What is Toneveld?

Toneveld is a field for sound culture.

In a world built around attention — around the fleeting moment that generates the all-important click — music is rarely perceived as an artistic statement, a source of inspiration, or an expression of individuality.

Toneveld embarks on an attempt to reclaim this depth and the concentration on the conscious perception of music - along with its statements and stances. We are a field for machines, sources, records and texts.
We collect and build things that can become starting points: audio machines with character, rhythm boxes, visual transformations as well as sound sources, textures and some words to read. Read more... →

Objects to explore.

Dusky harmonic drones

A dark harmonic drone synth - shaped by overtones, drift and slow movement

When Music Starts Drawing

Cicade transforms sound into moving lines, shapes and visual structure.

Precise Glacial Tone Generator

Krill is a quiet additive synth for cold movement. It drifts between pure tone and icy texture — delicate, wide and almost weightless, with grit waiting under the mod wheel.

Analogue Juno Glow

Lobster is inspired by the japanese way of shaping sound in the 80s. Built to create a focused atmosphere without too many decisions.

Deep Expressive Space

Whale delivers the wide and endless kind of a sound for infinte landscapes and depth of space. Deckard says hello.

Transforms your audio into moving Textures

Load an audio file or connect a live input. STARFISH turns sound into floating textures made of granular clouds, small loops, spectral sustain, and dry signal.

8 Track True Analogue

A stylish and compact drumbox. OCTOPUS is just using oscillators (and no samples) for building a great range of analogue but complex and punch drum tones. And you get 8 tracks.

Our kind of Reverberation.

Conch is a convolution reverb for resonant spaces and organix transformations.

Infinite granulator

Uroboro transforms your audio in a chromatic playable infinite texture.

Sine waves are never getting boring. Eel is a great example of how sine waves can be used in your track.

Listening Recomm.

A new work by Jumpel — warm, pulsing and atmospheric, shaped with Toneveld machines and sources.

20 Records To Know

A map, not a canon.

20 records that changed the way of musical expression.

You Need to Hear

Eleven film scores that work as autonomous listening experiences — outside the cinema, outside the image.

Piano body recordings

Recorded with a contact microphone placed directly on the body and frame of a piano. Material that reveals itself when passed through granular or convolution processing.

Audio from the Modular Wall

An rich assortment of different styles of samples, snippets, drones and textures. All were made just by using the Modular Hardware Wall.

Riffs recorded through the DP4+

Electric guitar riffs and fragments recorded through the DP4+. Feed them into a granular processor and they stop being guitar entirely.

Rooms, objects, domestic space

Recordings made inside — rooms with their particular acoustics, objects struck and scraped. The sounds that exist in a space before music enters it.

Build your own dread machine

The piezo hears what your ear doesn't: Mount objects that promise noise. From there, electronics do the rest. A way to make dystopian sounds yourself — like Nordic Noir by Cinematique Instruments.
