An absolute must-have for vintage electronica heads, space-age pop enthusiasts, producers, and all fans of adventurous pop music.
Released at the height of Jean-Jacques Perrey’s long career, Moog Indigo offers a kaleidoscopic array of sounds, blending funk, lounge, and the avant-garde, delivered with imagination and the artist’s signature playful sensibility. The centerpiece of the album, “E.V.A.”, has been heavily sampled by acts as diverse as Kool Keith (aka Dr. Octagon) (1996’s “3000”) and Pusha T (2014’s “Lunch Money”) to Fatboy Slim (whose 1997 remix of the song became a classic dancefloor staple) and stands the test of time with its space-age funk. Most recently, “E.V.A.” was included in the critically-acclaimed, sought-after 4-LP collection, Jazz Dispensary: Cosmic Stash, which was released exclusively for Record Store Day in April 2016. Rounding out the record is “Gossipo Perpetuo,“ a tape loop collage that combines chattering voices with a fast-paced synthesizer samba groove, creating a smile-inducing slice of electronic pop. Apple tapped this tune as part of 2016’s “Shot on iPhone” ad campaign.
