Modulisme, So. 6.2., 20-22h

Session 017 und 018 mit Eric Cheslak aka Rodent und Shiro Fujioka

Rodent is sculpting soundscapes which defy categorization, in a way Post-Industrial, IDMish, melodic vs. Dark cinematic, but above all those labelling facilities his music is subtle, entertaining-moving, very organic.
Eric Cheslak has been playing a significant part in the modular explosion we are experiencing now, working for Make Noise, a brand designing some of the most innovative modules, and also co-founding with Bana Haffar Modular On the Spot in Los Angeles: “It started off as a small gathering of fellow synthesists on the LA river. We brought our systems, a generator, and a PA. The idea was to create a third space (not the studio and not a music venue) in which to gather, perform for one another, and exchange ideas. The event has now grown to many cities across the US through local initiatives.”


Shiro Fujioka was born and raised in Los Angeles, where he’s been experimenting and recording music since he was 12. Raised happa native (African+Japanese). Projects: Conductors of the Omnipresence (Shiro Fujioka & Moon Reflecting) @conductorsoftheom; VoltageCtrlR (Shiro Fujioka’s experimental analog modular synthesizer project) @voltagectrlr; Moon Reflecting Beets @moonreflectingbeets; Moon Reflecting Vocals @moonreflecting
