Blip On: Peter Swimm
Descended from the Serpent Kings of prehistory, Peter Swimm is the faceless power behind T.C.T.D. (True Chip Till Death), the brains behind the creation of New York City’s monthly Pulsewave concert series, and the brawn behind a unique take on the classic chip music sound that combines surf, new wave, metal, and punk.
Blip: I hear you heard rumors of some near legendary axe slinger gracing your stage, care to elaborate?
Yea I am psyched to announced I will be joined by SHRIMPS frontwoman Brady Leo for a portion of my set. His ax work is all over my upcoming EP SON OF SRAM.
Blip: Which part of your fiendishly complex set up are you most worried about exploding/dying/melting?
I really owe a big thanks to Tim Lamb for developing the MIDI OUT features of LSDJ. Without them my set would be infinitely more difficult to pull off, and I can focus on my true love, reverse heckling.
Blip: Of all the people playing this year, who’s gear would you most like to steal?
4mat’s brain.
Blip: Please finish this sentence in your own words
“Gorgeous people should throw their moistened unmentionables when Peter Swimm graces the stage because………..”
It will make it much easier to calibrate my lazer guided defense mechanisms.
Blip: Are there any made up and utterly spurious facts you have learned about the NY chip elite through your work at TCTD that you would like to share with the world?
They fall under four categories:
1. Sacred Blood Rites.
2. Effusive demonstration of casual brutality.
3. Furries
4. Mild yet omnipresent speech impediments.
So in short, no comment.
