Bettina Schroeder manipulates sound on the electric ukulele, pushing boundaries and definitions of conventional music. Her approach incorporates distinctive and unorthodox ingredients to create music exploring the potential of her instrument to its fullest. The use of found objects, preparations and effects programmes to construct layers of sound evokes anything from machine cacophony, to the melancholic wash of waves.
