I started expoloring/buying synthesizers around 1994.
It was a Crumar Bit One synthesizer and later on i added a Korg Mono/Poly and Roland JX3P.
After that things came and went, and the setup changed over and over.
At some point I realized I loved moving knobs and programming more than playing with those white and black things on my synthesizers.
Soon i bought my first modular synthesizer, an ARP 2600 and that started a never ending story.
At some point in 2007 I went to an Electro-Music.com event in Belgium called “Chateau Sonore”
And I met a guy who programmed self playing patch noodles on the Clavia G2 modular.
It fascinated me and I became really passionate about self generating patches that play stuff without any human or computer manipulation at all.
Nowadays i'm running a modular event in the Netherlands called "Noodlebar"
This is the spot to play modular synthesizers and we have artists from all over the world coming over.
I've done a lecture at the Dutch Film Festival about modular synthesis and collecting stuff.
Played at festivals like Freerotation and did stuff for Intergalactic fm.
I have releases on Doppelganger records, Strange Life Records and more...
I've gigged in various places like Amsterdam, Brussels, Berlin, Oxford, Manchester, Copenhagen, Estonia, Myanmar, and Chengdu.

New REGRESSION LP “BLINDING CONFUSION” out June 25 on NNA TAPES and now available for order.
Listen on Soundcloud.
http://www.wolfeyes.net/nateyoung/
“If you’ve been lucky enough to catch his live set this last year, you’ll no doubt already know [Young] is one of the most captivating and individual characters on the electronic scene today, so needless to say our expectations were pretty high for this latest addition to the Regression series… In all, it almost sounds like a new chapter from Young, making use of a much cleaner pallette, yet somehow still inducing those chills he’s become so good at triggering. Highly recommended.”

Modulare set for the TRIPSTREAM XXL MARATHON, Rotterdam
(Just out of) Bad Luck Festival: Machine Music & Armageddon Dancing with:
Acts:
Modern Witch (US/NL) – Dark Wave & Minimal Synth
Hungry Soul (BE) – Mesmerizing Acidic Electro
Ian Martin (NL) – Sinister Soundscapes
Noodle Bar (NL) – Mono-poly, Falafel Biels, Das Ding Modular
DJ Cosmo Knex (BE)
dj Meneer Jansen (NL)
Hello everybody. Mima is ending the year as they should: with another edition in december. Quite some acts, so let’s start with the details and facts.
MODERN WITCH is playing on this Friday the 13th. They started out as a three piece in Denver US six years ago, but has been stripped down to sole member Kristy Foom, now operating from Amsterdam. With very limited tape and CD/R releases on labels such as Disaro and Clan Destine Records, MODERN WITCH has become a true underground reference for creepy, ritualistic dance music, in the muddy but oh so fascinating waters between Dark Wave and Minimal Synth.
From the mystic gravel pit of Antwerp comes the second act, HUNGRY SOUL. He has created a mold of dizzying electronic proportions. A nightmarish virtual reality dream state filled with psychedelic electronic patterns drenched in a futuristic haze. Imagine robotic ghouls malfunctioning in the snow. Hungry Soul creates dense eerie moodscapes rich with complexity and cosmic inspiration.
The third act is a visual and musical artist from Rotterdam: IAN MARTIN. He performs using a maximum of two synths and no drum machines. It’s an enforced limitation which infuses his material with a claustrophobic minimalism and a necessarily unique rhythmic element that mimics polypharmacy intoxication.
And as a bonus, we’ve added Rotterdam based collective NOODLE BAR to the line-up for this night: Modular synth sets by local heroes: Mono-poly, Falafel Biels and Das Ding Modular.

21:00 noodle bar (small space)

Navs was introduced to modular synthesizers 10 years ago. He has been fascinated by the possibilities they offer to both gain and cede control over the creative process ever since. He is happy to have found his instrument.
As well as making music, he narrated a film about modulars called ‘I Dream of Wires’, writes a blog called ’Navs Modular Lab’ and co-curates a concert series in Berlin called ’Basic Electricity’ – the first regular club night dedicated to live performance and improvisation with modular synthesizers.

Part of being “venueless” is that you can travel around. So for this edition we even crossed that bridge and went to the south of Rotterdam. A part of Rotterdam that was known as being a bit ghetto is now quite transformed for the better. This is the place where little hip shops emerge.
At a 2 minutes walk away from metrostation Rijnhaven you can find De Player next to sexshop Helen, which has been around for ages. De Player is a polymorhpic production platform in Rotterdam, which has been putting together programs on the cutting edge of performance art, experimental music and the visual arts. It´s a place that you have to know where to find it as you would easily pass by.
For this edition we asked Geritz / Kaffa, Patrick Hartono, Richard Scott and Mono-Poly to play.
Thanks you guys at De Player for having us!

