ABOUT THE EP
Alien Breakfast (EP)— Tape Lab
Released: March 17, 2024
Runtime: 2 Songs (5:08 minutes)
PlayStationary Three Vol. 3 - Alien Breakfast is Tape Lab deep in the game-sample zone, turning Nintendo nostalgia, villain dialogue, and cassette-based beat chaos into another strange entry in the PlayStationary Series. The release leans into the feeling of old console menus, mean little character quotes, warped loops, and the specific joy of hearing something familiar get rebuilt the Tape Lab way.
For fans of Nintendo samples, Star Wolf quotes, Wario World music, video game beats, cassette culture, underground tape music, experimental electronic releases, and Tape Lab’s PlayStationary Series, Alien Breakfast is a short, weird, highly referential blast of console-era joy.
“YR-GD” was remade in 2023 and comes loaded with those mean-spirited Star Wolf quotes. What a jerk. The track carries that antagonistic video game energy into Tape Lab’s tape-driven world, where the beat feels playful, grimy, and slightly rude on purpose.
And then, yes: wait for the Wario beat, Alien Breakfast. The release taps into the cult nostalgia of Wario World Pause Menu Music, a radically dope piece of video game sound history that Tape Lab flips into something stranger, heavier, and fully alive. It is funny, specific, and exactly the kind of deep-cut gaming reference that makes the PlayStationary Series work.
