I Dream Of Wires
I Dream Of Wires chronicles the history, demise and resurgence of the modular synthesizer, featuring interviews with over 100 modular musicians, inventors and enthusiasts. Today, the modular synthesizer is no longer an esoteric curiosity or even a mere music instrument, it is an essential tool for radical new sounds. I Dream of Wires begins with a historical primer, exploring the development of modular synthesizers right through to the near-extinction of these instruments, brought on by the introduction of portable, digital synthesizers in the ’80s.

Torus: Live Soundtrack Stalker
Melkweg invited musician Torus to pick a movie and to create a new soundtrack. Torus chose ‘Stalker’, a film directed by Andrei Tarkovsky.
