This is a short example render of 'modnet', an experimental FM synthesizer I wrote for a performance with visual artists Sune Petersen and Max Hattler at 'Science Friction' in Copenhagen, May 28th, 2013.

The synthesizer is an experiment in algorithm-generated FM patches, and slow metamorphosis between pairs of such patches.

I also ended up using modnet for certain parts of the '140' soundtrack.

Copenhagen-based electronic music composer Jakob Schmid combines the harmonies and aesthetics of 70s and 80s new age music with deep basslines and beats of contemporary UK electronic music. The result is both melancholic and energetic.

Schmid has decades of experience in computer music, starting with using tracker software in the 80s, progressing towards creating his own experimental music software, including new types of synthesizers.

Schmid composed the music for multi-award-winning rhythm video game '140', a journey into a world of abstract shapes and beautiful harmonies, accompanied by pulsing beats at 140 BPM.
