PULSEWAVE: A New Dawn January 5, 2008

Tristan Perich // Seed A.I // Chromix
with live visuals by CHiKA
and another round of CHIPTUNE OPEN MIC!

Following the epic devastation caused by the 2nd BLIP FESTIVAL, few dared
to imagine a world where great lowbit artists could continue to execute at
such a high level of baddassery. Well wonder no more, because Pulsewave is
BACK!

On the first weekend of the year, come see Pulsewave rock THE TANK with a
night of firsts:

Known Loud Object and 1BITSICIAN Tristan Perich rocks the night with the
New York premiere of his piece "Interface" for string quartet and
4-channel 1-bit electronics. Following this, he will rock out with more
1-bit music that will make the ass shake and the ears bleed.

A newcomer to Pulsewave, SEED AI is the electronic duo of Brett Marshall
Lefferts on videogame consoles and Dan Gottesman on live drums, showing
the evolutionary link between classic lofi blips, modern experimental
composition, and rock n' roll headiness.

And completing the lineup will be another newcomer to Pulsewave. CHROMIX
is no stranger to the general music scene, with over ten years of
composing, a hit web release, and a smash web comic, all before he even
discovered chiptunes. Now he combines dance-orientated licks with
megaman2-friendly bleeps to get you ready for the rock that follows.
Definitely the best reason to show up early!

And of course you should get there even earlier for the stupendous return
of "Pulsewave Open Mic". Sign up at the door on a first come, first serve
basis, and get yourself a taste of the awesome power of live electronic
performance. You aren't limited to any one genre, but you will have a max
of three mins, so keep your rock short, sweet and to the point. And who
knows, you might get asked to play a Pulsewave show in the future!

CHiKA, a live computer visual artist working within New Yorks expanded
cinema community and VJ scene will be providing Visuals throughout the
night. She has a long history with the New York chiptune scene, lending
her talents for many events through the years. For some reason though, she
has never played a Pulsewave! Restitution will be made tonight, with a set
that will melt your eyes as surely as the squarewaves will cook your
brains.
