- Join electronic musician, composer, and producer Danz CM for a special instrument-building and music-making experience at our factory and studio space in Asheville, NC.
To experience all that goes into hand-crafting the iconic Minimoog Model D, Danz had the opportunity to join our production team for a day and build her own analog synthesizer inside the Moog factory.
“Building the Minimoog and seeing the factory in person was a surreal experience,” Danz shared. “It’s hard to describe. I just felt all the history at once. So many great songs were created with these instruments.”
Using the Minimoog Model D she built by hand with our team, Danz created an original track inside the Moog Sound Lab.
“Although the Minimoog is monophonic, I wanted to make chords with it,” she continued. “So, I layered individual Minimoog tracks beforehand, recorded those, and selected a main melody line for the live performance to kind of harmonize with the others, to create the illusion of polyphony. For the live performance I also used external instrument tracks in Ableton to send arpeggios, melodies, and bass via MIDI out to the Grandmother, Sirin, and Minitaur. These I manipulated live in tandem. Pretty much every instrument you hear is Moog!”

One the best experiences of my entire life!
Please release the song 😊
which took longer?
Man what an awesome thing to do!
You Should offer this experience to the public. I would jump on it in a heartbeat. Been waiting for a Moogfest to start up again so I can get a builders pass.
Exactly. If Moogfest can't be organized as a large event, just the builders workshop in Asheville for a group of people, that would be amazing. I would totally come. Still treasure my Spectravox!
Amazing! I would like to see artists like Tycho, Bonobo, Com Truise, etc. doing this stuff! I hope it's a series!!! 😃🤩😍
Absolutely wonderful! You have built yourself an heirloom and your special connection with that instrument will be lifelong.
moog is the best to find best composers
Life is Good!

Beautiful track. I like many things about including the subtle use of percussive noise. Congrats on the new Model D!
Nice video and great track. You can tell she really having fun nerding out building her own Model D. My favorite part was she hammering down the pots 😂
I gasped when she pulled out that hammer
100% would love to do.
