It’s becoming increasingly common to find electronic artists and creatives having a hand in the development of the types of creative tools they themselves want to use. It’s often the case that those questing, ideafilled creatives are used as the originators of concepts that product development teams would never hit upon themselves. In the case of BLEASS Software, working with respected French DJ and producer Canblaster when building the ingenious BLEASS Arpeggiator led them to create a plugin far beyond their initial concept, and one that snapped into Canblaster – aka Cédric Steffens – chancebased workflow perfectly.
We spoke to Cédric to learn more about this collaboration, his upcoming three-part record and how using his regular livestreams helps keep him creatively productive.
