December 14, 2009: 1101010101010100 8-bit BLIP FESTIVAL 2009 Warmup / Workout 101000101001001
WFMU @ Blip Festival 2k9
TONIGHT: Patric Catani, Peter Swimm, Je Deviens DJ En Trois Jour, and C-Men exploit the deepest, brightest sights and sounds from the edges of the 8-bit live on Sound and Safe.
WFMU will be webcasting this year's edition of the amazing BLIP FESTIVAL in its entirety!
Three days of pixelated madness LIVE from The Bell House in Brooklyn: Trash-bin symphonies and ray-chasing pixel pushers rule at the music and arts festival on December 17th, 18th, and 19th.
Entering its fourth year of celebrating the best and brightest from the realm of chipmusic and its related disciplines, the festival showcases the use of the former heavyweights of computing such as the Commodore 64 and Amiga, the Atari ST and 2600, and the Nintendo Entertainment System and Game Boy to create arresting music and visual art.
Stay tuned to wfmu.org/blip and blipfestival.org for more information and broadcast schedule coming very soon!
NOTE: WFMU's Broadcasts from the Blip Festival will stream from a separate virtual location and will not pre-empt any normal FM or web broadcasts (but DO stay tuned the week of December 14th for Blip-themed programming that week on WFMU proper).
The Blip Festival is presented by Manhattan arts organization The Tank, in partnership with NYC artist collective 8bitpeoples.

Hey Trent, that DHR World Tour show at the Metro was in 1997, I was there too.

i keep hearing ppl say they were at one of those shows + it changed their life, or they played at a dorm at my college, etc. i just had the records, and a DHR newsletter that somehow made its way to my local record shop. still hoping somehow that a second Shizuo album happens....

Paul-
Good luck with that, last thing I hear about Hammer is that 7" he put out himself and that he burnt out on acid and is playing in a blues band (circa 2001).
I'm content trying to complete my Catani collection, I'm missing most of the MIDIWAR cassettes & the Irish Coffee 12" and like 3 other records. One day though....

@paul I'm sad that we never got to hear Carl's follow up to Black Ark.

@disassembler, I think he's coming on again, but if not I have been recording this for my collection and can shoot you an mp3.

@Tim Yes! That would be great! ^_^ Thank you!!

@Disassembler, did you here the Cark & Frederic Stadter album A Tribute To Manzini (as "Firewire"), it was very good and very different. If I recall, it's the last Carl stuff recorded.

i've heard Ramones cover band, country band, rockabilly band, and now blues band, and pretty much all circa 2000-2001... dude was waaaaay ahead of his time tho

@Tim Yeah, I heard that one! Great stuff! The vocals on the opening track are also part of ATR's track "Waves of Disaster".

@Paul, I actually met him at that Metro show in 1997, he was up in the balcony after his set. I ran over to him and asked him to sign my tour shirt. He was WAAASSSTTTEEEDDD. He signed my shirt and was swilling whisky telling me that people just didn't understand what was going on. I told him : "thank you for coming out at least".

@paul I agree completely. Although, I never really got into Squarepusher or Aphex Twin too much. I've only heard a fraction of their releases. I'm more of an Autechre guy.

@disassembler. I have your mp3 ready. I'm "Eft" on Discogs.

Awesome show! I don't follow this scene closely but I'm always happy to have some 8bit madness come my way. Some of this stuff is unbelievably beautiful... and twisted! Great fun. I wish the Blip festival were archived.
