Many people have very different ideas about the history of chipmusic. This is a very good link to start reading. though :

There are some interviews which you might find useful here :

Connecticut is terrible. BUT...... It's fantastical being driving distance away from NYC, BOSTON and PHILLY. Other than that, Connecticut is terrible.

But you ARE your own chip scene, you could do a festival by yourself. Also come the fuck to Japan!

Mine is pretty amazing, there are a couple of regularish chip shows :

http://www.lbpg.net/
http://www.cheapbeats.net/

A monthly musical show and tell type meet up and I guess about 25 active chippy artists. We also have a rather splendid yearly festival! Also out of interest I think the scene is made up of people in their late 20's and 30's so probably a bit older than most areas?

Im pretty sure the famicom madnes show also has a stream

Could you sync a DS lite running NL 2.5 to:

Another DS running Nanoloop 2.5?

Little-scale and I messed about with Nanoloop 2.3 on 2 DS lites which we synced up by ear and jammed on for about 25 minutes and it was solid as can be. Which prompted one of the funniest things I have heard ever.

10k "Guys, Robert Miles called, he wants his tunes back"

Just a quick thought but how about adding a little area under "search" but above "who's on line" linking to currently active chip show streams?

Could have something like

Currently streaming :
US,NY Blip Festival 2012 (this is a link to the stream)
Aus Mel Soundbytes 10 (this is a link to the stream)

This would obviously need either some users to have access to that bit of back end or some kind of mod curated sticky list of streams created by users, both of which would have possible problems but I thought it might be worth knocking the idea around?

With any luck we should have a stream of the event. I will post/tweet info on the day!
