Description:

Like Atari Teenage Riot playing some Melvins', they said. From the violence of HARDCORE PUNK concerts to the heaviness of SLUDGE METAL, all the way to the hallucinatory state of certain dawns spent danc ing at the worst TECHNO afterparties with a pounding bass. In an opulent age where everything is consumed quickly, arottenbit blends genres using an obsolete tool, an old NINTENDO GAME BOY rescued from the trash. A children's toy, now used to awaken the n ightmares of adults. If punk taught us that you don't need to know how to play an instrument to make music, today we learn that you don't even need to own a musical instrument to make music! From 70 to 240 bpm on a heavy and furious journey, encompassing a ll the influences that a metropolis can offer during its darkest nights. arottenbit is an electronic music project born in 2008 by Alessandro 'Otto' Galli (FOH Sound Engineer for Messa, Deafheaven, Pallbearer, Truckfighters, Bongzilla, Fuoco Fatuo). Play ing solo with a 1989 NINTENDO GAME BOY or accompanied by hardcore punk drummer Guido Montanarini (PARADISE LOST, IMPLORE, THE SECRET), he soon found himself opening for some of his favorite bands like MELVINS, ATARI TEENAGE RIOT, THE BODY, MELT BANANA, AUT HOR & PUNISHER, FULL OF HELL and performing at major international festivals like ROADBURN 2022, HELLFEST 2022. He organized the largest DIY 8 - bit festival in world history "MILANO CHIPTUNE UNDERGROUND" at the famous squat MACAO in Milan (with over 2000 at tendees!), and embarked on three European and UK tours as the opening act for the Italian band MASTER BOOT RECORD (BLOOD MUSIC, METAL BLADE RECORDS). All of this without ever releasing an album, relying on the unique impact of his live performances and the word of mouth from friends and music industry professionals
