XC3N
http://xc3n.bandcamp.com/

Co-Founder of Montreal's Toy Company events and sole chiptune DJ on FM, XC3N has been very active on the chip music scene. From lowtempo dubby vibes layered with hip hop references to high energy drum and bass rhythms, he keeps a steady flow of beats headed your way with his own unique live setup.

Pocaille
http://www.pocaille.com/

Jérôme LeBel, AKA Pocaille, is a Montréal multimedia artist. Recently, he has been focusing on music production. His first album, "Divide et Impera", is buzzing with retro-fueled dancefloor-oriented house grooves and is injected with old gaming console synths.

Graviton Flux

http://letsdisinfect.bandcamp.com/

Sean Monistat is Let's Disinfect!. He's been an active musician since 1999 with interests from drum&bass to thrashy, chip-based horrorpunk. Creepy, understated vocals blend with a variety of live and chip instruments to turn your brain into a skeevy, smoky punk club full of dudes that want to punch Glenn Danzig in the face. But in a good way.

CHiKA

Wet Mango
http://www.gameboybeats.com/About.html
One half of musical duo Sonic Death Rabbit, current Los Angelino Cristina Fuentes performs solo live as Wet Mango since 2008. Her music is a mix of Freestyle, Hardcore, Hip Hop, and Drum & Bass-- effusive, experimentally electronic, and associated with the sub-genres of Chiptune and Breakcore. She uses Game Boy (Original, Color, DS), with LSDJ, Korg DS-10 to churn thick layers of dirty, broken, and heavy beats with slick melodies to create an uncategorizable amalgam of rhythmic noise.

minusbaby
http://minusbaby.com/
Richard Alexander Caraballo began his minusbaby project in 1999 to explore the diversity of a lo-fi, compositional aesthetic and has since progressed experimentally in its scope to include elements guided by those roots and a sonic language representative of his influences, namely: the art of bass and how it moves butts.

Dauragon C. Mikado
http://www.dauragon.com/
Dauragon's tunes are an exercise in low tones, high emotions and a healthy obsession with asian pop stars and old rap videos. Deep, heavy beats with compelling grooves are just the start to his performance: as his dark & somber melodies flow in you will be mesmerized by his sonic curtains. Curtains. Sonic. Curtains.

Ricky Brugal
http://rickybrugal.bandcamp.com/
Bronx, New York's Ricky Brugal (formerly Da Pantz) uses repurposed video game hardware and software to compose autobiographical tunes rooted in disclosure and disruption.

Formerly known as Invaderbacca, diydestruction is a new take on old hardware. Using 2 Nintendos, custom Android software, PD programming and an Altoids tin to mix, he creates a visual environment that goes beyond clips from old horror movies and 1UP mushrooms.

futurestack
http://futurestack.com/
futurestack is a visual artist who has a fetish for high quality dithering and old technology. By day he does vfx for tv and film, and at night he draws and messes with electronics that most people consider garbage. He's been using pretty much the same computer since 1988, and enjoys bringing good things to life.
