Elektronik i symbios med akustiskt trumset

Abstract

Through experimentation and improvisation i have been working with the task of combining my acoustic drum kit with live electronics to find new sounds and modes to my playing. I ended up learning a new instrument, and being able to control it without discomfort at the same time as playing my drum kit. In this text i will go through the background for this project, explain how i came up with my new setup, show how it works and discuss the outcome by reflecting over a live solo performance that took place in Januari 2017.
