Happy new year everyone! We wish you a creative and fruitful 2025 ✨🎶🪩🎚

As we are approaching the end of the year, here is our little selection of some of the most memorable techno live sets of 2024.

Who are you hoping to see live in 2025?

No one can escape Christmas tunes, but here's a Christmas album you can actually indulge in guilt-free! Switched On Santa by Sy Mann is a collection of 13 Christmas tunes rendered on the Moog synth, and it’s even got legendary synth composer Jean Jacques Perrey on the cover wearing a Santa suit.

From the liner notes:

In this album Sy takes the Moog Synthesizer and creates today’s electronic Christmas tree out of this new musical wonder. The Moog, a strange machine of lights, cords, inputs and outputs enters the festive world of the merriest season of all. It’s a wonderful gift for today’s caroleers. Sy Mann giftwraps all your Christmas favorites in the most exciting musical sound, and puts them under your glittering tree. Gift tagged to read “Merry Christmas from The Moog!”

Moogy Christmas! 🎄

A few interesting 2024 electronic music facts, the future of electronic music is bright!

Analogue microtonal ambient drone machine Solar 42, by Elta Music.

The instrument was inspired by early electronic musical instruments of the 1920s and 1950s, notably Leo Theremin's «Harmonium» instrument, as well as science fiction film soundtracks.

A lesser known synthesizer manufacturer, Elta Music is based in Riga, Latvia. Founded in Moscow in 2017 by Ukrainian musician Arseniy Tokarev, Elta Music has taken up the torch of the Polivoks synth legacy, arguably the most popular and well-known Soviet synthesizer in the West.

Buchla Music Easel!

Originally released in 1973 in a few dozen copies, the Music Easel is one of the earliest portable devices of its kind. It revolutionized music creation by offering a comprehensive range of musical dimensions: timbre, melody, rhythm, and time. These dimensions were no longer dictated by acoustics and physical materials, but by signals and voltage.

And let's not even talk about the awesome design of the 50th anniversary edition 💙❤️💛

We're 𝒏𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒓 out of mastering memes..

The good old designs of the Korg Electribes, ESX-1 and EMX-1 ❤️💙

Did you know that the launch party for the product in 1999 was announced with a recorded CD invitation and was featured in Entertainment Weekly magazine as one of the best party invitations of the year?

25 years later, they don't exactly look the same anymore. Are you more a fan of the retro or the modern look?
