[] MISTER LEXICON []
Mister Lexicon started creating chiptune music with LSDJ in 2013. In 2014 he played his first gig at Nintendoom 3.0. Shortly after that he organized Pixelate: a chiptune night at JK Malmejo, a local youth club in Oostmalle, Antwerp. These days he’s promoting the chiptune scene in Belgium by organising the yearly edition of Pixelate.

[] CHAOS CONTROLLERS []
Chaos Controllers (est. 2013) are a pair of fakebit posers here to spoil your local chipscene.
Robin Neefs and Sanne Werkers aim to fuse the sound of 8bit with more modern sounds, in order to create a full-blown party atmosphere with a touch of nostalgia. Using not only emulated chipsounds, but also blatantly stolen videogame samples and hi-quality drums, they explore the twilight zone between chiptune, drum n bass, core, dub, dubstep and much more!
In 2014 Chaos Controllers had the honour of seeing “Fastest Thing Alive” – a remake of an old Sonic TV-theme song – released as the opening track on “BeChipped – The Belgian Chiptune Compilation” (BitGrid Records).
2014 also saw the release of the “Fakebit Posers” EP, and in 2015 the “Kaosukontorōra” CD got released (both at Den Hoed Music Records): 14 songs showing the versatility and playfulness they stand for.

A full live show, incorporating arcadesticks, wiimotes, gamepads, midi-guitars and all sorts of madness is hitting the stages now, and getting good responses. After having passed by chiptune parties and venues such as BitGrid and Kinky Star, they got selected for Studio Brussel’s De Nieuwe Lichting in 2016!
