With evenings drawing in and the festive season approaching, our thoughts turn to epic semi-legal compilations of '60s & '70s funky synth music. Sonic Reclamation Industries have put together a fantastic free downloadable collection called 'Moog Break Beats', which is full of synth-led cover versions, square-wave solos and really excessive effects use (some nice full-track flanging on Sounds Galactic's 'Spinning Wheel'). My own personal favourite is Claude Denjean's awesome version of 'Na Na Hey Hey (Kiss Him Goodbye).' (via J-Chot)

The best Moog album... ever?

I have the one with Na na na kiss him goodbye on it...picked it up in a thrift shop for 50 cents!
ReplyDeleteThese are amazing!!
ReplyDeleteI always rock the switched on sound when ever I play out. People go crazy for Moog covers. Can't believe Dick Hyman didn't make it onto this though!!

They said the idea was to preserve hard to find music. Dick Hyman's Moog albums were re-released on CD a few years ago. Same for Perrey & Kingsley, and Jean-Jacques Perrey's solo stuff (which is all really great, by the way).
