Modular Mindsets

MODULAR MINDSETS En teknologisk fetisch-borg med et spindelvæv af kabler der forbinder det uforklarlige med det umulige, og producerer lyde, der veksler fra det subtilt ambiente, over tinnitusfremkaldende hipster-støjmure og bassdrum-pounding multigrooves, til en absurd suppe af blips og blops, der er mest interessant for udøveren.

Mutable Instruments: Clouds

Let’s split it up A recent addition to my Eurorack Modular system is the “Clouds” module from Mutable Instruments. Clouds is a “Graintable” synthesizer / sampler.
