What Happened to Chiptune is a podcast about the rise and fall (and rise?) of the chiptune scene where I (Space Town) will be interviewing former and current members of the worldwide scene about their experiences, stories, and histories with chiptune.
Today's episode features Emi Spicer, aka uglymachine. Emi is a photographer, event organizer, and producer based in NYC and has played different roles in many different chiptune spaces throughout both NYC and the world. Her photography work has been featured in numerous venues around the world and she was also an event organizer for the Pulsewave event series. We've known each other for a long time ever since I played (some could say "crashed") a birthday party for her all the way back in the early '10s and we've spoken to each other about many topics in and out of chiptune since then. We get into the triumphs and challenges of organizing Pulsewave, the concept of "waves" of chiptune, and what it looks and feels like to burn out of a music scene. We also get into some sensitive topics such as sexual harassment and abuse so if you're particularly sensitive to topics such as those, listen with caution.
