NINA SESSIONS
Sept. 20, 2023
Nina Sessions Ep. 2
DANIEL MOUGERMAN, ANGUS RADLEY & GRAEME POGSON
This session features two songs - the first, 'SWIMMING' is an original composition by Mougerman, Pogson & Radley, written exclusively for this recording and features Graeme on live drums. The second tune is 'TEXTURES', composed by Herbie Hancock for his 1980 'Mr. Hands' album, and was selected by the band as a piece they thought was a great opportunity to showcase Nina. Both songs use a mix of factory presets, and the artist's own presets/sound design.

Nina Sessions Ep. 1
CLOSE COUNTERS
We asked Melbourne duo, CLOSE COUNTERS to choose one of their songs that they thought would be interesting to play on Nina. It was their idea to use two Ninas, and create a live improvised rendition of their song 'BREAK FROM IT' using only Ninas, their Nord Stage keys and a TR-8S drum machine. The above video is entirely live with no overdubs or additional effects. There has been minimal mastering and post production to the final mix, giving you a very true indication of Nina's sound and sonic palette.

Press Reviews
January, 2024
BEAT Magazine Germany
Expensive gimmick or synthesizer of the future?
“ NINA has a lot to offer “ Jan Wilking
October, 2023
SOUND ON SOUND Magazine
Are the motorised knobs of Melbourne Instruments’ debut synth a gimmick, or should all synths have them?
“ It’s reliable, it’s deep, it sounds excellent and it’s thrown down one very large gauntlet to developers everywhere. “
September, 2023
MIXDOWN MAGAZINE
Melbourne Instruments NINA
“ A piece of Australian history in the making, the NINA is a synth to get your hands on and Melbourne Instruments is a company to watch closely.”
