Anamanaguchi

Anamanaguchi is a chiptune indie rock or 'chip-punk' band from New York City that "makes loud, fast music with an NES from 1985." The band has four members: lead songwriter Peter Berkman, bassist James DeVito, guitarist Ary Warnaar and drummer Luke Silas. Akin to other chiptune artists, Anamanaguchi creates music using synthesizers. However, unlike most chiptune bands, they use video game hardware from the mid-to-late 1980s: namely an NES and a Game Boy. Berkman has stated that their music isn't just based around video game music and that much of it is inspired by "imple pop stuff, like Weezer and the Beach Boys."
