ENDORPHIN.ES [ ɛnˈdɔː(r)fɪnz ] specializing in breaking age musical technology - manufacturer of eurorack modular, electronic musical synthesizers and effects pedals.
It was founded in 2010 by Andreas Zhukovsky: engineer, designer, and hardware developer of all Endorphin.es products.
The company takes its beginning in Kyiv, Ukraine where Andreas was born. Having electronic music production skills and mathematical master background, since 2008 he started to sketch his own synth DIY designs.
On 23rd of November 2010 he registered ‘endorphin.es’ domain name and @endorphin_es twitter account which defined the beginning of the company’s name.
The first synth prototype became of now-famous Furthrrrr Generator.
The VCO in its design initially was inspired by Programmable Complex Waveform Generator Model 259.
This vintage modular synthesizers were not accessible in a post-soviet environment, so the idea of Andreas was to bring newly accessible technology to himself in the rising eurorack format to make it more affordable for musicians and sound designers yet adding modern features like tuners and properly stable oscillators.
In 2011 Andreas moved to Vienna where next year in 2012 he finally makes the Furthrrrr Generator fully working. That was a signature product that combined two analog triangle core voltage controlled oscillators (VCO): modulator and carrier. Modulator is able to modulate the carrier by 4 modulation types: amplitude, balanced (or ring) modulation, frequency and waveshaper modulation, along with hard and soft synchronizations.
In 2013 Julia Bondar joins forces with Andreas and they register this activity officially in Kyiv, Ukraine with the company Endorphines and Associates Ltd. Since then the company started to manufacture and distribute Furthrrrr Generator to the music stores all over the world.
