Phonte & Nicolay of Foreign Exchange talk about being independent artists and major record labels. Insightful stuff.
“They don’t need you to hit– they need something to hit.”
“They’ll own it, they’ll have the say over it, they have the masters.”
“I just don’t see the next generation just signing over their fucking life over to somebody who really could give a damn.”

Reformat the Planet, from 2 Player Productions is a documentary film about the chiptune movement, “a vibrant underground scene based around creating new, original music using old video game hardware” or what I like to call, music that is nostalgic as shit.
REFORMAT THE PLANET is a feature length documentary which delves into the movement known as chip tunes, a vibrant underground scene based around creating new, original music using old video game hardware. Familiar devices such as the Nintendo Game Boy and Nintendo Entertainment System are pushed in new directions with startling results.
Using New York as a microcosm for a larger global movement, “Reformat the Planet” maps out the genesis of the first annual Blip Festival, a four day celebration of over 30 international artists exploring the untapped potential of low-bit video game consoles. With floor-stomping rhythms and fist-waving melodies, trailblazers of the chip tune idiom descend upon Manhattan to pen a new chapter in the history of electronic music.
The trailer features music by Nullsleep (“Salvation for a Broken Heart”, “On Target”), Martin Galway (“The Neverending Story”), and Random (“Micawber’s Moan”), all composed on classic video game consoles.
The DVD can be pre-ordered today from Fangamer and will be released on August 24th, 2010. Below are some additional chiptune renditions of mainstream music featuring various urban artists (Jay-Z, Twista, T.I., Jamie Fox, Ludacris, Kanye West, etc.) and Depeche Mode. from Tugboat and Nullsleep.

A Place Behind The Moon, Big Gigantic‘s sophomore album, will be released September 1st, 2010 on 1320 Records. A Place Behind The Moon explores a unique mixture of electronic and acoustic styles, clearly defining a vision the band has conceived and mastered. This is the strongest statement to date by this young duo that effortlessly melds saxophone and syncopated drum rhythms with electronic landscapes, truly bringing a incredibly unique sound to the electronic genre. From the first note of the Saxophone mixed with drums and electronic undertones, A Place Behind The Moon demonstrates Big Gigantic’s successful leap deep into the future of electronic music by staying in touch with their musical roots while making some history of their own.
**The album will be available for free download similar to that of their last 2 releases.
**All purchased copies of the album will include higher quality mp3′s as well as a special bonus track featuring a first time studio collaboration between all the members of STS9 and Big Gigantic**
