Maybe some announcements or email blasts regarding pulsewave news would be nice.

Could ya'll please keep your fans in the loop?

There was never a mad rush to curate a pulsewave ever really, but I think people people did it cause they wanted to play some-day themselves. Not it syndrome eventually takes everyone out of the picture. Another difficulty was the every changing scenery at the tank and the sometime unpredictable state of the backline (which is why some of the bigger chip acts in nyc stopped playing pulsewave). The biggest problem right now besides the lack of capable and interested curators is probably the lack of suitable venues for weekend all ages chip nights. Your favorite venue probably hates chiptune.

Fun Fact: It almost died in the Fall of 2007 before the huge influx of kids after the 2nd blip gave it a big jolt that lasted another 2 years or so. I also think a big factor was a bunch of regular fans graduated into 21+ clubs and moved from Manhattan to Brooklyn, and less of the universal draws would commit to propping up shows where they didn't get a show experience they felt they deserve.

And each month is curated by a different person, so after a while I'm guessing people lost interest in putting all the work into getting one together, especially cause (at least it seemed) that less and less people were showing up, in favor of I/O.

Start a rival event to Pulsewave, and walk right up to it in the school cafeteria while wearing your leather jacket and shades (even though that's against dress code!!) and then take a big bite out of its brownie (the only good thing from the school cafeteria!!)

After that, it'll be so pissed that it will break its vow to its mom never to fight and it will come back in full force just to show you what's up.

And then you will have two awesome monthly shows!



This plan is flawless.

Pulsewave is tied into the Tank, so once the Tank home sitchu is more clear things should get back on track for the fall. That is if NYC even needs an event like Pulsewave anymore.

So if you really miss pulsewave, maybe ask about putting together a pulsewave of your own?

For real, though, it'd be cool to know what happened. We haven't had a monthly show in Austin in a couple years. hmm
