Blip Festival 2009, Part 1

Wednesday, January 13th, 2010 – running time 10:54

There is a magical place out there, friends.

A place where Game Boys frolic alongside guitars, and NES decks and drum kits gambol about in perfect, kickass harmony. It's called Blip Festival, and it is the center of the chiptune universe. We have been there, we have seen it, we have returned alive, and we are ready to report on the wonders we have seen.

Blip Festival, Part 1

We talk to Albino Ghost Monkey, Little-Scale, Je Deviens DJ en Trois Jours, Fighter X, and Failotron about how they got started in chiptunes and what tools they use to make their music and check out performances by Hally and Albino Ghost Monkey.
