BLIP FESTIVAL: REFORMAT THE PLANET.

BLIP FESTIVAL: REFORMAT THE PLANET trailer from 2 Player Productions on Vimeo.


Trailer for BLIP FESTIVAL: REFORMAT THE PLANET, debuting at the South by Southwest Film Festival in March of 2008.

BLIP FESTIVAL: REFORMAT THE PLANET is a feature length documentary which delves into the movement known as chiptunes, a vibrant underground scene based around creating new, original music using old video game hardware. Familiar devices such as the Nintendo Game Boy and Nintendo Entertainment System are pushed in new directions with startling results.
Using New York as a microcosm for a larger global movement, "...Reformat the Planet" maps out the genesis of the first annual Blip Festival, a four day celebration of over 30 international artists exploring the untapped potential of low-bit video game consoles. With floor-stomping rhythms and fist-waving melodies, trailblazers of the chiptune idiom descend upon Manhattan to pen a new chapter in the history of electronic music.

The SXSW screening will be supplemented by a showcase performance of chip musicians from around the world, featuring:

Nullsleep, Bit Shifter, Anamanaguchi, Mark DeNardo, Tristan Perich, Treewave, Receptors, Bud Melvin, and Aonami, with Voltage Controlled handling visuals.

The trailer features music by Nullsleep ("Salvation for a Broken Heart", "On Target"), Martin Galway ("The Neverending Story"), and Random ("Micawber's Moan"), all composed on classic video game consoles.

Ubuntu - I Exist Because Of You

Dolk at CansFestival London.
more dolk.



Just some tracks that I enjoy these days.

Henrik Schwarz & Amampondo - I exist because of you (dixon's stripped down version)
Henrik promotes linux? :P The philosophy is really interesting.

Johnny d - Orbitalife
I really like the vocals.

Joris Voorn - The Deep (Jimpster remix)
Joris is one my favourite artists and Jimpster's remix is a killer.

Ilario Alicante - Vacaciones En Chile
This is for djs who want to add a latin flavour in their sets.

Rachael Starr - To Forever (moonbeamremix)
This track is cheesy, I know but moonbeam kinda saves it. Doctors say some cheese now and then isn't harmfull ;)

Jesus shaves and Quiet Village rox

Sixten's Jesus shaves.(I'm really into stencils lately)

I was listening to Resident Advisor - Quiet Village podcast . It's not a typical dance mix and definitely not what I expected from Matt "Radio Slave" Edwards and that's why I like it. I guess nobody can live on techno 24/7. They play Rhythm&Sound and Led Zeppelin, what else do you want? Thanx to RA and Quiet Village for this mix. link

Jan Driver - Kardamoon

(Dont mean to disrespect the track, it is good productionwise but when I hear it kick in I cant help it.I guess it sounds eastern and kinda exotic to most people.I'm glad that greek mainstream dj's haven't discovered it yet.)
