BORDER 242 isn’t a commercial project, but a raw, instinctive outlet. No editing. No song structure. Just electricity and emotion.
In his quiet studio, Morris Capaldi, mastermind behind Proofmastering, nurtures a deep passion for analog sound and electronic experimentation. When he’s not fine-tuning albums or mastering tracks for international artists, he escapes into his imperfect personal playground: BORDER 242.
What sets BORDER 242 apart is total creative freedom — no deadlines, no briefs, no constraints. It’s a slow-burning process where each track evolves patch by patch, through hands-on interaction with analog machines and signal chains. Every “sound pill” is the result of spontaneous jams using vintage gear, hardware sequencers, drum machines, and tape machines.
The name itself suggests a threshold — the “Border” between technical precision and artistic impulse — while “242” is a cryptic nod to the European electronic underground of the late ’80s and ’90s, from ambient to industrial.
Each piece is a sonic snapshot: lo-fi, unpolished, alive. A brief transmission from a parallel creative world.
“A sonic postcard from a universe where everything is still ruled by voltages, oscillators, feedback… and passion.”
