MusicTalks, Modular Battles & more
The program on ADE Sound Lab's Thursday, Friday and Saturday includes ADE MusicTalks, with speakers such as Jeff Mills (US), Joris Voorn (NL) and Machinedrum (US) talking about the ‘evolution of their sound’, the worldwide premiere of a live performance by Detroit Swindle (NL) & Nick Verstand (NL). There will also be Modular Battles with Richard Devine (US) X Thijs de Vlieger (NL), Sjamsoedin (NL) X Colin Benders (NL), an analog synth expo, visual art installations, workshops and master classes from Ableton by the people behind artists like Kölsch (DK) and Dubfire (US), as well as the active presence of leading brands such as Moog and Roland.
Focus on Modular Synthesizers
The multi-day event features a focus on modular synthesizers, which are currently enjoying a new wave of popularity. During the ADE Sound Lab sound pioneers will show what they are working on and will help others to further develop their talent. The program also includes several specialized synth-building workshops by Moog and Ginko Synthese, and a modular synth market with lots of opportunities to try things out and experiment.
ADE Sound Lab is organized by ADE, in cooperation with Creative Industries Fund NL, the Dutch fund that offers sound pioneers and innovators an opportunity to demonstrate what they are working on, as well as helping them to develop their talents further in a 'hot house' environment.
