This is a great quote. One thing I want to point out, although it doesn't affect the overall meaning of the quote: When he says "8-bit" he's referring to 8-bit

This is a great quote. One thing I want to point out, although it doesn't affect the overall meaning of the quote: When he says "8-bit" he's referring to 8-bit audio, as in audio with 8 bits per sample. Like a CD has 16-bit audio for instance.
That might seem obvious but I've seen several people post that quote assuming he means audio made on 8-bit game consoles, including a Kotaku article[1].
