In a natural progression from solo Game Boy music mixers like 8BitPeoples, a polish sextet called the “Gameboyzz Orchestra Project” is touring Europe, using six Game Boys (both new and old, it would seem) to play live, electronic music. Although I think it’s safe to presume that much of the work is pre-sequenced, they do make a point to note that much of their performance is improvised, as well as peppered with samples and sounds from favorite videogames past. Their next performance is at Fuzja Dzwieku in Wroclaw, Poland on the 16th of November, with shows in Paris and Amsterdam to follow.
