2 Player Productions premiered their new film "The Blip Festival: Reformat The Planet" at the SxSW Film Festival this month. I was on hand for the screening and to help promote the film with impromptu live sets in some fun places (lobby of the Four Seasons Hotel!)


IFC was there and pulled us in for an interview.


We are at 5:26. Utilize control bar action!

View the trailer for Reformat The Planet.

BLIP FESTIVAL: REFORMAT THE PLANET is a feature length documentary which delves into the movement known as chiptunes, a vibrant underground scene based around creating new, original music using old video game hardware. Familiar devices such as the Nintendo Game Boy and Nintendo Entertainment System are pushed in new directions with startling results.
Using New York as a microcosm for a larger global movement, "...Reformat the Planet" maps out the genesis of the first annual Blip Festival, a four day celebration of over 30 international artists exploring the untapped potential of low-bit video game consoles. With floor-stomping rhythms and fist-waving melodies, trailblazers of the chiptune idiom descend upon Manhattan to pen a new chapter in the history of electronic music.
