Inside the Playroom at @smemmusic , @_molekuehl spent a few days surrounded by synthesizers and traces of electronic music history.

For this year’s Passage Festival residency, molekühl worked across old machines and new ways of shaping her live practice, bringing some of the Playroom’s rare instruments into her live set at Passage.

Alongside the residency, the experience also unfolded into a conversation with molekühl about her practice and the ideas behind the project, shared through @transition.radio.

Thanks to @bluefactory_quartier and everyone for making this nice collaboration possible!
