SUMMARY:Super Booth 2025
DESCRIPTION:The idea of Superbooth has a history of over 20 years. It all started as a part of the Musikmesse in Frankfurt\, when a handful of friends and like-minded nerds created their very own and special spot for synth enthusiasts. This common space presented a collection of small and passionate manufacturers of exotic hardware and electronic music instruments- the (original) SuperBooth.
