Welcome to the mini Moog factory!

This new digital experience celebrates synthesizer pioneer Bob Moog's legacy and the recent return of our beloved Minimoog Model D.

Drawing inspiration from ‘90s video games and websites, this interactive experience is designed to give you access to the rich history of electronic music through the lens of the Minimoog Model D. Discover the amazing musicians, songs, stories, and sounds that have shaped generations of music through apps and activities inspired by this iconic synthesizer and the artists who have embraced it.

Each facet of 

 was designed to bring visitors a joyful experience behind every digital door that leads to each new section of the site.

We are grateful to have had the opportunity to partner with multi-disciplinary, independently owned design studio 

 to bring this vision to life. Leading the project was Pentagram’s sound and experiential design visionary 

, who we previously collaborated with on the 

 back in 2016 for that year’s Moogfest.

With a passion for Moog synthesizers and the brand's legacy, Yuri was the perfect partner to celebrate the Model D's cultural impact. He and the hardworking teams at Pentagram and Counterpoint helped create an experience that allows visitors all over the world to discover the deep history and sound of the Moog world.



“Working on this web project for the past two years has been an incredible journey, as Moog has always been my top fascination. Their synthesizers' special sound and beautiful design hold a special place in my heart. I still vividly remember our first discussion years ago where we envisioned a web experience that celebrates the Minimoog Model D. Our goal was to craft a tightly interactive and fun experience that would capture the essence of Dr. Bob Moog and his team’s groundbreaking innovation.

Throughout the project, the collaboration has been tight-knit and extremely enjoyable. We have exchanged numerous ideas on how to make the introduction of this beautiful innovation both fun and captivating. I am grateful to everyone involved in this project for their hard work and dedication.

I invite you to visit the website and immerse yourself in the discovery of the Minimoog Model D—a true testament to the innovation and creativity of its creators.”

Sit back and watch the Minimoog in action. Grab your popcorn!

Back when flipping over a 7” inch single was more common, fans often found many a gem waiting for them on the b-side. Such was the case when anyone turned over Electric Light Orchestra’s "Ma-Ma-Ma Belle" in 1974 and found “Daybreaker.”

In those days, ELO tracks mostly started off with keyboardist Richard Tandy, drummer Bev Bevan and bass player Mike de Albuquerque working out the material while guitarist and singer/songwriter Jeff Lynne oversaw the production from the control room. But “Daybreaker,” is an instrumental that not only begins with a Minimoog solo, but has a Tandy-centric arrangement that features a continuing cycle of synth lines throughout.

Watching the performance of “Daybreaker” the band did for the German Rockpalast TV show that year, Tandy’s performance comes off like a mini-Masterclass in how to get the most out of a Model D in a live setting. Four nearly four minutes straight he manages to nail one arpeggio after another, while simultaneously shifting timbres and oscillator settings as required. And though it was relegated to the dark side of the 45 back when it was originally released, the song remained held its slot as a concert opener for several years.
