Gamepak returns on Friday 12th February with another night of music from and inspired by videogames, with live chiptune performances, bigscreen retro videogaming, 8-bit visuals and more.
A double whammy of live gameboy goodness this month, from diminutive Northern Irish lass Houston aka Chipzel, promoting her upcoming album "Disconnected", pushing an upbeat high-octane sound as she mashes and splices between two gameboys with a dj mixer. Meanwhile, fellow Nordie Skip Gibson aka SKP makes a welcome return to gamepak wielding a couple more gameboys and padding things out with plenty of Kaos!
Support comes from local beepster Donal McGuinness aka Spank the Chemical Christian, and his partner-in-8bit-crime Machine Code, playing an exclusive set of original 8-bit fusion music. Drop-kicking the night off off will be Gamepak's inimitable DJ C60-Force with his eclectic, decade-spanning selection of Commodore music and game-inspired tunes. And there'll also be a special guest set from chipcore lunatic Creator and a live improvised Nintendo DS set from Glotchbot, aka Gamepak resident DJ Zyme.
And as well as 8-bit visuals there'll be gaming galore - with such classic retro videogames as Pacman, Frogger, Arkanoid, Space Invaders, Missile Command, Galaga and Marble Madness running on the big, big screen!
From 8pm, upstairs in the Mezz! €8/€10 - get there before 11/with a flyer discount entry and as always mention Gamepak on the door!! Drinks promos on the night for your intoxicatory pleasures!
