Optimus Chad is back, and even dirtier than ever. Pxl-Bot proudly bring you your dose of the brutal to aid your festivities.
Starting with a healthy portion of sampling and noise, all hell is shortly unleashed within the second track, ‘Feedback Warrior’, a rolling exercise in tension/release with some truly crushing sounds holding the dirt together. ‘Optimus Chad’ has really come immeasurably far since his hard hitting debut; he now hits twice as hard, twice as gritty whilst dousing subtle groove and even more aggression over his work, meanwhile experimenting left right and through the centre’s face with his melodies and drum work.
The legendary Nordloef clashes with Sarofer Zertaga once again, with Nordloefs two Game Boys seemingly having the upper hand.
Though Sarofer Zertaga has a secret weapon, a SID chip imported from USA.
Come and dance to the clashing sounds of Game Boys and Commodore 64.
Famfest is a litle event about 8bit, circuit bending and experimental music held in Sevilla (Spain). In this edition, like in the past, there are two main activities: diy electronics workshops and live acts. The organizers aim is to create a local chip / noise / electronic music scene, based in the chiptune and lo-fi aesthetics. The goal is to show different and independent kinds of music, which aren’t usually played in the local venues: chiptune, ambient, noise, etc. and to create a social network where people meet and know each other to start making music and diy projects.
Familiar is born between Barcelona and Sevilla in 2009, willing to connect individuals interested in new musics and trying to go beyond the internet relationships, to make things more social and ‘real’.
