Alphatronic—analog electronic sound synthesis expert Daniel Wihler—unveils a four-part digital EP series, “The Way To The Capacitor.” Spanning ambient, electro, and techno, the project distills decades of hands-on work with modular and vintage gear into focused, tactile tracks. For Wihler, Alphatronic is an ongoing process: a cycle of discovery, experiment, and refinement. In his tireless search for new timbres and aesthetics, he has forged a recognizable signature—never static or nostalgic, but continuously evolving. Knobs are turned, faders ridden, envelopes shaped until the result simply sounds like Alphatronic. Across 13 tracks, wide pads meet razor-edged arpeggios, carefully composed melodies collide with intricate drum architecture, and textures dissolve into space just as the next sawtooth rises to strike. It’s music of precision and motion—immersive, physical, and beautifully engineered.
