Language & teacher(s) Dutch/English

You're all about synths, samplers and drum computers? You have homemade electronic/experimental instruments or a real modular system? You would like to try and exchange with others here? Welcome to our free soundlab sessions!

In these sessions, we work with all types of electronic instruments, analogue or digital. Is your instrument your DAW? Just as well! Bring your own sound makers or instruments! WISPER provides a PA installation. The approach of each meeting is determined by the instruments and ideas put on the table at the start by participants and teacher.

We aim for an all-may-be vibe among musical allies where you can experiment with soundscapes, ambient tracks, noise but also techno, house, EDM, hip-hop beats ... We look for sounds and rhythmic or melodic motifs and let them float through the space.

Please note: this is not a course, but more like a jam with electronic instruments! Active participation and experimentation are key, and Reindert is mostly there to provide some general guidance en provide technical support where possible and needed. Everyone is welcome, you don't need any previous knowledge. The soundlab sessions have an open atmosphere that allows us to learn from each other and from the music.

Practical

You can attend one, two or all the sessions - each session is a separate meeting so it's no problem at all if you can only attend one of them.

Registration is not required, but greatly appreciated! Any doubts or questions? Send an email to reindert@wisper.be

Producer? You can bring your laptop with DAW + headphones. Your audio interface, midi controller or keyboard and your favourite gear are all welcome too!

Level of experience

Level X: for anyone who feels like jamming together (electronically), with or without experience. Did you buy a new electronic instrument that you haven't mastered yet? Fantastic, bring it and we'll figure it out together!
