This is nice! Hardly any misconceptions! And I like Joey's remark to the effect of "chip music came from the internet" (I take all blame for the dubious paraphrase).

A picture from DataPop 3.0 was on the front page of the Austin newspaper on the 17th. I think the article was about concerts being funded by Kickstarter type donations though and even the caption only described it as an "electronic music festival." Still, it was pretty awesome being on the front page. I'll take a picture of it and post it here later on today.

that's a really good one.

Here at West Philadelphia's Studio 34, crowds of 50 to 150 gather to test their skills at an open mike or watch local and international chiptunes stars. The music, infused with the beep-heavy aesthetic of video game soundtracks, often resembles European dance or electronica but can be spun into sounds from country to smooth jazz or punk.

awesome paragraph.
