possible.

That’s what it is

Uploaded the Tat-2 tracks. Just to remind everyone, 6Bit is now a bit of a budding production team, and we are not 'going rap'. We're just open-minded producers, and Tat is just fucking awesome. Also,...

This profile needs dusting...

Greetings. Nails here. Sorry for the lack of updates. I've been without internet for a long time, but that's over now. However, 6Bit has been super active for the past half year, and I'm here to tell ...

Bah

I don't usually go for this shit, but I've decided to change the Comments privacy setting to 'approve'. There are just too many people on 6Bit's friends list that have been hacked, so we're getting bo...

6Bit's new album, 'First Period', is still under construction. Taking time for writing and such. Also, everyone has new day jobs, so we're not clear on eachother's schedules. In the meantime, 6Bit is ...

Oy!

6Bit's been jamming lately, more than recording. Drums are all treated properly. Still a long row to hoe.

More later

TV sucks, and people are worthless. Love is something we do to ourselves, and we do it because we hate ourselves. However, 6Bit has good news for all two of you: things are coming along. We're still w...

Blah

Another tiny update from Nails. 6Bit has about 13 tracks in the works, maybe more. It's been hard to keep track of the tracks, since we're going back and forth so much, but roughly 13 is a good enough...

And then...

Nails here with a question: is your refrigerator running? If so, does it properly chill all of your groceries? Shit, I fucked that one up. Anyway, on to something less interesting. Recording began the...

Your 'First Period' is coming soon

Here is me, Nails. As of a few hours ago, 6Bit has begun work on recording the new material. We already have some ideas recorded, and attitudes are totally optimistic. Josh (often known as Starbuck, b...
