In this episode, we interview Sonja, aka Sofie Mikhaylova. Sonja is a DJ, experimental synth artist, music writer and editor, workshop organizer and facilitator, and creator of independent record label Biblioteka Records.  
We chat with Sonja about her new e-book Experimenting, avoiding trying to make music the "right" way, messages to our past musical self, and recording the physical sounds of her modular synth.

Spectral voyage of a refrigerator (disquiet0487)

I added a third layer to the track Drone Void which included @SlimOvni's contribution to the original drone created by @morgulbee.

I tried to add a pulse created with Lira 8 (vst) and Valhalla Super Massive.

Drone Trio (disquiet0527)

Been feeling very off lately... work pressures, personal pressures, they've had a pretty big impact on me lately and as a result I haven't been making much music.  This was an attempt to shake my head and bring me back a bit.  I decided to limit myself to Ciat-Lonbarde instruments only.  There is a tiny amount of software reverb and delay but other than that it is all from the instruments.  Completely improvised, no cuts.

Added an ADAT expander so more voices at once. This is  V-synth, RD-8, Synthi and Easel.

Dreamfall

A significant shift in energy occurs at sunset.  This track was inspired by, created and recorded during that significant time.

A collaboration of Intrepita and Android Dreams.  We hope you enjoy it!

Sunset Shift

Stolen Counterpoint - Steal from Electric Counterpoint

Dark Ambient and Berlin School with a smattering of Industrial and Musique Concrête.  Toronto based electronic musician and member of The Canadian Electronic Ensemble.  Modern modular synths, classic hardware synths, field recordings, software synths, along with digital and analog effects all have their place and find a home in my music.  Most (but not all!) of what you find here are rough cuts & works in progress.  I hope you like it!
