ONIBABA

A multi-instrumentalist and intermedia artist, Pat McMaster moved to Montréal from Prince Edward Island in 2012 in part to further his research of the ondes Martenot, a rare, early electronic music instrument with a devoted community in the city. His preoccupation with the role interface plays in shaping electronic music naturally lead him to the designs of Don Buchla and the Music Easel, his primary composition and performance instrument. Drawing influence from the pioneering work of the BBC Radiophonic workshop and Pierre Schaeffer's GRMC, along with musicians like Suzanne Ciani, Laurie Spiegel, Oskar Sala, Dariush Dolat-Shahi and l’Ensemble d’ondes de Montréal, Pat continues to mine the possibilities of the past in order to look to the future of what is possible in the exploration of timbre, ambience and rhythm. In addition to his solo work, Pat also collaborates with his Modular Mondays cohorts, including Ismail Negm, Daniel Àñez, Paddy Mulcahy, Andrew Kilpatrick and Thomas Dupuouy.
