Modular Artist Spotlight #1 

The first spotlight goes to Colin Benders. His approach to modular synths is purely improvised, shaped by his classical training and professional experience as an orchestra conductor. He sees the modules as different voices to orchestrate, and his music blends a variety of styles, from techno to jazz and classical.

I discovered Colin Benders during the pandemic when he was hosting live improvisational sessions, incorporating input from his online audience.

The video I’m sharing today is one of those improvised sessions, where he fully explores the specificities and beauty of modular synths. Enjoy!
