About This Item
2016 album from award-winning English pianist and composer explores the vast sonic possibilities of voltage-controlled oscillators. Moogmemory follows the critical success of Radioland Radio-Activity Revisited with Franck Vigroux and video artist Antoine Schmitt. Matthew Bourne has previously worked with artists as diverse as John Zorn, Annette Peacock, Nils Frahm, Nostalgia 77, Amon Tobin and Broadway Project. “I first met Matthew Bourne, a prodigious improvising pianist, who was fascinating to watch as he took that conventional instrument ‘off road’ in an emotional sweat. Post-gig, and still wild-eyed, he made a beeline for me, having heard that I also owned a Memorymoog. Matt was keen to compare notes, and to discuss the fact that he was having the Lintronics Advanced Memorymoog (LAMM) conversion done to his. I immediately thought that Matt was insane. Some years later, moogmemory is Matt’s paean to this living, breathing machine. No other instruments are used on the Album Tracks 1. Somewhere I Have Never Travelled (For Coral Evans) 2. Alex 3.
