Mika Vainio 'Lydspor One & Two (Blue TB7 Series)'

Mika visited the Moog Sound-Lab in April 2015. He made one his last known solo studio recordings in the form of two vinyl sized side long pieces. Entitled “Lydspor” - Danish for ‘Soundtrack’. Mika worked almost exclusively with the lab’s Moog Modular System 55.

This UK sound -lab instrument is the sole protoype model (containing several golden filters) of moog’s recent Sold out reverse-engineered edition (55 units only) recreating the 1970’s classic.

On completion of his sessions Mika announced ‘I could work with this machine for the rest of my life….I would need nothing else”.

A second moog session was planned but tragically Mika died in an accident in April 2017, shortly after he had approved the vinyl mastering.
