Language & teacher(s) Dutch/English

Are you all about synths, samplers and drum computers? Do you have homemade electronic/experimental instruments or a real modular system?

Would you like to experiment and exchange with others?

Then our free sound lab is for you! In these sessions, we work with all kinds of electronic instruments, analogue or digital. Is your instrument your DAW? Great too!

The approach of each meeting is determined by the instruments and ideas that are put on the table by the participants at the start.

We aim for an all-may-come vibe among musical allies where you can experiment with soundscapes, ambient tracks, noise, but also techno, house, EDM or Hip Hop beats...

We look for sounds and rhythmic or melodic motifs in the moment, and make them resonate in space.


Please note: this is not a course, but rather a jam with electronic instruments. Active participation and experimentation are paramount, teacher Reindert is mainly there to steer everything in the right direction, and provide technical support where necessary and possible. Everyone is welcome, and prior knowledge is not required! The soundlabs have an open atmosphere where we just learn from each other and the music.

Producers, also take a look at our brand new format CoLab.

Practical

The sound lab sessions are separate events. You are welcome when you can, and do not need to notify if you cannot come.

Registration is not compulsory, but very much appreciated.
Any doubts or questions? Send an email to reindert@wisper.be

Bring your own sound carrier / instrument. WISPER will provide a PA system on which we will amplify everyone.
Producer and feel like jamming? 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.
