Erica Synths launches a residency studio at the headquarters in Riga, Latvia.
In the summer of 2023 Erica Synths finished the construction of and moved into the new headquarters located in Riga, Latvia. Along with the office space, the building doubles as a creative hub for all things electronic music and synthesizers, featuring a residency studio and performance hall. The residency studio has now become the home for a vast array of music instruments built and collected over the decade, since the start of Erica Synths operation.
To apply for future residencies, please contact us with a short motivation letter, a portfolio of past work, and a proposal for the project or idea you wish to execute during the residency. Applications can be sent via Erica Synths Support page, marking the ticket with Other Subjects. Please note that our residency program is currently not funded, and neither travel costs, hospitality, nor stay in Riga can be covered by Erica Synths. We are, however, open to providing an official invitation letter and supporting documents for suitable applicants if you wish to apply for residency funding elsewhere. Residency programs usually last a week, without access to the space on weekends. We can provide a space for a private performance and its documentation to showcase the work created during the residency.
Below you will find the list of all the instruments available as well as a peek into the studio.
