My first day at Blip Europe by glomag

My spider-sense is tingling...

My spider-sense is tingling...

Aalborg, DK 072309

Chip musicians were arriving all day on Friday like flies attracted to shit. Luckily there was a very large spider present to capture us all (see picture)

Sweden is well represented here amongst performers and attendees. Jonas from Microdisko (the best drinking partner ever,) had helped promote the event. He found us at the hostel in the early afternoon and we headed over to the venue for sound checks. Another nice surprise: Divag, who I had met years ago at a show in Paris made it up here as well with his girlfriend. Psilodump showed up during sound check as did Covox.

Holy Fuck, Boys, it’s Blip Festival Europe! (a post from Saskrotch)

its about 11 am, everyones either sleeping or wishing they were still asleep.

i can’t think of anything to write about last night that doesnt sound corny as shit. “oh man we all got raped by those laser monkeys from congo except the laser monkeys from congo were actually music”

i wanted to do a live blog / live upload kind of thing, but the venue was using one wireless connection for the visuals and for anyone involved in the fest with a laptop, all over a mobile G3 connection. i couldn’t even get one picture to upload here so i gave up.

much different crowd than the American Blip Fests. I got the feeling a lot of them just came because it was a show rather than because they were fans or had any inclination towards chip music. but despite that they all seemed to have a really good time.

here’s a story: Continue reading Holy Fuck, Boys, it’s Blip Festival Europe! (a post from Saskrotch)

Editor: A number of International chip music artists are traipsing throughout Europe, chevy chase style for a series of gigs, most notably Blip Festival Europe. TCTD will be presenting tour diaries from selected artists over the next few days, enjoy!

Got to Copenhagen a day earlier than those other losers. Snorted all the coke, made the Danish sick of chip music and generally offended the entire town in one day. I take this ‘advance man’ shit srsly. Guess I’ll push the hooker out of bed, get a shower and go meet those guys at the airport, protesting my innocence as the TV News reports on my exploits. Yawn.
