“Find your family.”
Back in 2010, I wrote “Everything is Broken”, a holiday song for the displaced and it was the first recorded Digital Crafts Night song. Every year since, my friends and family like to circulate this song and play it live at holiday get togethers. And now we’re doing it as a Mission Arcade ONLINE sing-along!
In case you’re not one of the 9 people who know what Mission Arcade ONLINE is, it’s an extension of Mission Arcade, the secret sing-along gamer dance party I would hold in various locations (including the San Francisco Asian Art Museum), and I post one “seed video” (here is the “seed video” for “Everything is Broken”) and folx play along with it however they like, filming themselves with whatever camera they have handy.
So, here is the finished product of everyone’s camera phones and whatever instruments they chose to play, the Mission Arcade version of “Everything is Broken” by Digital Crafts Night.
DIGITAL CRAFTS NIGHT is a band comprised of Owen Otto, Jef Cunningham and me, and you can find our music on:
DCN on Apple Music
DCN on Spotify
DCN on Bandcamp
DCN on physical media!

Happy holidays, everyone! Please share if you know anyone that you think would enjoy the sentiment of this song. And leave me a comment below!
Find your family. ❤️
