Via the Analogue Haven mailing list:"Join Jean and Dana tomorrow night at AH as they show why they're such legends in the electronic music field. They'll be spotlighting their brand new release, entitled The Happy Electropop Music Machine as well as saying hello to all of you who stop by.
Jean-Jacques Perrey is a legend, and a pioneer in the popular electronic music field. He was the second musician to ever own a Moog Synthesizer, and one of the first to record with it, way back in 1966. Over the past five decades, Perrey has released many classic MOOG albums, featuring his trademark crazy tape loops and his catchy original melodies. His theme 'Baroque Hoedown' (co- composed with Gershon Kingsley) has been featured as part of Disneyland's much-loved 'Main Street Electrical Parade' for over 30 years. Even today, Perrey's music has been sampled by countless popular Hip-Hop and Rap artists, including Ice T, DJ Premier, Gangstarr, and many others. At age 77, Perrey is still very much active, and still creating 'Music for Smiles and Laughs.'
