Farstead Studio

Farstead Studio

Company for the long dark.

On a distant star in the far future of your world, we make instruments for souls on their lonesome journeys across far ranging nebulae.

On the bench

What we're building, fixing or listening to this season.

  • Kazute. An pocket instrument for solemn field riders.
  • Ground Looper. Watch refit.
  • Kirbytron. An instrument of cosmic immediacy.

What we make

Instruments

Things that listen.

Synths for the long, quiet stretches between stars. Play them like any instrument; they also keep careful notes on the old music.

Worlds

Places to wander.

Small games set under the lattice. Quiet, strange, and finished before they ship.

The far archive

Our old sun sits inside a lattice now, built to catch its last light. Under that lattice, we are cataloging every piece of Earth's music we can find. Some of what we build is for that work.

Built for the long haul

Few parts, open formats, no destructive refits. We build so the work keeps running through the weather, with or without us.
