Bubblegum Octopus returns to Chicago! Here's how the night is gonna break down:

$10 cover

9pm Show Starts -- Performers in this order:

(1) CCDM:

CCDM is a Chicago based artist, who creates experimental electronic music and live visuals through the use of both antiquated and modern techniques.

(2) Watabou:

Watabou is the amalgamation of extensive electronic programming, punishing physical externalization, subconscious realization, and constructive manipulation of myself and my art.

(3) Bubblegum Octopus:

Bubblegum Octopus is an unusual electronic music project from New Jersey that has been actively pushing boundaries since 2005. Under the maxim of "Conflicting ideas working together" the project shows equal love to extreme metal and saccharine j-pop. Glitchy sounds and explosively fast drums coalesce with cutesy synthpop and chiptune/VGM, sometimes venturing into over-the-top, eurobeat informed rave, and at other times becoming lost in dreamy, SNES RPG-like introspection.

Bubblegum O. has toured all over the US and to Japan, and has been a fiercely DIY effort since day one.

Often billed as "spazzpop", to circumnavigate discussion of genres, Bubblegum Octopus is forever poised to lovingly subvert expectations.

(4) environmental sound collapse:

environmental sound collapse comes from chicago with songs full of sinister vibes and general spookiness. Expect to hear songs inspired by gruesome murders, relationships gone wrong, society in decay. Fuck happy.
