Modular Commune has announced that its upcoming festival will be held on November 8th-10th, 2024 in Beijing’s 798 Art District. It will be free for everyone to attend, and features a 3000㎡ synth developer expo and trade show, workshops, novice village, over 60 performances, and more.
The organizing team is delighted to announce the first international iteration of Modular Commune Festival Beijing – the biggest platform for modular synth and other electronic instruments in China and is headed by industry heavyweights tamiX and Demone.
The synth developer expo and tradeshow will include all of China’s main modular and electronic instrument dealers and distributors, as well as developers from both overseas and from all over China. Over 60 artists will perform live modular sets with a separate hall for ambient sets and the after party. All exhibitors are invited to host a workshop in a dedicated hall. Finally, the Novice Village is a small space for guests who are new to modular to try some patching for the first time as well as a resting area with food and beverages.
The Modular Commune Festival has been arranged for 9 years and lets people gather in a vibrant and open space to exchange ideas, perform, and showcase their own systems to the world of modular synth. It aims to introduce the concept and technology of modular synths to a greater crowd and invite them to learn more about techniques as well as exciting new products.
The Modular Commune is more than just a trade show and performance showcase event for artists and industry representatives. It is a space for people to meet, a festival of ideas, a space to make new friends and foster collaboration opportunities. This philosophy is in the core conception, which is also suggested in the events’ name in Mandarin – 交流方式, which roughly translates to “the way of exchange”.
