Loving your affinity for retro synths! I've built a substantial library of early synth and Moog-craze LPs, both the good and the awesomely bad. While I generally gravitate toward veteran and pioneering recordings like Raymond Scott and others, I also have a fondness for the novelty fringes of the synth scene.

For a contemporary take on vintage synths, shall I presume you're familiar with the Moog Cookbook? Formed in 1995 by keyboardists Roger Manning and Brian Kehew, the band both parodied and paid tribute to the novelty "Moogspoitation" music of the late '60s and early '70s. The resulting covers are hilarious. Here are a few silly faves I taped off my college radio station in the 90s:

Offspring - "Come Out and Play"


Green Day - "Basket Case"


Lenny Kravitz - "Are You Gonna Go My Way"
