Blip Fest: Day 1



Alright chipsters, Day 1 was a blipping blast. Minus Baby, Chromix, Albino Ghost Monkey- all stellar, stellar acts. Getting to the Bell House was easy and quite an adventure. Blip fest is hidden behind a swanky looking bar area... but as you snake your way through the back you start encountering people and kiosks of chip merchandise and as you enter through a set of double fire doors it hits you. 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 bits of music, wow! If you enjoy listening to this music, then you would have had a grin on your mug from one ear to the other. I just couldn't believe I was here...

...Walking through the crowd you realize it is a very modest space and the people in attendance are just as modest as well, however, ask them about the music and they lose their reserve. Blip fest is for the true and stalwart fans. In the corner lounge of the space there were a group of 3 dudes just typing away on their laptops. They are Gaijin & Robotube and they we're challenged to create 'a game in a day'. by the time I walked in they had the matrix already set up and base game play implemented all that was left was the soundtrack. Can't wait to get there tonight, bright and early...
