Mochipet and Friends
“In songs like “Sharp Drest” from this year’s Microphonepet (Daly City), however, Mochipet is indisputably one in intention with these artists, producing tracks that bang so hard they cause involuntary dancing, and bass blurps that seem to filter through your sternum before reaching your eardrums. Pretty tuff stuff for a guy named after squishy stuff, especially since he so often performs in an infantilizing purple dinosaur suit. ” – BY BRANDON BUSSOLINI

Mochipet was named #8 Best Underground Electronic Act by UK’s Clash Magazine. “Savaged edits over schiphreaded beats sizzled Mochipet’s great album into our charts. Mass collaborations with the likes of Jahcoozi, RQM, and a host of Berlin axis talent populated this conic bullet.”

The Casio MT-46 circuit bent for Quell, features:

– 4-way glitch joystick with alien filters and harmonies
– 3 body contacts for bitcrushed BROWN NOTES, special for the Reverend Moquell
There were times I thought this whole thing was wrecked. Up until the last minute, half of the keys weren’t even working. At one point I was getting no audio at all — fearing that I had crossed something hot and blown out a chip. I spent more time fixing things I’d snapped, unsoldered and burnt than I did adding new features! I couldn’t resist adding the blinky opto-theremin thing either. The idea is to reflect the blinking *LAZERBEAM* back onto the photocell to make it freak out more.
SO MIKE — the deal is, you have to post some freakout acid jams for us now. Maybe you can finally record the soundtrack to that new Unicorn-Cardiologist-Outer-Space-Western cartoon drama you’ve been working so hard on!
I was recently given the gift of a photo tour at the San Diego Wild Life Reserve where I got to feed the Giraffes. My favorite animal, a dream come true.
