Today’s episode features none other than Jeremiah Johnson, aka Nullsleep. Nullsleep was an integral part of the NYC chiptune scene from its inception, as he was one of the first active performing chiptune musicians in the area. He would go on to found 8bitpeoples and later would create and organize the Blip Festival event series, which would later expand to Tokyo and Melbourne. If you have any interest in chiptune today, Nullsleep probably had some kind of hand in it, and I’m so excited to present this conversation about the history and future of chiptune from someone who’s been such an integral part of the scene.
