Director Hans Fjellestad and producer Ryan Page are halfway through the production of MOOG, a feature-length documentary film that explores the life of electronic musical instrument pioneer Robert Moog. The film is currently shooting on location in North Carolina, New York, Los Angeles, Tokyo and London. Page is finalizing a summer 2004 theatrical and soundtrack release.
Fjellestad said, “I'm very much focused on Bob's ideas about creativity, interactivity, spirituality and the raft of stories in the man's head. This is very much an ‘in Bob's own words’ piece.”
Artists such as Stereolab, The Neptunes, Devo, Meat Beat Manifesto, Tortoise, DJ Spooky, The Cure, Money Mark, Luke Vibert, 33, the Album Leaf, Pete Devriese, Bostich, Charlie Clouser, Baiyon, Suzanne Ciani, Electric Skychurch and others are contributing original music produced on Moog instruments for the film's soundtrack.
