MOOT BOOXLE - On the Improv Tip!





Moot Booxle is one artist that creates experimental music to push boundries! In fact you may want to call him an electronic explorer. As he puts it "These sounds were intended for more cerebral listening, preferably with headphones. But then again, you can listen to it how ever you want. I don't really care."

The instrument Moot Booxle is playing is an instrument called a modular analogue synthesizer made poplular back during the day by such artists as Brian Eno (when he was with Roxy Music), The Who, and Todd Rundgren, among many others. A well-known example of its use is on Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon, as well as "Welcome to the Machine" from their 1975 album, Wish You Were Here.

Moot list's his influences as experimental composers John cage, Morton Subotnick and Dick Hyman." However all synth music can be traced back to one Musical inventor Dr. Robert Moog Inventor of Moog Music.


So, Although it may not be right for your next college Kegger or that dinner party with the in-laws, you have to admire Moot Booxle's improvisational skills. why dont you sit back, close your eyes and take it in all that cerebral madness.
