Shrimps, PK and Wolf Calling at HST!
Local chip musicians Shrimps and Wolf Calling were joined by Rochester-based PK for a stirring evening of lo-fi electronic/chip music. Playing a mix of acoustic, electric and digital musical instruments, as well as non-musical electronics pressed into musical service like Gameboys and other video game consoles, the music strives to create a modern sound from a vocabulary that sounds trapped in a simpler, earlier time in electronica. The cool music was stitched together with the help of Batsly Adams, who provided colorful visual overlays with two recoded Sega Genesis consoles…awesome event, first of its kind, and hopefully the start of something big, cool and ongoing at HST and in Geneva!
Shrimpin’ ain’t easy.
