Don your antlers, set your yule logs ablaze, stuff your stockings with amanita 'shrooms and reheat your refried beans, it's just about time for Santa to shimmy his jolly corpulence down your chimney! And what better way to welcome this magical interloper than by serving up some of the best yuletide carols this side of the known Universe?
While toiling away on a fresh new album in Santa's sweatshop, Roger was heard to say, “Friends, I am happy to announce my last minute Xmas a...nd New Year's audio gift for 2014, 'The Moog Cookbook: Xmas Recipes Y Mas'.
This is an assorted collection of all the Christmas related music I have had a hand in creating over the last 20 or so years, including selections cooked up with my MCB partner in crime, Uli Nomi, as well as outtakes from a movie score I contributed to several years ago. I had so much fun creating this Nutcracker nuttery that I thought it was about time I made it available to share for some additional holiday cheer. I hope it provides a welcome alternative to all of the usual nauseating Bing Crosby/Andy Williams style holiday classics America has blasting away this time of year.
So here's wishing you the happiest and healthiest of holidays and well into 2015!”
This Christmas, subject your friends' and family's ears to the mellifluous sounds of Brian Kehew and Roger Manning Jr. pushing their synths to the very limits of common decency. Or just give yourself the gift of a unique and timeless collection of holiday tunes! Every dollar spent will help fund the creation and distribution of Roger's forthcoming album!
