In the Moog for Bach?

Saturday, 17 January 2009

 

A must listen to 1968 album by Wendy Carlos.  Switched on Bach paved the way for synthetic electronic music, or maybe Moogsic?  Hummm.  Well, this album could quite easily have fallen flat on its face and aged very quickly, instead it’s fresh and dripping with atmosphere.  It takes a complex piece of J.S Bach music and makes it instantly accessible.  Praise the Moog synthesiser, praise Wendy Carlos.
