New on the Felt editorial - a conversation with Sönke Düwer of Ensemble Du Verre about his album 'Lost In Your Garden'. We talk about the accidental discovery that shaped the whole record, working with guest musicians, and why he thinks AI is already replacing musicians - and why that doesn't mean it's over. Link in bio!

I'm excited to announce that Brut, my new saturation plugin, is out now! Brut is an eclectic collection of the best-sounding studio and test equipment, meticulously modeled using custom cutting-edge technology. Link in bio!

I don't know how much of this jam is going to make it to the final playthrough video, but it's been years since I've had this much fun with a plugin. Here I'm playing around with drive, feedback, and filters to mangle a drum loop on an @weareelektron #machinedrum. Headphones recommended!

Thanks so much for your support and enthusiasm! I hope you had a wonderful end of the year, and that the new one has treated you gracefully so far. The world seems like a crazy place right now, and yet, 2026 feels somehow hopeful to me. Maybe it's the sun, maybe it's that I'm beginning to learn to accept things - either way, I feel it's going to be a good year.

I've been intentionally keeping my social media activity to a minimum, focusing on time with my family and creative work at Felt. I know it might seem like there isn't much going on, but I've been working on new things most of the time since 2019. Here's what's coming this year:

→ Around mid-month, I'll release Brut, my saturation plugin with 6 stunning preamp models, brutal feedback distortion, the Klangfilm tilt section, and two experimental filters. I'm very proud of how this turned out.

I was planning to release it last December, but I managed to reduce the CPU use significantly just before the planned release, and I decided to spend more time and fine-tune this. The CPU reduction comes from using simpler preamp models and disabling oversampling on saturation. It's switchable, so you can keep the higher quality mode on tracks where you're really pushing the preamps, and use the lighter models on other tracks.

→ The same feature, along with other improvements, are coming to Kolor later this year, too.

→ Around mid-year, I'll finally release my synthesizer plugin - by far my biggest release ever. It's a polyphonic modular synth based on my favourite modules from both iconic and obscure synthesizers. After years of work, I've come to see synthesizers as design statements. The iconic synths we still compare everything against come with limitations forced by physical hardware. When every feature costs, you need to make choices. After spending years making my dream synth, I've come to appreciate these restrictions. I believe good design - and maybe art in general - is about making choices.

→ Rysy v2 is also coming this year with the preamp section and upgraded filter response. Free update for all users.

I was set to launch Brut today, but I got lost in the last-minute tweaks, and I'm still going! Doing it right matters more than doing it fast. See you mid-January - it will be worth the wait!

The annual Felt charity campaign is ending this weekend! If you've had your eye on one of the plugins, now is the perfect chance to grab it. 20% of all sales will be donated to a local refugee art scholarship program, run by the @homo_faber_association in Poland (where I'm based). The program allows children and adults who found themselves in Poland because of the war in Ukraine to continue their creative and professional development in music and visual arts.

The RCA OP-6 is a legendary tube preamp from the 1950s. I love its larger-than-life sound and sparkling top-end glow that makes everything sound beautifully alive and 3D. This particular unit belonged to Nils Frahm and was used on some of his recordings. The best part? It's coming to your studio next month—along with an eclectic collection of esoteric saturation and distortion devices.

A combination of a high-gain amplifier and a filter is an experimental studio staple. The #rohddeundshwarz #ubm filter has a unique shape, similar to a resonant highpass. Combined with raging feedback, it offers a wide range of tones, from resonant plink-plunks to proper tube mayhem. Your next go-to, from yours truly is coming soon. #feltinstruments

The best thing about vintage equipment has nothing to do with tubes and transformers. Well, at least for the most part.

I just started writing a casual, irregular editorial series, where I'll be sharing thoughts on all things sound, Felt, design, and everything the random signal generator that's apparently built into my brain spits out. Link in bio!
