    Yes! Daft Punk, Bjork, Radiohead! And what about something totally different, like Steel Pulse integrating Moog equipment?

  8. Radio Follower says:

    Orbit DVD…Good call on the RUSH reference. They were ahead of the game back in the 70's, as many prog-rock bands were with the use of Moog's "synth-pedals" to create atmospheric sounds with their music. Genesis, YES, King Crimson, etc. Great bands that pushed the envelope, musically.
    Miss those days!
