Mochipet “Chicxulub” Grassroots Hat Contest Winner Picked!

Posted by August 18, 2011No comments

To celebrate the release of Mochipet’s new record “Chicxulub” which came out on STS9’s 1320 Records 8/16, he chose to give one lucky fan a chance to win a  Mochipet Grassroots hat before they go on sale to the public. All the fan had to do was help spread the word about “Chicxulub” and repost the preview track available for download from soundcloud on Facebook, Twitter, Blogs, and anywhere else on the net. After scouring the internet to see who had been helping a winner was picked at random. Big congratulations to Malarie Raquel and thanks to everyone else who helped spread the word on Mochipet’s “Chicxulub”!

The wait is over! ‘Chicxulub’ is now available for purchase-GET IT NOW!

Mochipet’s latest release on 1320 Records  ‘Chicxulub’,  is the soundtrack for an animated novel in which the Dinosaurs make their way through the impact of the comet believed to have destroyed them. The album starts off with a highly compressed glitch-hop bass number ‘Dinosaur Anthems’ signaling the dark that is arriving along to where ‘Yoshi’s Dinosaur Egg Hunt’ guides you through Fraggle Rawk-style landscapes in search of the young that are left to live on. The Dinosaurs eventually leave the planet, taking off in their ‘Pterodactyl Spaceship’ to new undiscovered lands. But they do not make it out easily; there are a number of alien life forms that have invaded in ‘The Battle of Dinotropolis’ (Featuring Ben Samples). With everything destroyed all that is left are ‘Fossils’ and our prehistoric creatures are left to find ‘A Home Away From Home.’ So ‘Ghost Ride The Ark’ to Outer Space we go! Whether our Dino friends make it to their new homes is unsure as ‘I Really Don’t Think We Are Ok ACE.’ The Saga is To Be Continued…

Tracklisting:
01) Dinosaur Anthems
02) Yoshi’s Dinosaur Egg Hunt
03) Pterodactyl Spaceship
04) The Battle of Dinotropolis (Featuring Ben Samples)

You’ll Soon Know- Mochipet I Really Don’t Think We Are Okay Ace (Exclusive)

Posted by August 11, 2011No comments

So we have an exclusive for you today from the ever exciting Mochipet! If you didn’t already know he has a new album dropping on 1320 on the 16th of August and we have an exclusive track taken from it that you can download today. (Seriously, check out the roster on 1320 if you don’t already know, Eliot Lipp, Prefuse 73, Great Mundane, Alex B, Emancipator, shit is popping!)

The new album, titled Chicxulub, is the soundtrack to an animated novel in which the Dinosaurs make their way through the impact of the comet believed to have destroyed them. Pretty crazy huh? We’ll I got a chance to listen through whilst at work this afternoon and trust me, there are some real heaters on this! I guess I’d like to put some of the tracks into a realm somewhere between Pretty Lights, Emancipator and The Glitch Mob? But it also has a very unique twist of it’s own, I just feel if you’re into those guys this may be right up your street.

XLR8R -Mochipet “Yoshi’s Dinosaur Egg Hunt”

Posted by August 8, 2011No comments

The purple-dinosaur-suit-wearing producer known as Mochipet is a week away from releasing his latest LP, Chicxulub (artwork above), for the 1320 label. Here, we have the record’s first single, an energetic slice of epic beat work that matches videogame-style arpeggiators (check the title) along with an over-powering breakbeat and a healthy dose of low-end rumble. Considering “Yoshi’s Dinosaur Egg Hunt” is only the second track of the album, which is said to serve as “the soundtrack for an animated novel in which the dinosaurs make their way through the impact of the comet believed to have destroyed them,” it’s safe to say that Chicxulub is going to be one propulsive collection of boom-bappery when it drops August 16.

Posted by July 12, 2011No comments

Born in Taiwan R.O.C. to Rocket Scientist father and Kindergarten Teacher mother, David Wang (a.k.a. Mochipet) has been tinkering with electronics since he was a child. However, not until he added music to the equation, did something special begin to take shape. Having grown up listening to metal guitar, avant-garde jazz, and mainstream hip-hop, David’s eclectic taste can now be seen in his music – ever changing, and always evolving.
