TOPS | Colder & Closer | Moog Sound Lab

[@Calverhall]

So pleased to see TOPS at the beginning of 2024. They are such a great group!

[@jayrey7]

I love Moog sounds. 😍

[@isaiahchacon2878]

What a pleasant surprise to see Tops on the Moog channel. Thank you so much!

[@ThomasBjerring]

Please never stop playing music, Tops! I love everything you do! Jane’s voice alongside that lush moog pad.. omg

[@jakobervorhood]

the perfect song to play and perform in the moog lab

[@HustonSingletary]

You had me at 2:42 with the Syn Snare hit. Great song and performance. Vocals layered with those synth washes are amazing!

[@connorriley7117]

Tops is so good and even better live

[@DoctorRevers]

Well now I have a new band to check out. 🍻

[@Infinite_AM]

Tops has been my #1 most listened to band on Spotify for 4 years in a row

[@Psychoma99]

They're sick bro, I've seen them twice

[@adamcurrier9899]

Me too 😅

[@patrickmiller2579]

Try their album "sugar at the gate"! I bought that CD on a whim at a record shop a couple years ago and it was an excellent decision!

[@agaglia9]

Love TOPS! What a great feature, this is awesome 🔥

[@cosmicdrone5270]

One of my recent favorites! Saw them live in Norforlk, VA, and they were awesome!

[@deathkampdrone]

Best pop act out there today. Every song is sooo catchy. Nice rendition, guys!

[@patrickmiller2579]

So cool that TOPS got to do a sound lab session :) Love them

[@bassfingers]

A cool groove, beautiful, ethereal vocals and a s*** ton of Moogs. Feels like Summer has come early this year. Thank you. ✌️❤️

[@jeffreygillispie8780]

This band is genius at catchy dream pop grooves

[@22goats87]

Great song, unfamiliar with Tops. Thanks for sharing. Glad to see some Moog Sound Labs! Helped shoot a couple with my friend Paul back around 2010 (Kylesa, Neon Indian and the Filtatron, a couple others can’t remember). Looks like the lab has been updated!

[@beartrona6621]

This is so clean and pleasant. Never hear of em but im a fan.

[@TheCALMInstitute]

One of my favorite bands! ❤

[@AndreCholmondeley]

Nice chilly 80s vibe. Cocteau Twins and Yaz comes to mind. In a good way!!!

[@Individual_two]

Very nice! The smooth, swirling Moog One blended beautiful with the singers lovely voice. Well done.

[@partymarty6969]

My favorite Moog Sound Lab thus far! 🎶

[@cesaresanmartino]

BEATIFUL, ETHEREAL SONG, LOVED IT

[@LauraTVK2023]

I love this Moog Sound Lab sessions. Cheers for this one, yet another great one.

[@mamojula]

What a lovely sound! Thanx for sharing.❤

[@DannyJustiniano]

Wow! Fresh take on this song!

[@larswillsen]

I had some pretty hot Moogs back in the 80s, love it 🙂

[@chokeychikenmz]

So chill and perfect. Did not expect TOPS here :)

[@N-trepid1]

Oh that's a Jam! Man those Moogs sound so sweet along with those killer vocals. Wonder what that guitar is driving, That tune sticks in your head. Nicely done!

[@wadehathawaymusic]

More pop-ish than i usually listen to, but i really enjoyed it and will check out some of Tops material. Nice to see Moog outside of their box a bit .

[@damianradulovic1319]

i love tops so much its wild

[@Housemusicsouldierz]

A performance full of beautiful Moog sounds, well done!

[@jean-christophegalland9274]

So inspiring! Thanks!!!

[@JimPositivity]

Love TOPS! ❤

[@rareform6747]

Magic 💫

[@marklholloway]

With the inMusic takeover of Moog I hope they will continue creating these videos. It's the last pure essence we have of Moog.

[@user-iv6yy4ss7r]

Agree

[@dtrain5171]

Tops is tops.

[@rekindle]

Great band with several great albums, good to see them at Moog!

[@Clintthecoolguy]

Phenomenal!

[@davidwbartz]

Outstanding! Two questions: 1) What is the guitarist using to convert guitar to (what I assume to be) MIDI, and 2) Where can I get their music!

[@MoogSynthesizers]

1) The guitar is triggering the sounds of the Moog Grandmother using a Fishman MIDI pickup paired with a Kenton USB MIDI host. 2) You can find more of TOPS here: www.tttopsss.com/ :-)

[@karn3094]

And the drum into the subharmonicon at 2:44!?

[@MoogSynthesizers]

The Moog Drum (discontinued, but still beloved) is actually triggering the Minimoog Model D to create that Disco Tom/zap sound!

[@PanteraRossa]

Yaaaaay I was beginning to fear the band was on break since Marci and Jane and David all released solo projects. Btw, Marci's record is co-produced and written with David and it's literally full of bangers. Check it out!

[@aleclienhard]

This made my ears so happy

[@nik_hffmnn]

Amazing. Can someone tell me what he had going on over his guitar? Sounds so sick

[@vandann]

What a perfomance! Funny, i find this version better than the official studio version. Her voice (the voices) in the refrain is/are so silk and beautiful, awesome mixing. Can anyone tell me, the hihats & snare sounds coming from dfam? Has someone a tutorial how to setup the dfam for that? @moog, you should put all these awesome "moog sound lab" performances on a vinyl series for full quality, like "moog sound lab vol. 1" etc. Instant buy.

[@zipnone1996]

Great!

[@rafoz0]

Que coisa mais linda ❤

[@dodgingrain3695]

Moogs still in business? lol, nice bass line through, smooth vocals and nice pads.

[@AdrianBond]

Awesome.

[@jamescoderre9595]

Good stuff, 👍

[@Timbrrrdoodle]

This is good. 👍

[@johnmichaelrichards]

I liked the original but I absolutely love this new version.

[@Jamooshoe]

If the guitar at the start controlling a synth? If so, can someone please explain how? Thanks :)

[@MoogSynthesizers]

The guitarist is using a Fishman MIDI pickup and a Kenton MIDI USB host to trigger the Moog Grandmother!

[@kevinmbs]

Eu amo tanto

[@xotjtox]

Хорошие басы!

[@VioletPrism]

So top

[@Tarbash7364]

Omg this woman should be in the Trance scene working with BIG artists like Armin, Corsten and Schulz. Wow what a voice‼️😎

[@karn3094]

WOW

[@Chikeko_Lee]

Круто ❤

[@习包子8964]

谢谢你

[@ladc8960]

😮

[@ninnyhammer77]

What vocal mics are those? I at first thought sm7b but the body looks too long?

[@user-iv6yy4ss7r]

This is moog. Not digital vsti

[@taufiqhariyadi]

[@Unison_Detune]

Beautiful sounds Moogywoogy. Lovely voice but I would prefer promotion of synth artists. This version is many times better than all the versions of this track on Spotify. Synths not only sound beautiful but their vibrancy is emotionally uplifting and counters negative feelings and depression. I am not joking. You guys have the funds to get a paper to prove this and it would make sound business sense too.

[@musickitten88]

It sounds like she's singing "...how, how how the young keep hoarding your clothes." 😔 It's official - I'm getting old.

[@kosmikmusa]

Sisters?

[@OfficialRDayz]

TOPS finally getting some well deserved recognition🤍
