In this course – produced at Tekserve in NYC – MOLDOVER takes you deep inside his arsenal of DYI MIDI controllers – and his totally genius Ableton Live 9 performance setup – to show you his unique vision of the present and future of technology and music!

MOLDOVER invented the terms “controllerism” and ”controllerist”. With his self-deployed, underground approach – incorporating non-traditional MIDI instruments of his own design into his live performances – he has opened the eyes and ears of a generation of live DIY performance artists the world over.

What most folks don’t know about MOLDOVER is that he dedicates a sizeable chunk of his packed performance schedule to education. He propagates the anthem of the inclusive DIY generation by freely sharing his ideas, concepts and instruments! In this exclusive Ableton Live-centric course, he takes us all on journey into the arcana of his world and all the innovative performance techniques and tools he’s developed and mastered to get there!

So if you’re looking to go “live” and if you're burnt out on the mass-marketed, corporate cookie-cutter controllers that permeate the plywood shelves of the shopping mall “music” stores then, without a doubt, this course is exactly what the DIY doctor ordered!
