New Minimoog Book From Bjooks
Years in the making, THE MINIMOOG BOOK illustrates more than five decades of electronic music history through the lens of the synthesizer that changed everything.
PRESS ANNOUNCEMENT
Kim Bjørn, founder of Danish independent book publisher Bjooks, has officially revealed that their latest project, THE MINIMOOG BOOK, will be launched later this month on Kickstarter.
An undeniable must-have for any electronic music fan, this comprehensive work chronicles the Minimoog’s entire journey — from its prototypes and the very first Model D #1001 through the Minimoog Voyager models and into the present day.
Readers can expect exclusive interviews and features with legendary musicians like Keith Emerson, Rick Wakeman, Chick Corea, Tony Visconti (David Bowie), George Duke, Anne Dudley (Art of Noise), Bernie Worrell, Devo, Kraftwerk, Air, J Dilla, Gary Numan, and many others — as well as some of today’s most respected songwriters and multi-instrumentalists, such as Greg Kurstin (Adele), Yumiko Ohno (Buffalo Daughter), Mac DeMarco, and more.
THE MINIMOOG BOOK features exquisite and detailed photography — much of it brand new — as well as schematics, historical promotional materials, engineering interviews, illustrated sound patches, and over 70 artist features. It is the perfect coffee table book and keepsake for lovers of synthesizers, music history, illustration, photography, and timeless books of all kinds.
THE MINIMOOG BOOK will be available for pre-order on Kickstarter later in April. Early supporters will get access to special perks and insider info like never-before-seen photos, behind-the-scenes content, a special edition of the book, and more.
