I grew up in the era of Bob Moog and Wendy Carlos. My background is more in the engineering side of the business (fixing not mixing). I worked in technical support at the BBC's Maida vale studios and for a while in the Radiophonic Workshop. For my mid-life crisis I wanted a Moog not a Ferrarri! Then I found Arturia. This is me just putting all the years of theory in to practise - I hope you find somethings you like.

Brief summary pre 2010

Blob was born in 1956 and worked in BBC Radio from 1978 until 1990 as an engineer. Much of that time was spent at the MaidaVale recording studios includinng some time with the Radiophonic Workshop.

In 1980 Blob made the difficult choice to move away from music and to work in news and current affairs. In 2005 he decided to reverse that decision and return to his true paaion. Around this time, Arturia introduced Moog Modular V and the time and mood were right to exploit the modern technology.

As we start 2010

Bored with the recession!!!
Time for some retro synth without the equal temperament.

I've been into electronica since I got my Concertmate MG1...awesome stuff, Blob! Nice melody and harmonic progessions, which a lot of electronic music lacks.
