Reader Karol Pokojowczyk (Caught In Joy) shared this live Berlin School style synth jam, Shelter in Sound, featuring four Moog synthesizers: the Moog One, Micromoog, Matriarch and Messenger.
Karol Pokojowczyk takes an old-school approach, recording his performances live to reel-to-reel, using a variety of hardware synths.
What Pokojowczyk has to say about Shelter in Sound:
“If the world feels loud lately, this is your shelter.
Shelter in Sound is my most intimate work to date – a live performance on four analog Moog synthesizers, captured directly to reel-to-reel tape spinning just behind me.
It’s a space to drift, to breathe, to feel.
A quiet voyage through sound – intergalactic, yes, but always safe.”
Shelter in Sound is available on Bandcamp. You can preview it below:
Eurorack synth maker AJH Synths shared this extended Berlin School style synth jam, a studio recording of their performance from Superbooth 2025.
“This is a re-recording of a 20-minute live set by ?@DreamsOfWires? for Superbooth25, and consists of two old tracks from my video back-catalog,” they note. “It’s quite a minimal rig, configured as two all-analogue synth voices – one for melodic patterns, one for pitched drone parts.”
