BOSTON CHIP MUSIC CREW SHOW!

Br1ght Pr1mate
Boston, MA
Former Boston rock scene alums Lydia Marsala and James Therrien (Fugitive Kind), combine forces for a new take on live electronic music. Using a unique blend of live vocals, acoustic instruments, gameboys and vintage electronics, Br1ght Pr1mate explores, bends and completely ignores the boundaries of Chiptune, Pop, Art, Electro, Rock, Jazz and Soul for a futuristic fusion that would be right at home on your favorite space ship. Br1ght Pr1mate's music has been featured on FOX News National Morning Show "Fox & Friends", and has received praise from The Boston Globe and most recently, The Boston Phoenix.

Active Knowledge
Boston, MA
"It's not so much the preservation of youth, as the celebration of it," says Chris Mahoney, better known in creative circles as Active Knowledge. Firing notes through an original Nintendo Entertainment System, the Active Knowledge mixes vintage video game sounds with synchronized glitchy, spastic visuals. The idea is unadulterated fun, with a focus on the unadult. Active Knowledge’s debut album “Pyramid Neon” is available to download for free on his site.

Disasterpeace
Boston, MA
Travel through deep forbidden forests and the far reaches of space! Disasterpeace is a curious form of chipmusic that blends progressive rock, minimalist, jazz, and dance tendencies with an aesthetic sensibility that pays homage to the sounds of the past yet that is largely synthesized from the ground up... He’s kind of a big deal, too:
