What’s new in the moogosphere?

Wednesday, November 25th, 2015

So, we’ve been pretty quiet at the Moogiemedia offices for a while. Behind the scenes, however, there’s been a flurry of activity.

The P.O.P. EP, released on CD at the Klub Kakofanney gig in summer, is now available for download on Bandcamp.

Mainly, though, there’s been lots of work on a new album. It has a photography theme (the planned title is Girls And Film) and is due to be released in Spring 2016. (more…)
