On August 7th 2010 Chip-Con International had their first event, REBOOT, a concert at Little Field, NYC featuring five rock-awesome chiptune artist and one killer VG.
The show featured DEADBEATBLAST, Smiletron, Chromix, I, Cactus, and IAYD, with live visuals by Invader Bacca.
We attended the show, and it was very cool. It was a great experience to meet some of my Chiptune Heros (please Harmonix, don’t make this into a game) and see them throw down live.
I’m consistently blown away by the raw power and crunch behind the DMG Gameboy. Other artists used tools like laptop computers, effects pads, and PSPs.
REBOOT was the first in a series of international chiptune concerts. To get an idea of what when down, check out this video courtesy of DEADBEATBLAST.
Dj CUTMAN has released ChipTuneMusic Volume II: Dubtropolis. Defined by undeniable warbles, melodic chiptunes, and driving 8-bit drums, Dubtropolis is a 54 minute aural journey. Mixing tracks from fifteen of the world’s top Chiptune artists, Dj CUTMAN crafts the soundscape of a dystopian world set in the year 20XX. Guest DJ Doctor Z throws down with his signature underground dub. As always offered as a free download from SoundCloud.com.
