Hainbach: crafting soundscapes from forgotten relics
Manage episode 414491588 series 2650584
Today, the Spotlight shines On Berlin-based electronic music composer and performer Hainbach.
I have come to view Hainbach as much an archeologist or audio specimen collector as he is a musician. While he makes beautiful music and soundscapes, they are often showcase pieces for the devices he works on, which include not only vintage and rare modular synthesizers but also tape machines, test equipment, and other industrial machinery. A particular highlight of his work is his YouTube channel, where Hainbach brings experimental music techniques and the history of electronic music to a wider audience, frequently displaying how he gets usable sounds from these forgotten devices. We have included a link to that in the show notes.
He is a fun and creative human, someone I am grateful to have spent some time with.
