"Vintage" music happening tonight (23rd Nov) in Wellington

Postby tezza on Fri Nov 23, 2012 11:52 am

Here is a note of an event a new member "puppies" sent me. It might be of interest to some members,

Sorry for the late post. Life's been manic!

Ever seen a gAtari?

The Australian who invented the gAtari is playing a one-off NZ show at Puppies in Wellington this Friday.

cTrix has been noodling around with electronic music since forever. He moved to sequencing on an Amiga during the 90's and produced live techno on a series of music workstations in the late 90's. A wave of unstable software plagued "modern" computers in the 2000's so he decided to ditch it all for the computers he grew up with and take his production skills to the simplest computers he could find.

He has created music for the Gameboy, Lynx, MSX, C64, Amiga and Atari 2600 rocking Blip festivals in both US & Japan and touring Europe, NZ and Mexico during 2012. Expect techno and melodic breaks from an original Gameboy, dance anthems from an Amiga, the bass shaking sounds of the gAtari (Atari 2600 guitar) and above all, an awesome amount of fun!
