New Plinky vid! @chiaroben.bsky.social might find this interesting. One of my Insta friends asked me about this, and I was surprised I hadn't covered it. I show what techniques I use to navigate the surface in regards to pitches. #synthsky #eurorack #modularsynth youtu.be/Ak5s3Cnr4HU

Same!

Yes!

I'm a member of @subvert.fm and today is the day the artist pages go live! You can find my music there (name your price) as well as many other fantastic indie artists. Check it out! www.subvert.fm/nathan-plante #eurorack #modularsynth #indiemusic

This week's video is all about Plinky's arp system, the last major system I have yet to cover. I go through all the parameters and also show some fun and interactive patch ideas. Enjoy! #synthsky #plinky #eurorack youtu.be/YmIe6vift24

Yes, you!

My newest video is less tutorial, and much more just jamming with some fun toys. Plinky and Norns pair so we'll together, lots of fun to be had with these two... #synthsky #eurorack #modularsynth youtu.be/aQZ81XCParI

Introducing the Plinky12 Chords, a brand new synth from Making Sound Machines and @mmalex.bsky.social . I had so much fun getting to know this one, take a look! #synthsky youtu.be/hvVSP4qf_M0

Showtime in one hour! I've never had to prepare this much music for one performance. Nearly 3 hours. I actually had to compose MORE music because I didn't even have that much in my repertoire. But now I do!

Alright, while I'm waiting to be able to post the Big Announcement™ , please enjoy a wavetable video! youtu.be/FztPo8gP-1o

Can't believe I managed to pack my whole setup! The suitcase weighs around 100kg. Backpack not shown 😬. Pray for me that there will be no shenanigans with the train...

Looking forward to some Easter weekend reading. Finally got my copy of YUCK by Barret Baumgart. As a native Californian, this speaks to me! #booksky

I don't know how the weather is where you are, but in Berlin its cold and dreary. A perfect evening for some dark and crunchy drones! There's a short jam at the end if you're not interested in the patch building. Enjoy! #synthsky #plinky #eurorack youtu.be/YUe8d_Nik6w

You asked, I answered. Thanks for all the questions, I had fun hearing from everyone! Now I need a plan for 1000 subs if it ever happens... youtu.be/G3UwoAeO-L4

I've got plenty of Plinky videos in the pipeline, but I'm curious about what my viewers want to learn about. Here are a few that are on my radar, or you can suggest one! #synthsky youtube.com/post/Ugkx7v9...

This sounds like my cats when they fight 🤣

Not sure how many #plinky fans I have in my feed, but I just released a video all about managing presets on this wonderful little synth. It's a strangely complicated subject, but I hope this video helps make it easier for Plinky users! #eurorack #synthsky #modularsynth youtu.be/9vXsFFTkcqw

....no not that kind of trill! I had a lot of fun with this one. Hope the other #plinky folks out there find it useful! #eurorack #modularsynth #synthsky #startrek youtu.be/eGPRaDbspaE

Hey folks! I'm collecting your questions for an AMA video to celebrate reaching 500 subscribers. Post any burning questions you might have (about me, Plinky, Synths...anything) in a comment below. Thanks for your support!! #synthsky #plinky #modularsynth youtu.be/InZkpztpx40

Trans rights are human rights. ICE should be abolished. The president is a sex offender and formalizing turning the US into a fascist state. Ukraine and Palestine both deserve our support and political will. The climate crisis and biodiversity crises are real. Musk = asshole. Did I forget anything?

It was such a pleasure being interviewed by @lillyschwartz.bsky.social ! She did the cover art for both my albums and also has a wonderful YT channel about synths and photography. We chat about synths, AI and science fiction. Enjoy! #synthsky #eurorack youtu.be/uspzdDIudZk

There is so much pseudoscience and woo in the world of audio gear, this doesn't surprise me at all. gizmodo.com/audiophiles-...

I've got a new Plinky tutorial up! In this one I build an easy ambient patch (drenched in reverb) and talk a bit about how to creatively tweak some of Plinky's parameters. You can patch along with me or just skip to the jam at the end 🤓 #synthsky #eurorack #modularsynth youtu.be/ch53eStkBe4

Art and music have historically survived because of subsidies, so I think this is a great move!

Please enjoy this dark drone to soothe your soul in these horrifying times. youtu.be/7T2fajYqqzg #synthsky #eurorack ##darkambient

Really enjoyed exploring Plinky's sampler in my latest tutorial. The ambient jam at the end was fun too! #synthsky #eurorack youtube.com/shorts/bYio8...

Pretty much sums it up... #eurorack #modular #synthsky #politics youtube.com/shorts/klyhS...

Wow, as if Spotify couldn't get even shittier.... So glad I left and removed my music. #synthsky #deletespotify www.youtube.com/watch?v=wdXE...

