Technical note: Almost same set up as previous C track except the random Lfo:ed vox patch courtesy of an Arturia Microfreak + occasional Mavis burts:)

On my way down the endless rabbit hole into sonic wonderland...

Paul Schaapherder is an amateur semi-modular artist and bass-player from Eindhoven, The Netherlands.
Under the moniker of P@SCH@ I create music that reflects my early journey into synthesis. With a focus on experimentation, my works invite listeners to share in my discoveries within the realm of electronic music and modular synthesis.  

Also featured are some tracks from bands and projects I am playing (or have been playing) with as a bassplayer. Hope you enjoy!
