    16. Droidsong – Drone Resolved (Nocturne)

    I had the idea to put this compilation together showcasing all of the talent located in Los Angeles, the Inland Empire, San Diego and all the surrounding areas of Southern California that make up the slowly growing SoCal Chip Scene. Some are well known heavy hitters who have played Blip Fest and various international chip shows, and some have never officially released tracks outside of this compilation. We try to put together as many shows as possible and as regularly as possible to showcase this talent, but this compilation is the best way to show outsiders that WE ARE HERE. 2011 is the year of Southern California Chipmusic.
