As i assume the Moog community to be somewhat more open minded than the other forums i am part of (Orange Amps, Doom Forums etc.) i thought i’d share some of my work.
I lost pretty much everything recorded between 2010 and 2012 but i am sharing everything i do from now on here:

There is little Moog content on Groovetemple Music so far, but there’s something i recorded when i first got my Vo (Edwards/Rushent/Purcell Trio) and my latest Doom-Jazz project “The Deadjohnsons’ Big Incredible Day” features my Vo and Little Phatty.
there’s not much by The Deadjohnons up yet, we just did two quick jams to fin our sound. The second was pretty good, but i was using a looper which i’d never used before to make dubby synth loops and the repeat for the first dub line is rather off time. We play very abstract music so we still had fun over the top, but it may sound weird to listeners.
This was my first jam doing guitar and synth, and there’s not a huge ammount of interesting synth work. It’s mainly there for basslines, hopefully someone here will like it.
We did a very well received gig last week with a guest DJ, but unfortunately no recordings. Now that we know where we’re going with this project we will have some far more professional sounding recordings in the next two weeks.
A couple of videos for our first session (no synth, just Drums, Vo and Piano) are here:

I hadn’t been playing much up until the Deadjohnsons jams, so i’m not at my tightest… but hopefully people will agree that there’s some interesting ideas. Our next recording will be great!
BE WARNED: It’s all VERY abstract, and purposefully so. and all 100% live and improvised.
The best thing on Groovetemple is the Foetus in a Jar track, which is layered bass drones and ambient guitar work. all done live in a very meditative state. My first live soundscape, but very powerful if you listen in the right conditions. (candle lit room & loud, clear speakers)
Thanks for your time, and i would appreciate any feedback you have.
