Once a year Seattle hosts the best laptop performers in the country for the Laptop Battle Championships. This annual event is a unique chance to experience underground hero's representing their cities music live, in a soundclash for the trophy. Expect twisted sound design, wicked programming, and sound murder in a night of intense performances, including showcase sets by 2006 Champion Vytear, Vancouvers Vincent Parker, and two time Seattle Champ Kris Moon.
Each 3 minute set is judged by a group of battle vets from across the country, including the 2004 Champion Spark, Philly badman Dev 79, Atlanta's 2006 champ Threv, Laptop Deathmatch's Mwanza and resident judge Rian Pierson. Judges will base their decision by scoring the song development, emotional impact, performance and crowd response of each track. Contestants are only allowed their laptop, soundcard and controller.
