Blectum from Blechdom

Blectum from Blechdom is an electronic music duo, formed in 1998 by Kristin Erickson (Kevin Blechdom) and Bevin Kelley (Blevin Blectum). Erickson and Kelley met at Mills College in Oakland, California. They initially performed locally, in the San Francisco Bay Area and recorded their first EP, titled Snauses and Mallards, in March 2000, followed by their first full-length album The Messy Jesse Fiesta (that won second prize for Digital Musics at Ars Electronica in 2001[1]) later that year. Both artists retain their noms de plume when working on solo projects.

gollark: Not screens, probably wired networks, keyboards, or anything else.
gollark: Well, they can't, because they cost more, are annoying to make because microcrafting, and cannot connect to external peripherals.
gollark: Nobody will make an OC computer stand in for 20 CC ones because it defeats half the point of using CC computers as microcontrollers in the first place - complex logic and wireless control and whatnot can fit in one block.
gollark: Expensive computers I don't mind. The problem is OC's grindy microcrafting.
gollark: <@202992030685724675> Add CC back. Wanting a timesharing system (nobody will do this by the way) is not a good enough reason to remove it.
