The Seattle Laptop Battle is back!!! On Saturday, January 28th, the LoFi Performance Gallery will host 14 of the regions hottest up and coming laptop producers inna soundclash. 3 minute rounds means lots of frantic action and audio trickery to showcase each performers talents and tracks. Judges take song development, performance, emotional impact and crowd response into consideration when deciding who gets to move on in this single elimination tournament.
Laptop Battle started back in 2003, when Kris Moon and Zach Huntting from the Fourthcity collective created the original concept of bringing people and music together. You don’t have to be an established musician, nor have high-end equipment to join; people use what means they have and create what they love. A wide variety of musical sounds are welcomed. The concept has caught on and spread from Seattle to Germany, Miami, Tokyo, New York, Italy, Philadelphia, Dallas, San Francisco, New Zealand, the UK and beyond.
