but was this even that big of a deal in the world of electronic music?

I've heard about this festival a couple of times over the years, but the line-ups I saw, never really blew my mind or anything.

I mean Sabrepulse played and that was probably the only artist I would even want to see.

I looked up some artists from this years, and to be honest I wasn't that impressed.

LOL, posting in a scene specific forum about how their biggest event is unimpressive.  Nice job.  big_smile

It's not about the sounds themselves, it's about the writing styles.

There's nothing to "get".  You enjoy chip sounds or you don't.

Seriously who is this Lazare guy anyway...?

Anyway, my favourite moment was probably being forced to crowd surf twice during 10k's set at Blip '11. Good times.

but there is more than one sound chip in the universe.

And there are people out there that combined make music with just about every (if not every) soundchip. Seek it out for yourself if you don't want suggestions. Or if you're willing to take one, do yourself a favor and just listen to littlescale.

Speaking of 10k, one of my favorite moments was the awesome hardcore style singalong pile-on that I managed to be on the top of. Fucking great times.
