Colin Benders Live at Amsterdam Dance Event 2016
Музыка
I did a livestream of my entire Amsterdam Dance Event performance at de melkweg in Amsterdam. I had been sick as a dog for a week so I took it a bit slow. eventually I couldnt help myself so I brought some chaos in the mix. was fun. lets do it again sometime!

Yes, absolutely. The close proximity, the loving glances, the mutual stomping, the common vibe, the closed eyes and total immersive personal experience that you have yourself and see others having when you break periodically from the trance - is all part of the experience. Yes, I totally miss my strangers in dark venues.

I’m writing a short story about the end of the world listening to this piece. Colin doesn’t know it but he wrote the soundtrack.
This video is my first exposure to Colin's music. I was just reading about the fact that electric guitar sales have decreased drastically and the 2 largest guitar manufacturers are under water. This is because there are no current electric guitar virtuosos that have captured the popular consciousness. Now I see where the instrumental virtuoso has gone; he is in a packed room, playing modular synthesizers!

I used to listen to stuff like this in the early 7th century, we recorded it on mud disks using dodo quills and a pigskin diaphragm
The fact that he can do all this in darkness is amazing to me!
why are people bothered about the crowd? some of the best music experience from shows i've had is just simply stopping. closing my eyes and letting the music do it's beautiful work. the room is dark the vibe is set, this is not a dubstep show. let people experience it how they want! Also @Colin Benders, this was truly beautiful. is there by any chance a wav or mp3 of the set available? Would love it for my own listening.

Really inspirational! One of the best live modular jams I've seen
Love it! So much respect for anyone that can pull off a set like this with so many variables in their rig!
When goosebumps appear and reappear in a frequent manner. This is just lit.
Great work Colin! That was a stellar intro
This is up there one of the best modular synth performances. Stunningly beautiful, hypnotic and lush. Had to stop everything else I was doing to just listen. Thanks Colin, this is so awesome!
Well.... I just can say, this was one amazing experience ! Thanks so much for recording and uploading this beauty. This is 100% electronic music on his best quality
Pretty obvious he doesn't care if they dance or not, he's playing his music. If they dance, great, but his motivation is the sounds coming from that fun looking rig. Once lost in his own world of music he himself lets loose, if the crowd can't connect it's not his fault. Difference between DJ and live production; DJ tries to play the crowd, producer plays their heart.

@@wispa1a indeed modular is super tricky to pull off for a live gig and small issue can ruin a whole show. That is what I like about my simple Elektron Analog 4 setup. One hardware box with 4 voices and tons of programmed patches that work like a charm. Now I don't have six cases of fancy Eurorack modules with hundreds of wires and cool flashing lights but I can put my whole show in one small pack and plugin and do a show right away easily without worries.
Pretty incredible to see him come from being just a musician conducting his own band, to just having a 6U Eurorack making somewhat "bird" tunes to now being an influential in the modular synth genre. I say this but 2020's is going to see a huge shift to this, and I am just beginning too, hope to be able to play venues one day man.

Hey, the audience are under a spell, and I must be as well, as I'm just compelled to watch this entire set in one go. Wow. Powerful magic. Wonderful.
this music takes my mind elsewhere. so good.
An hour and change... stopped me from watching this for so long. I totally dig Colin but rarely have time for long vids. So I thought I'll just listen to it in segments. Nah, nothing doing... everytime I thought it would be a good time to pause the transition would kick in and I was sucked back in. Then somewhere around the 37 min mark all hell breaks loose...just sublime. Just so inspiring. I can't wait to get through this freaking pandemic and set up some gigs like this locally. Thank you Colin, you are a big part of my continuing to explore and share the never ceasing sounds in my soul.
what amazing sound, an incredible trip, mind goes everywhere
This is really one of my goals. I love it
Man, its just MAGIC! I love it Colin Benders, cheers!
37:00 is absolutely ridiculous. That's so incredibly hard to do in an improv modular context, believe me

good promo. now they need to book you for dancing kids
WHOHOOOOOO!!!!!!! Extraordinary! Very impressive sound. Top work!!!

just found out about you yesterday. yeah bless my ignorance but... i believe i never heard anyone master modulars like you do. just watched your stream today and i had so much fuc*ing fun. i commented there that you can be compared to any master on any instument and honestly i was thinking about hendrix on the guitar but this is so much more... your intuition on these machines makes me on one hand value my little trips on my ms20 a lot and on the other just wonder at the possibilities. the depth of this is amazing! keep us stomping or dreaming, wtv makes you happy!
wow this is amazing, I totally get why everyone is stood watching and listening and letting the synths and sounds hit their souls deep. I love the banging hard stuff and going ape shit but sometimes its just better to go back to basics and just stand with no phone and take it all in and let the subconscious suck it all in. First video i have witnessed with this gent i can only sqy well done and keep this level of greatness up and i will be looking into it more.
osh súper, I loved this set! thanks buddy
You Sir are an absolute musical genius. i just found my new favourite artist. :)

how much will a proper setup cost? (beginner in analog, basical/advanced knowledge with software synthesizers. I think because it's not a "all-in-one" device, it'll be veeery expensive (effect modules (delay/reverb) alone cost more than a few hundrets?!) Except you build em yourself with microcontrollers or buy cheap ones, not that too spaced technology thb. Your 2 cents? :D Greetings from germany

@@DropCoreYT Eurorack starts as an expensive hobby and turns into an addiction. Look on KZread for ‘must have modules’ and sketch it out. Not too many all in one synths do what modular does, so that might be a ‘cheaper’ option to start. If you get a decent semi modular synth you can add modules as you go along. Enjoy the journey.
mega !!! what an awesome gig!
Absolutely killer. Speechless
wow! it's the first time I hear Colin Benders and it's and absolute delight
My favorite performance..! Subscribed!!!
incredible sounding.those modulars are power
Goodness my... This trip unfold my damaged mind. I need to learn this art!
Respect!!! Very impressive!!! This awe-inspiring performance is why I love modular....Artist ONLY, no posers in this game! Faking the funk or a halfass approach is not possible. To do it well requires a humble artist with shitload of dedication, time, patience, passion, sacrifices and unfortunately.....money lol. Bet that rack wasn't cheap Colin but it sure was a damn good investment. I buy gear and records before paying bills on time. Thank you for capturing and sharing this set, very inspiring!
I love this journey.
I always come back to this.
Lovely trip I had ...ur amazing ..
such an amazing performance.