Noodlebar presenteert tijdens het 10 jarig bestaan van Route du Nord een variatie van muziek met modulaire synthesizers.
In 2012 bedacht Mono-Poly dat het tijd was voor een vaste avond gewijd aan modulaire synthesizers. Gelukkig vond hij in BAR een plek die openstond voor de wat meer experimentele kant in muziek, en dus zette hij daar samen met Falafelbiels de eerste avond neer. In 2013 maakte Noodlebar de overstap van BAR naar Roodkapje, waar het de ruimte kreeg om uit te groeien tot wat het nu is.
Juist omdat de scene zo niche is, verspreidde de naam Noodlebar zich vrij snel en waren er genoeg artiesten die maar al te graag wilden komen spelen. Buitenlandse artiesten die toevallig in de buurt waren zorgden voor de internationale allure.
Daar waar Noodlebar maandelijks een platform biedt voor artiesten die middels modulaire synthesizers musiceren, zal de organisatie van Noodlebar voor Route du Nord zelf de muziek verzorgen. Van de spannende improvisatiesets door Falafelbiels tot de meer deeptechno sets van OSC1899.
Eind vorig jaar kwam Das Ding uit met een nieuwe lp op het Rotterdamse label Electronic Emergencies. Speciaal voor Route du Nord zal hij een mix spelen van oude en nieuwe nummers.

While studying graphic design in art school, he designed all the tape covers himself. Meanwhile, he recorded his own music as Das Ding. Powerful dark electro, some tracks are quite addictive and danceable while others are more for at home listening enjoyment.
Nowadays he's an active member of Noodlebar (Modular visuals) and does great modularsynth live sets to. Our hero

Jacqueline Fuijkschot en Tamara van Suylekom zijn als Culturele Bitches diverse samenwerkingsprojecten gestart binnen de culturele sector. Tamara is haar muzikale carriere gestart als veelbelovend vioolaziaatje. Bij Jacqueline rezen de talenten al de pan uit toen ze nog in de baarmoeder zat.
Ze leerden elkaar kennen in de kroeg, hadden te diep in het glaasje gekeken en besloten een onafscheidelijk duo te worden.
Be aware of the bitches en vergeet ze niet te knuffelen

Mono-PoilY
After the extreme edition during Studio Stekker Festival we tone it down a bit. But not musically!! Actually this night maybe be more sonically extreme than last time. 3 acts this time.
Allert will team up with guitar player extraordinaire Bo Menning of Aestrid SOS to do an improvised atmospheric set that integrates Bo's guitar into the modular as much as possible.
Jos Smolders is a staple of the experimental electronics scene in the Netherlands releasing on his own label Earlabs, Staalplaat, Korm Plastics. He was also a member of the legendary THU20. More info about his performance later.
Mono-Poly is Dennis Verschoor and the founder of Noodlebar. As we stated before, his events are a big influence on Modulation as an event and we urge you to visit his monthly nights in Rotterdam. We are very proud to have him perform at Modulation and we are very curious as to what he will sound like this night.
Send mail to info@sonartraffic.nl if you want to attend, this is an invite only event. Contribution will be 5 euro's again and donations are very welcome.
Since you asked: we are saving up the little money that we make on these nights to be able to pay for trips for possible international acts to come over.
Please share this events with anybody who you might think is interested...

GRAND OPENING PARTY HACKING HABITAT
As preview of GOGBOT 2016, PLANETART organizes the Hacking Habitat openingsparty with live sets of Monodeer, Valery Vermeulen and Noodlebar. The space will be transformed into an audiovisual playground by video projections of Vjit³, beeple, Rosa Menkman.
MONOBEER
“Monodeer is the alter ego of Dutch electronic musician Mark van den Heuvel, who combines his eternal love for 8-bit, hard hitting beats and basslines into inimitable live sets. Using two classic Nintendo Gameboys as instruments, he energetically explores, challenges and breaks through the pixelated boundaries of the micromusic scene. Call it chip-bass, microtrap, 8-bit whatever you like… Monodeer’s own brand of heavy, noisy, lo-fi mastery will get you moving to the sounds of deep chip-bass and melodic hooks. Minimal means. Maximum sound.”
NOODLEBAR
Noodlebar aims to deliver a significant contribution to the development of electronic music, focusing on the use of modular synthesizers. Noodlebar pursues this objective through facilitating monthly stages for modular synthesizer artists in Rotterdam.
VALERY VERMEULEN
With his live set 2016 Vermeulen investigates various connections between the financial industry, astrophysics and the world of music composition and performance. In exploring these connections focus is set on two different approaches. In the first approach new ways are sought to transform several mathematical tools stemming from the financial industry (such as financial risk models, (high frequency) trading algorithms) into new tools for music creation.
