On the top floor of De Hip, overlooking the most beautiful square in the Netherlands, people and machines will go head-to-head. The room will be filled with modular synthesizers, pedals, switch boxes, noise boxes and especially cables … lots of cables. Through lottery drawing, the participants will be linked together as duos and will be assigned a tempo. Then… in turns they will improvise for ten minutes.

So in a lovely lounge environment, with a bar within reach, you can enjoy on the spot synth improvisations. Bringing a variety of atmospheres and sounds. You go face to face with the wonderful instruments and the musicians that play them live in the room. Top ingredients for a great Sunday afternoon! Oh yes, the entrance is free.

Performing synthesists:
Ronald Wijnands
Ingmar Kops
Erwin Brinkman
Goos Veltman
Danny Servaes
Rikkert Achtereekte
Casper Koomen
Gregor Beyerle

Francois ‘Shakmat Modular’ (option)

[This event was shaped by comments and suggestions on an improv concept I posted on this forum late last year. Big thanks to all Lines people who contributed to this.]
