Electronic music, particularly Eurorack modular synthesis, is my latest down-the-rabbit-hole adventure. There’s something exhilarating about sculpting sound from scratch, twisting knobs, and discovering unexpected sonic landscapes.
I took piano in high school, where I mastered the art of avoiding practice. I know three chords on the guitar, which is just enough to strum through a campfire song. But modular synthesis? The sheer unpredictability is addicting, and every patch is an experiment in controlled mayhem.
I'd like to think I'm getting better, though my definition of 'better' might be questionable. For now, I’m happy with creating sounds I can listen to for more than five minutes without questioning my life choices.
