London-based partygoers recovering from this past weekend’s #SEGASaturday [2] event have just a few days to prepare for another one. Joypad [3] and VICE Gaming [4] have announced Super Warehouse [5], a “collaborative music meets indie and retro gaming” party happening at London’s Hoxton Arches on Saturday, December 5th.
EDM and Chiptune accompaniment will be provided by FAIK [6], Sega Bodega [7], Shirobon [8] and Slugabed [9] with live, interactive visuals courtesy of VJ Yourself [10]. Adding to the audio/visual mayhem of the night will be Robin Baumgarten’s uniquely physical “1D dungeon crawler”, Line Wobbler [11]. There’ll be plenty of indie games on hand thanks to publisher Devolver Digital who will also be bringing two unreleased games to play.
For retro fans the organizers have crafted a novel, interactive way to play a huge assortment of 8, 16, and 32-bit games from Nintendo, Sega and Sony; by live request. Attendees can tweet the name of a game they’d like to play using the #superwarehouse hashtag and the Joypad staff will load it up and call it out as gameplay rotates throughout the night.
Advanced tickets are available now through Eventbrite [5] for £11.45 and like #SEGASaturday, let us know how it was if you’re in the area and attend! For those of us not in the same town, continent or hemisphere we can, at least, grab a free half-hour mix [12] by FAIK made exclusively for Super Warehouse. It is a wonderfully appropriate mash up of beats, drops and video game samples.
