Square Sounds, the only music festival based around the "chiptune" format, will be hosting its sixth and final edition next February 23 and 24 and 24 Moons in Melbourne. And they're going out with a 8-bit bang, with artists from four different continents converging for one very special weekend, rocking tunes taking inspiration from/being composed with antiquated video game consoles. Check out last year's wrap video for a little of what you can expect, and below that cop the stacked lineup of international and local artists who'll be bringing their beat-wizardry to 24 Moons next weekend.
