WHFR Presents: The Music of 8bitpeoples - PART ONE
Founded in 1999, 8bitpeoples is a netlabel and artist collective focused on chiptune (or 8-bit) music. Join Robbwith2bees as he shines a spotlight on the "bleeps and bloops" that The 8bitpeoples have released over the last 26 years, spanning a massive library of 140 releases and counting!
In PART ONE of WHFR Presents: The Music of 8bitpeoples, airing June 29th from 4-7pm EDT, our focus will be on the music of 8bitpeoples' two founders: Jeremiah Johnson (aka Nullsleep) and Detroit native Mike Hanlon (aka Tangible/Mesu Kasumai). Tune in to hear 3 straight hours of original 8-bit electronic compositions, and a few covers thrown in for good measure, by these two pioneers of the chiptune scene.

In 2024, over six hundred thousand American households had their power shut off due to an inability to pay. How do we protect the most vulnerable populations from the dangers of home power shutoffs?
