with Dot.AY (A), Cyberpunk Ibis (V), 0f.Digital (A), Aday (V),Jamatar (A/V),Space Town (A), Raquel Meyers (V), 2mg (A), Cyberpunk Ibis (V), Trash80 (A/V), CYMBA (A) KEY: A = Audio V = Visual The Evelyn, Friday 3rd March 2017 Due to a clash in gigs I was not able to make the Saturday gig but was not going to miss this as I really wanted to meet Raquel Meyers. Dot.AY was finishing up when I arrived and everyone seemed to be getting into it. Plenty of opportunity to talk to people out on the street in between sets or when it got too much inside. I got to meet Raquel Meyers. She was lovely! drat GOTO80 for keeping how nice she was a secret all these years. Should have told me sooner. No one even knew who she was before she did her VJ set but they sure did after. Also got to talk to her at the after party on Sunday and will keep in touch. Looking forward to receiving my copy of DAGON in the mail soon. I did get to talk to a few more people this year and also my new camera helped out a bunch since it performs so well I was able to take photos in almost pitch black with the kit lens. Something that was impossible last year and I wrecked my camera. Photos turned out pretty great and I went straight home to bed afterwards, did not seem like that long at all everything went so fast.

A human heart posted:Are we supposed to know who any of these artists are? They are very niche but are big overseas in the chiptunes scene. This is the ONLY time I get to see this sort of music at all in my city all year and I see a lot of music. More coverage here http://www.raquelmeyers.com/square-sounds-melbourne-2017/ This year was the best line up I had seen and I have been attending for 3 years while the festival has been running for five. There is another one in Japan that is meant to be even better. Also this year the musician and hand picked VJ were chosen by another musician so it is was mainly people seeing their friends like happens with a lot of bands in Melbourne. Some of these acts are going to go onto big things I am sure of it but not as yet it will take a while. This year they had actual ravers turning up and the bar staff started dancing. If you see bar staff dancing you know it is something good. Raquel Meyers was responsible for this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fsw-6fkMHUA Also this project http://raquelmeyers.com/lovecraftintextmode/project.html GOTO80 (ex-Melbourne resident from Sweden) did these https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Ppk-lfuNB8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QsXxnrfX-Jw Yeah, super niche but good if you remember the old Commodore 64 computer games from the 80s. Come closer child so I can hit you with my walking stick!
