Modul8 is a new synth print magazine from Australia that’s devoted to “showcasing artists who are extending what electronic music means”.
The premiere issue features interviews with Detroit / Berlin based Dub Monitor, YouTube synth philosopher JAde Wii, regional Victoria’s best Pure Data wrangler Nicky Systems, lofi lover Kozeps and Melbourne’s Make It Up Club legend Stevie Richards.
Modul8 # 1 also has contributions from analogue stalwart Todd Barton, Paleman and “Melbourne’s undisputed 303 champion”, Honeysmack.
All up, its 56 pages of “utter synth geekery” from around the world.
The magazine was created during Victoria’s covid lockdown by co-founders Phil Coyle and Corey Hague.
“We just wanted something that felt a bit deeper than social media,” explains Coyle. “We both remembered how important and influential magazines had been on us, so we decided to try and make something that lasted longer than a swipe.”
Pricing and Availablity
The premier issue of Modul8 is available now for $15.00.
Nice one! Sick to see a magazine coming outta Aus! Woo
It’s $15 AUD, not USD as some people might assume — but shipping to the US is another $15 AUD, so the total works out to about $18 USD.
endless synth porn is what the internet was made for, why pay for it?
And it has the same name as one of my favorite visualist tools, Modul8. Check it out, and change the title of the magazine: https://www.garagecube.com/modul8/
Six issues max. This business model is dead.
Nice one! Ordered! Great to see a synth mag coming outta Aus!
modul8 is already a sotware, it is easy to check internet before choosing a name..
I let my fingers do the walking on the Web for most all synth info….or I email….or I’ll call the POC’s …..no need to buy mags as far as I am concerned….but some folks like magazines…etc
I’ll be getting a copy for myself. I especially dig the concept of something real and not just social media
U guys are mean! Get my cpppy next week!
I’d be happy to buy a digital copy (free money) even with DRM. Not interested in more paper.
Id love a digital copy. Would be good for the environment
