Bob Moog Dies

Bob Moog the pioneer of synthesis has died at the age of 71 from brain cancer. Bob was not only someone that invented fantastic sounding instruments but made them with musicians, not scientists in mind. Without Bob, synthesizer based music may never have happened. His numerous inventions, especially the Minimoog, helped define modern music and will leave a legacy that will live on in his name.

Bob had an immense enthusiasm, which carried on well into his later years. Here is an interview he did with Sound on Sound, just a couple of years ago - Bob Moog interview
