Once an 8static mainstay (and a former member of the production team), Chipocrite is excited to return to the stage at PhilaMOCA on 12/28 following a five-year break in performing!

Chipocrite, a.k.a. Paul Weinstein, uses original Nintendo Game Boys, often accompanied by bass, guitar, drums and/or other lo-fi sequencers, to create complex audio masterpieces. His multifaceted but catchy compositions combine the game sounds of his childhood with modern music influences.

After well over a decade, Storm Blooper returns to the 8static stage at PhilaMOCA this December 28th. Harnessing nothing more than a few Gameboys, Storm Blooper (aka Chris De Pew), slaps down hard grooves while generating addicting melodies that everyone can sing along to. Throughout the years, they've had the honor of performing at numerous music festivals & conventions across the United States including Magfest, TooManyGames, Pulsewave, Philly Nerd Nite, and more! Their music has also been featured in hit web shows such as the Youtube Original Series “Retro Tech”, “Continue?”, and Cinevore's “Nerd vs. Geek”. Join them for what is bound to be an energetic celebration of love for the community, event, and venue that changed their life for the better.
