In case you’re not aware of who Mr Moog is, he invented the first personal analogue synth.
Without this, there probably wouldn’t be any techno, drum & bass or psy-trance – at least not as we know it.
Though I don’t know about his politics, I do know about the noise which people contine to make today with his inventions. This noise will continue for longer than we will be alive. I think that deserves some respect.
he started designing electronic instruments in the 50’s, I dont know much about the history of synths but I think that if it wasnt for dr moog, then other synth manufacturers like roland wouldnt have had any inspiration – a roland alpha juno probably would never have been invented (no hoovers), or the tb-303 (no acid lines), the knock-on effect would have meant that bands like the prodigy wouldnt have had any inspiration or synthesizers to create the music that they did, the same goes for thousands of other music producers that shaped electronic music
