Sat, Oct 3
Anamanaguchi, Covet, sueter7
The sound of a Nintendo chip is not nostalgia for everybody. For a certain kind of person it is the sound of being eight years old, alone in a room where nothing bad was happening, and hearing it played loud by four people on a stage does something complicated to the chest.
Anamanaguchi run their music through a hacked NES. Not an emulator and not a plugin — the actual hardware, the physical chip, wired into a live band with guitar and drums stacked on top. They wrote the score for the Scott Pilgrim video game, which is how most people found them, and they have spent every year since proving the chiptune was never a novelty. Covet co-headline, and Yvette Young's fretboard-tapping instrumentals drag in a completely different crowd — math rock kids who came to study technique and end up dancing anyway.
Those two audiences almost never share a floor. That is the reason to go.
Downtown at 13th and Market, doors at six on Saturday the third. All ages.
