2001 A MOOG ODDYSEY
In 2001 Jean Jacques Perrey and Luke Vibert met for the first time to embark on a fantastic journey that would finally yield the remarkable ‘Moog Acid’.
The ‘Moog Acid’ album covers many of the styles you would expect from such a creative partnership, insane cut ups using JJP’s original samples, drum and bass, disco, hip hop and funk beats, the voice of Jean Jacques, together with trumpet, sitar, percussion and all manner of Moogs and electronic manipulation, to create one of the most inspirational and enjoyable albums you’re ever likely to hear. -Lo Recordings
So being the thrift store lover that I am, I find myself there way to often. It’s bad really, it’s almost an addiction. There was a time when I would hit up 3 Goodwills after work. Everyday. It got to the point where the workers knew me by name. There just something about the ambiguous findings of the thrift store.
Normally CDs at the thrift store just aren’t worth looking at but one rainy afternoon i decided to peruse the CD collection at Goodwill. This particular Good will was opened up next to a now closed original Tower Records store. R.I.P. T.R. It seems that Goodwill inherited some of Tower’s ear and eye candy. After a few minutes of flipping through endless amounts of BS I come across the interesting cover with a drawing of two characters, one playing the thermion and the other singing and playing a Mini Moog. I thought to myself “Ooo what spacey sounds await me here!”.
It was a group named The Volt Per Octaves, an unsigned Synth Pop group from Santa Barbara.
