I use it every morning. Nothing else is as cool, crisp, and refreshing as a Moog.
Say it with me: "Moog."
Moog.

Moog baby!
Tiobe, why can't you keep ye pornographic sheenanigans to their small section of hell? I really don't want to knwo that you use Moog in the morning or that you even use Moog...keep it to ye self ye pervert!
DJ, I think you've gotten Moog confused with Muugh.
Perfectly understandable. You no doubt thought it was spelled phonetically.
Moog is fine in moderation, but you may need earplugs when used at high power.

Wow, I think there's a lot of confusion over this.
You might want to Google (http://www.google.com/search?source=ig&hl=en&rlz=&=&q=define%3A+moog&aq=f&aqi=g1&aql=&oq=&gs_rfai=CNoQnm0Y_TJf7LYuWMJe8sc4CAAAAqgQFT9ALW9w) it.
You know what I think is really sick and twisted? When people take a perfectly good word and mangle it to mean something else.
Oh for the good old days, when words meant what they meant.
When gay was carefree. When rap was only a sharp knock on my door. When music was a melodic arrangement that was pleasant to listen to. When stars were those little twinkly things up in the sky. When a full moon didn't get you arrested for indecency. When barbie was something you put shrimp on.
Poor, poor moog. You misunderstood word, you. You're only the latest tragic victim of callous and indiscriminate redefinition. Alas, we mourn you.

I highly doubt that any bovine creature, lacking the vitally important opposable thumbs, could create a sound as cool, revitalising, and otherworldly as a Moog. Let me restate that the Moog is the York Peppermint Pattie ™ of analog synths; consequently, if you don't
get the sensation, you simply don't

Let it never be said that I turned down a challenge from a(n un)worthy opponent. :P
For your listening (dis)pleasure, I present, "MoogFest." (http://www.4shared.com/audio/cAaEK-YJ/MoogFest.html) (which includes Rhodes piano and Hammond B3 organ.).
If 'tis dissonant in the middle, 'tis due to the fact that my (stormy) listening habits, of late, have mixed equal measures of Yes and King Crimson, which, if you know the two bands' whiskers well enough, 'tis akin to mixing water and oil.
I will make a prediction: DJ will still be displeased (And, goodness knows, I've indisputably let him, a most worthy opponent, down before, in a different medium.).
Nevertheless, one should
STILL RESPECT THE MOOG.

Getting better, specially like 2:00 to 2:27 the best. However, (you knew it was coming...everyone did) your chords progression is so out of whack and the whole piece (other than the last 27 seconds when ye chords get drowned out) smacks of dissonance. At times, the choices of chords hurt my ears I felt they might bleed....and don't get me started on the voicing choices. Come on Tiobe, hang it up and fall under my tutelage...it's probably the only way we can save the poor Hammond organ you keeping torturing now!
Ah, DJ, you simply wish to make my organ play the blues (http://www.4shared.com/audio/UIGDL5nu/Hammond_Blues.html), and 'tis too early in th' day for it to turn blue. ;)
And, aye, because this is a Moog thread and not a Hammond organ thread, here is the same tune transformed by the magical power of the Polymoog (http://www.4shared.com/audio/88k8mG19/Polymoog_Blues.html)!

Phantom Bunburyist and Whirled Braker
Alright, Tiobe, you finally have one that's saveable in "Easy Livin'". No time keeping problems - in your "Droppin' It on the DJ" and "Droppin' the DJ in the Ocean" songs you seem to lose track of your time signature badly ( 0:17 to 0:36) and only save it by holding out a single note to get back on tempo - and you're voicings and such are suitable for the song. As for your "The Hammond SIngs the Blues", it sounds more like an early soul/r&b song than an actual blues - it contains all the cliches that fall into that song styling isntaed of blues organ. As for "Itsa Myzterie", it's reminisent of an old Final Fantasy game songtrack, a bit creepy that I know that and never really played the games that much. Getting better but ye still ahve some practice to go. Makes me wish my keyboard's transistors hadn't burned out (yes, I had an old original moog..no minimoogs for me..full 88 keys) so I could let you hear what I'm talking about.
*Notices his own words* Okay, when the 'ell did I get so freakin' serious and informative on any type of conversation?!?!? Who spiked my vodka with intelligence?

Final judgement on "Enlightenment": Not to be mean, Tiobe, but "Enlightenment" made my ears bleed and that's hard to maek a dead man's ears do. The background didn't fit the foreground music, and it felt like you were just fumbling around on the keys, no real purpose in the note picking. Sorry.

QuoteYou've recently begun releasing user created music for the community to use in their own leisure. How do you go about creating the music, and do you plan to release much more of it?
There are two explanations for my compositional methods: one spurious and one official (I will not identify which is which, for, I am bound to say, that I, myself, cannot spot the genuine jay.). Death's Jester asserts that I begin (and end) by pounding away aimlessly at the organ keys until something bloody well bleeds (typically, his ears). Alternatively, Lane performs a séance to allow me to channel the spirit of one of my musically-inclined ancestors...before I pound away aimlessly at the organ keys until something bloody well bleeds.
So mainly I was right to begin with, eh?