In this video I do a detailed run down of the differences between the original Plinky and the new Plinky+. If you're sick of my Plinky videos already then go ahead and unfollow now 🤣 more are coming! #synthsky #eurorack #plinky youtu.be/l9Hc8pxv-78

Great article on making a distinction between "AI" and generative. I use plenty of generative techniques in my music but no AI, it's important to make the difference clear! Kind of frustrating that the AI movement has taken control of that word. abductedandroid.vuilniszak.be/insights/gen...

I made another #plinky video! Can you tell I love this synth? 🤣 This one is inspired by a piece from Arvo Pärt. I recorded out in the forest next to an Grant cheese set. Enjoy! #eurorack #synthsky youtu.be/RWKpyxDdguQ

True Story! #deleteSpotify #indiemusic #synthsky

Streaming release today...but NOT on Spotify! Here are 4 reasons why I removed my music and deleted my profile. The best way to support your favorite artists is to buy their music directly and attend their live performances. Support human-made music! #deletespotify #synthsky #experimentalmusic

Super stoked about this review from @terminal313.bsky.social ! "Conceived with care and craftmanship, Electric Forest is the ideal way for detaching oneself from everyday fuss." Thank you Janno 😊 #synthsky #experimentalmusic terminal313.net/2025/09/nath...

A more personal view on releasing music publicly. I'm sure I'm not the only independent artist who struggles with imposter syndrome. Little positive comments, even from strangers, can make such a big difference! #synthsky #impostersyndrome #modularsynth

Not sure how many Plinky fans there are among you all, but the extra large Plinky Plus is out! Already having lots of fun with it and it was great putting together this build video! #synthsky #diy #eurorack youtu.be/pTlcdwfW1fU?...

This week's Other People's Music features contributions from @wordsshiftminds.bsky.social (a deep, varied and well produced genre-crossed electronic album) & @electricbirds.bsky.social (field-recording enhanced ambient) among its ample charms. Listen & boost! www.etherdiver.com/2025/08/22/o...

Super happy to be featured in this interview by Abducted Android! I talk a lot about my creative process, influences and challenges. An easy read for a sunday morning 🤓 #synthsky #eurorack #modular #experimentalmusic abductedandroid.vuilniszak.be/interviews/i...

Thanks to everyone who tuned in to the listening party, it was nice to chat to you all while we listened!

Please join me in just under two hours for the Electric Forest listening party! It's free and super chill (no video), just the music and a live text chat. Say hi if you're there! #synthsky #eurorack #experimentalmusic #bandcamp nathanplante.bandcamp.com/merch/electr...

Super grateful to be included in this week's post of Other People's Music by the wonderful @etherdiver.bsky.social ! "A welcoming blend of ambient, orchestral and field recording that invites you to lie down among its titular trees and soak up the ample vibes." ☺️💯🙏🌳🌳 #synthsky #experimentalmusic

Release Day! Excited to share "Electric Forest" with you all. The album is exclusively availble on @bandcamp.com and @ampwall.com. On both platforms its "name your price", so it suits any budget. This one is quite special to me, I hope you enjoy it! #synthsky #experimentalmusic #eurorack

Tonight in #Berlin! Join me for the free pre-release performance this evening at 8pm at Cocoon.

The first teaser for the new album is now up on Youtube! This one features track 3, "Undergrowth", which is by far the most raucous track on the album. Can't wait to release the whole album on Friday! #synthsky #eurorack #modularsynth #experimentalmusic #dronemusic #darkambient youtu.be/LAbYQ2hlomU

The mood board and resulting cover art for Electric Forest, made by the wonderful Lilly Schwartz. We used one of the photographs in her portfolio and she went full aerochrome. I really like the look, it suits the music so well. Release this friday! #aerochrome #albumart #eurorak #synthsky #noai

Very excited to release my new album Electric Forest this coming friday! I've planned my first every listening party to celebrate. Join me on Saturday at 8pm CEST on Bandcamp! #eurorack #modularsynth #experimentalmusic #listeningparty youtube.com/shorts/_e-Hu...

In this jam I finally use the trumpet! It starts a bit slowly to build up the drone, so not a very good jam for the 3 second attention span of the internet 😆 #synthsky #dronemusic #experimentalmusic #eurorack youtu.be/Nmj25-phLfo

For those of you in #Berlin or the surrounding area, save the date! I'll be performing live at my album release pre-party next Thursday August 21st. Entry is free! And I might bake coookies 🤓 #experimentalmsuic #synthsky #eurorack #performance

Just a little fun with this "VCA", which is actually way more than that. The FM sweep can track 1v/oct too 🤓 #eurorack #modularsynth #synthsky youtube.com/shorts/xwNkE...
