Enough of the world's trouble. Have a nice trip instead :)

Time for a pleasant ride instead...

Loving the Moog synthesiser as I always have, Humayun (Octane) last night sent me this link to a YouTube movie set to Moog electronic music against a space-themed backdrop. It's 23 minutes long and the score is a collaboration between synthesiser wizards Pete Namlook (aka Peter Kuhlmann), Klaus Schulze and Bill Laswell. It's off one of their twelve theme albums based on their synthetic re-interpretation of Pink Floyd's albums - this one called "The Dark Side of the Moog - the Final DAT". These guys have been doing this since the 70's and are, uhmmm... rather good.

Take a look - I personally loved it. You'll need a decent internet connection and a good set of speakers or headphones to do it justice:

Enjoy!

That will have to wait until I get home. But I am surprised to hear Bill Laswell refered to as a synthesiser genius - I alway thought he was a rather excelent bassist.

[Omaroo (Chris Malikoff)]

Sorry David - yes, you're right - his contribution to this exercise is as bassist of course. He's pretty well known for his collaborative "collision" efforts.

thanks, as you say they are rather good at what they do.

Glad you liked it.

Plenty more good stuff coming your way soon.

Discerning music for discerning people.

While you're at it, look up Bill Laswell's Axiom Ambient - Lost in Translation.

Magic.

I thought that perhaps he had more than one string to his bow (and 4, 5 or 6 to his bass ).
