Back 2 the Bit is a genre blurring project that reimagines the sound world of classic video games through a modern cinematic lens merging retro game aesthetics with contemporary production and live performance.

Back 2 the Bit draws inspiration from the iconic sonic language of 8-bit and 16-bit era soundtracks while expanding them into fully realized arrangements that feel equally at home on a concert stage as they do inside a game world.

Created by soloist Anthony Rodriguez known for his performances with Naruto: The Symphonic Experience and The Witcher in Concert the project explores what happens when nostalgic game music sensibilities meet the power and nuance of live instrumental storytelling.

The result is a sound that lives somewhere between:

  • vintage console nostalgia

  • film score atmosphere

  • and modern live performance energy

Back 2 the Bit isn’t simply a throwback, it’s a re-imagining of the emotional depth, melodic clarity, and immediacy that defined an entire generation of interactive music, brought to life through a distinctly contemporary voice.
