Why even listen to Klingon if it isn't punky or acidic? (pixelfed.social)

Moog? Is Worf related to Quark?

There's a t shirt of this too

I think the moog is a synthesizer....

[–] Deebster@programming.dev 15 points 11 months ago

Yup, they made the first commercial synthesizer. Moog rhymes with Vogue, despite what you might think from the spelling.

It was the first commercial synthesizer and established the analog synthesizer concept.

If you replicate a Moog does that make it a synth synth?

[–] negativenull@startrek.website 2 points 11 months ago

That's like dividing by zero

Not operatic at all!

Today is a good day to tune your oscillators.

I remembered this catchy d'n'b track from Coldcut&Qemists: Atomic Moog.

[–] negativenull@startrek.website 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

That's actually a great song! Old-school D'n'B was awesome.

[–] andrew_bidlaw@sh.itjust.works 1 points 11 months ago

Is it oldschool and 'was' already? Seems like I've missed the mark when I got old.

Anyway, here's another one, both were featured in the co-op racing game Blur: https://sh.itjust.works/post/10285441
