A laid-back Sunday afternoon for electronic music makers and curious listeners. We start with an expert talk, then open the floor for a collaborative live jam where people can plug in their own hardware and “noodle” together—drum machines, synths, samplers, modular, grooveboxes… anything that makes sound.

For this edition, our guest speakers are Sthru and Raaf Modular — artists deeply rooted in hardware-based electronic music and modular synthesis.

Estroe has been active in music since the very beginning and is now fully immersed in the world of modular synthesis.
Raaf is building a vibrant community around modular systems through his channel.

About the artists:
When Raaf and Estroe take the stage together, a musical world unfolds that is constantly in motion. Both artists operate at the intersection of electronics, improvisation, and texture — each with their own signature, yet always in dialogue.
Raaf weaves rich melodies and sparkling arpeggios from his modular system. His sound is layered, organic, and infused with a cinematic sensitivity. He builds worlds that are both dreamy and rhythmically charged, with a strong focus on harmonic development.
Estroe, known for her subtle and atmospheric approach to electronic music, brings warmth, depth, and a keen ear for nuance. In her live performances, her love for improvisation shines through: an intuitive play with sound, texture, and timing, always responding to the moment.
Together, they create a set where melody, timbre, and rhythm challenge and amplify one another. Beats are present — layered, glowing, and sometimes danceable — but never dominant. Their music invites both listening and movement, drifting and grounding.
Each performance is a carefully crafted whole, with room for surprise. Spherical, rhythmic, melodic — and always with attention to detail.
