Kindled by friendship and a fevered desire to explore, 'The Happy Moog' offers a delightful melange of crypto-Ragtime melodies, berserk tape-manipulation interruptions and Technicolor absurdist triumphs.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eOriginally imagined as a children's LP, the final result held a timeless reverie of surreal optimism, futuristic soundscapes and sophisticated arrangements. Cut in a purpose-built 4-track studio with rhythms programmed on the then state-of-the-art Rhythm Ace drum machine, 'The Happy Moog' is a quasi-psychedelic explosion of Moog mayhem and retro-futurism.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe entire LP has been remastered in 2025 and is sounding better than ever before.
