Masterclass at Dutch Modular Fest

September 6th, 2025 12:30 - 22:00

Worm Rotterdam, Boomgaardsstraat 71, 3012 BN Rotterdam, The Netherlands

As part of this year’s Dutch Modular Fest program we will present a one-hour version of our masterclass: The History of Electronic Sound.

Dutch Modular Fest is the biggest modular synth event in The Netherlands. It features live performances, talks, a makers market and DIY workshops.

About the masterclass:

We stand on the shoulders of giants: Eurorack manufacturers and performers can draw significant inspiration from the rich history of electronic sound. This masterclass is for anyone curious about the origins of electronic sound and music. It offers education and inspiration through stories, visuals, and listening sessions. You’ll be taken on a journey through the well-known and lesser-known figures, instruments, and techniques from the global history of electronic music. From 125-year-old electromechanical instruments in New York to tape manipulation techniques in London. From electronic inventors in Tokyo to sound pioneers in Eindhoven. You will both see and hear it.

The masterclass consists of three parts:

1. “Machines and Makers” highlights the inventors who shaped the most groundbreaking musical instruments.

2. “Studios and Artists” explores the pioneering studios and artists from the early days of experimental electronic music.

3. “Electronic Sound in the Netherlands” covers the emergence and development of electronic music practice in the Netherlands.
