About Us

Glow Worm Studio is a project studio located in the Netherlands. It is based around a large collection of vintage and modern synths, outboard effect units and other musical goodies, collected during the last 40 years. A video is available, which is in the mean time seriously outdated, but it gives an impression.

Projects include music for exhibitions and other events, but most projects are non-commercial and basically for private satisfaction and consumption. Some examples of past projects and musical experiments can be found here.

However, recently another type of activity takes place in the glow Worm studio: The sampling of various obscure, vintage, expensive or otherwise interesting synths, and further processing in Native Instruments Kontakt. The intention is to make great sounds available, derived from instruments which may be out of reach for many musicians, at a low price, but without compromises when talking quality (or quantity for that matter). You will find a large and ever expanding selection of sample packs in the shop.

Details about the philosophy, set-up and infrastructure of the studio can be found here.
