very nice clips!

and very old school German synth music also

and the patch he has, it reminds me a lot the German 70's progressive band "Eloy" -they used a lot the Mini D with lead sounds like the one in the clip.

A bit boring...

was quite interesting but the music played is played well but not exactly hip trendy or would make me want to part with good money for a moog (yes i already have one but thats by the by)

moog should be trying a bit harder and getting the future moog heroes on board with electronic dance music rather than thigh slapping austrian folk music, that's just not going to sell you more units, supporting people trying to do new things with your products is the way forward.

not trying to get more people into new wave yodelling.

just my 2p

Hmm....as part of the younger Moog userbase, I don't really agree with this. I bought a Moog mainly because it doesn't sound like a techno synth.

Hasn't electronic dance music been "unhip" for about a decade now? It's all about new age & prog synth riffage now.....

I hope this is a joke.

That said, Moog has a tough job to equally represent all musical demographics interested in utilizing their instruments. New Age/Prog stuff obviously has a home in Moog, but electronic dance is bigger than it's ever been, and even many "indie" rock bands w/ electronic leanings aren't necessarily being well represented, to say nothing of industrial/ebm/psytrance/insert_niche_genre_here_. Moog definitely should be putting more emphasis on attracting these genres.
