The Signal Path: Home of Live Hardware Electronic Music

The Signal Path is a Melbourne/Naarm group covering all things related to hardware based electronic music production and performance. We celebrate and share all manner of things relating to the art of creating music with electronic boxes of all varieties.

The Signal Path consists of a radio show, synth meet and events.

Modular Theme Time has now been closed to the public. Albums are still available online here.

Coming Up from The Signal Path

We'll start with a bang as Made in Space kicks things into motion, then descend into the sublime experimental habitats of Artpunk and David Prescott-Steed, before Lincoln Webber attempts to disrupt the ecosystem with some unruly glitch. Neko Devyn will restore balance with some seriously groovy coolness, before Mr. Rachele brings out the hard edge of the groove. Be drawn in and hypnotised by Caity Watson, then Shay Doe will lead us to the final ascent with a pumping dose of hard techno.

Our last guest of the year is Zen Paradox aka Steve Law. He joins us at Wick Studios to chat music and jam for us live. A very special last show of the year.

Home grown Berlin based Sarah Sommers comes in for a chat. She will bring her brand of pink machines in for us to admire. Hopefully we can convince her to plug them in to give us a taste of what they can do. And to finish the year, seeing as he goes to the effort to put on these events, Mr. Rachele decided it was his turn to have a go! Might make this an end of year regular. See you there!


2025 was a great year of connection for TSP in the live hardware scene in Naarm. This year we will be holding live hardware events as well as our signature synth meets at Howler, radio show on Area3000.radio and YouTube videos. If you miss the radio show you can always catch up on The Signal Path YouTube channel.
