Hello all, here’s another update RE Modular Meets Leeds 2018 (all info HERE) and just wanted to share some previous performances from Phil “BlueWolfSe7en” who is performing at this years event. Over the past few years we’ve seen him go all Elektron, to hybrid Elektron/Cirklon/Modular to all modular performances. Having embraced 5U with a Hordijk system since his last performance I’m keen to see how his music and approach has developed. Head to the thread about the event below for all information and check out the videos of his previous performances.
So here’s everything you need to know about Modular Meets Leeds which is the event I hold with help from a few friends in Leeds (who’d have thought) mid August each year.
Modular Meets Leeds is an independent community driven event for modular (and general) synths, drum machines and all things electronic music making. It’s a community get together that’s grown into a key event in the “synth calendar” with a mix of both users, artists and performers showcasing their equipment for people to try out as well as manufacturers and designers in attendance exhibiting their equipment. The event is inclusive of everyone from any background, experience is not necessary to come along and try out some synths and check out what’s going. The whole event is FREE!
Please show interest in the event and let us know if you’d like to attend with gear to exhibit at the Facebook event or MW Forum. You can follow Modular Meets on Twitter or Facebook
