Signal Sounds Synth Club | February 2025

Synth Club is our new interactive social event! It sees you collaborate with fellow synth aficionados to make music to a brief against the clock.

It’s inspired by activity community groups like running clubs and time-limited creative contests like the 48 Hour Film Project.

Once everyone has arrived, you’ll be organised into teams of four.

Someone from your team will pick a card from the Synth Club tote. On it, you’ll find three prompts.

These prompts could be a genre, a BPM, a style of playing, or just about anything that you could consider as a creative jumping-off point.

You and your newly formed team will then have 60 minutes to make a piece of music lasting between 30 seconds and three minutes that uses at least one of the prompts from your card.

At the end of the 60 minutes, we’ll have a ‘show and tell’ of all the music created.

All you really need to bring is yourself; we want Synth Club to be open to everyone, and as such equipment can be provided.

With that said, we'd ask all participants to bring their own headphones.

If you own a synth, we’d also encourage you to bring it along; 60 minutes isn’t a lot of time to write music and familiarise yourself with a synth you haven’t used before! If you are bringing your own synth, please also bring its power supply and the necessary cable to connect to a mixer.

Space is a limiting factor for us here, so if you plan to bring a synth then the smaller the better; and please nothing bigger than a coffee-table book!

Finally, make sure you join our Discord server to stay in the loop about all things Synth Club!
