Behind the Scenes at Moog Music
Cool Hunting got a tour of Moog Music and shared a lot of great info and pictures. Moog Music is known for their high quality analog synthesizers.
Though Bob Moog (rhymes with “rogue”) was born and raised in New York City, the engineer and inventor moved to the mountain town of Asheville in 1978, where he tended to his organic garden, dreamt up new ideas for synthesizers and even taught at UNC Asheville. Now, Moogfest takes place in Asheville, North Carolina and celebrates the legacy of the man who turned electricity into music, starting with theremins to voltage-controlled analog synthesizers that have been used by everyone from The Beatles to prog rock bands and experimental artists.
