Growing up in the late ‘80s/early ‘90s, I was heavily exposed to the sound of the synthesizer and was dreaming of ways to incorporate it in my music.
But, how could that be possible, being a vibraphone player?
When I started experimenting with the Pearl EM1 MalletStation in summer 2018, I realized that this may be the vehicle I needed, to connect me with my teen aspiration: to combine the digital sound with the gorgeous sound of vibes.
Combining e-vibes and vibes is yet further evidence that technology in music is here to stay.
There are endless ways forward and we are voyagers on an exciting journey; let’s dive in and have fun with it!
