Molchat Doma Live at Moog Sound Lab

Moog Music has released a new artist performance video from the Moog Sound Lab, the studio space and ‘electronic playground’ at its headquarters in Asheville, NC.

The video features Belarusian-turned-LA post-punk trio Molchat Doma, performing Na Dne, At the Bottom, the opening track from their second studio album. The group has a modern take on the classic ‘80s synth-driven sound.

In the performance, the band uses Moog One, Moog Grandmother, and a Novation 49SL MKIII to build the track’s melodic leads and bass.

Molchat Doma band members:

  • Egor Shkutko: vocals
  • Roman Komogortsev: guitar, synths, and drum machine
  • Pavel Kozlov: bass and synths
