To moog or not to moog

Bugeye's Rock, Pop, Rambles

This week we look at the dark beginnings of post punk band Devo with the US Kent State massacre and celebrate the synth wonders of Wendy Carlos. Our hot new music picks of the week come from the incredibly talented Aimee Steven with her new single, Darling and the exciting hard rock sounds of Hawxx.

We love to hear from our listeners, so if you have a song you want us to hear, a story you want us to cover or just want to say hi, drop us an email at [e-mail] or find us on twitter @bugeyeband of facebook @bugeyemusic.
