Alright, this will be the last installment (for now) of a multiple part guide to BPM. Again, if you missed the earlier posts, you can check them out here: An Introduction, Exotica, Sounds of the Space Age, and Excellent Ensembles.
To be frank, I hate Moog music. However, it's important for the bachelor-around-town to know a variety of BPM. Think of it as trivia that you can pull out while trying to impress that chick at your bar.
Well, Moog music is a form of early electronic music. It often includes theremins and other early synthesizers. The music takes its name from Robert Moog, who invented and marketed the Moog synthesizer. By the way, the pronunciation of "Moog" rhymes with "vogue."
Here's why I hate Moog music. Nearly all the songs sound like somebody is stringing together cartoon sound effects together in an attempt to see how many unrelated sounds they can squeeze into one song. Also, artists tend to just use famous songs, but remake them using obnoxious noises.
Regardless of my opinion, you may like it, and if not, you never know when you'll be in the trenches and wish you knew what it sounded like. Check out these tracks on SomaFM:
