8-bit Blasters

While perusing the awthum “Happenings” section, I stumbled into a name I didn’t know:

Hexcrusher.

Turns out he’s kind of a badass with a SID chip and old 8-bit sounds, and lucky for you, he’s playing with Gary B (Gayle Gold) on Saturday the 16th at End of An Ear Records (2209 S. 1st Street). The whole concept of re-appropriating old technology for new music isn’t ground-breaking or anything, but man, Hexcrusher sure knows how to squeeze out some fucking good sounds.

Other Texas chippies, if you’re curious:
Yatagarasu (also playing with Hexcrusher and Gary B. I think)
Treewave
…way more than I probably know. Post some. I’m craving this shit.
