Blip Festival 2007 -- Official schedule released
Analog Pidgin
\\ 11.24.2007
22 comments

For anyone still wondering what Blip Festival is like,  this is the trailer for Blip Festival 2006: The Videos that I couldn't get my hands on before. Care of those 8-bit documentarians at 2PlayerProductions, who will also be filming this year, anything you may miss will be archived in gorgeous hi-def like so.

The excitement is building, and this year yours truly is blessed to have numerous Destructoid cohorts joining the party: Tiff, Topher, Colette, Phist, and Mr. Destructoid himself are gonna go 8-bit. If you're going to be there this coming week, make sure to come over and say 'Hello,' accost us, ask for our (er, Niero's) autographs, get us to help you change a flat tire, or whatever else you may need from the group -- we're multi-talented, some of us even multi-layered.

Take note after the jump, because the official schedule is finalized and has been released. 

Blip Festival 2007 

November 29 -- December 2, 2007

presented by The Tank and 8bitpeoples

at Eyebeam Atelier | 540 W. 21st Street, New York, NY

Amazing stuff.
If only we had festivals that lasted more than one day here in Peru.
Creamfields only lasted 12 hours.

If all the music there is anywhere near as good as that trailer's, should be awesome. I don't know what it is about 8 bit music, but it just sounds fantastic to me. Too bad the atlantic ocean stands between me an attending this.
