I play music that is old and that is new. Some of it is digital while some is analog. It is from many different countries; sometimes it is loud and at other times it is quiet.

Did anyone else go see Makigami Koichi from Hikashu @ The Stone last week? Pretty sure Mayuko's show was my introduction to him/them.

Hello everyone, thank you for tuning into to this show which could possbly cause your brain cells to decrease into 8-bit!

I did, rbxbx!!! Was pretty great!

I proofread a book that contained 600 QR codes. Had to proofread those too, by comparing them versus their original art. By the end my entire world looked as blocky as Donkey Kong.

@Mayuko yeah! I super enjoyed myself. Was actually my first time at The Stone as well, which is something I've been meaning to do since I moved to NYC like 4 years ago, haha.

Feels like it's pretty common for us to fall into Donkey-Kongish situation in our lives, james...

Hello JtotheK!

the set I saw was only him and Ikue Mori, rbxbx - he was not only good but also hilarious! Would have been nice if I could see other sets, too.

And Koichi is coming back to NYC next year in May again!

Really enjoying this program, great idea for a show. Trying to think back to all the 8-bit themes I enjoyed on the NES. The cutscene music for Ninja Gaiden comes to mind.
Avatar 5:17pm
rbxbx:

Excellent. Will try to catch him again – I could imagine the set w/ just him and Ikue Mori being great in its own right as well. The 5 piece I saw got a bit harmonically dense at times.

Alright, going to have to catch the rest of this awesome show on the archives - heading out to see Beyonce in a big stadium. Most likely in a downpour. How did I get roped into that?

That was fun, even though I never was much into video games: I was so bad at these!
I'm glad you played Omodaka, I first heard them on Gary's premium, and I love everything I heard from them so far.
This might be a bit far fetched, but I think you might like Nox Factio. One of my fave bands, though I don't know whether they are still active. They would use video games as sound sources live, heavily processed of course, for the rhythm in there. There's part of a show on the FMA (I was there, but I don't remember whether they used games then. The start of the second side makes me think they did): freemusicarchive.org...
Avatar 1:21am
Mayuko:

Thank you fred. Just downloaded Nox Factio, I figured I love it in the first second. I wasn't too good at video games either, I don't know how I was able to have such patience to play them then!
