    2010

    Lowtoy was created in 2010 with the idea of consolidating the 8 Bit, Circuit Bending and DIY scene in our country in the first place, but also promoting  Latin-American artists and labels but never closing doors to the rest of the world. The label was born thanks to the collaboration of people from different collectives like MicroBCN or Distortled Box and several artists from the low-fi audio-visual scene like Ralp, Snail, Meneo, subATAK or Lautstärke among others.

    We are open to all genres, style and experimental collaborations related to 8 Bit technologies and all vintage flavors around music, design and video. In our site we promote not only studio releases, but live sets and video creations, as well as a Lab section with diverse material. All in English and Spanish!

    At the moment the first three releases are available, and a few more from Meneo, Snail and Degon are in the way.

    “don’t worry about it”. Priceless!

  • Like A Phoenix – IAYD

    In his sophomore 8bitpeoples release, IAYD (I Am Your Destruction) returns from the depths of the cosmos, armed with an arsenal of arresting arias. Burning white hot and furious, his concussive calls-to-arms serve as much to inspire as to enrage. Composed of three parts bête noire, two parts rancor, Like A Phoenix destroys and disrupts. Prepare yourself for the impact of this anthemic anthology, spanning the years 2008-2010.
