Like last year, Adam will be demoing all the latest Moog gear, playing at the booth throughout the day, from April 1st through April 4th. Adam will be joined by master guitarist and long-time friend Andre Cholmondeley (the leader of Project Object) who will be playing the new AMAZING Moog guitar. If any of you are in Germany please swing by the booth and say "Hello!" Also, more Moog-related news, there is a picture of (and a quote from) Adam in the latest Moog catalog! Pretty cool!

GERMANY AND AUSTRIA DIG BRAVE NEW WORLD!!

Well folks, Brave New World returns once again triumphantly from another trail-blazing European tour, including a historical gig at Joe Zawinul's Birdland in Vienna and a successful fact-finding mission in Dresden! We did a special Brave New World Workshop at the music school in Hannover, where we revealed some of our trade secrets to a closed audience of musician's only (goverment officials and the press were not allowed). We also performed at a club in Hannover with Lorenz Hargassner on sax, covering for Aaron on that gig and doing a great job. (Aaron caught up with us in Vienna; he's a busy guy).


BNW in Vienna: Adam, Abe, Freddy, Aaron & Mitch

In addition to working in some new material we also did a burning cover of Jeff Beck's "Scatterbrain." We played some great gigs in Nurnberg, Regensburg, Erfurt and Passau, but the tour got cut short due to a flaky promoter in Dresden. In any event, we had fun killing the last day hanging out at our road manager Alex Platz's house, playing around with PhotoBooth on Abe's laptop and watching "Salad Fingers" on YouTube.

NEW DRUMMER:
ABE FOGLE!!!

We are pleased to announce our new drummer, Abe Fogle. Abe has played with many great artists, including Rob Thomas (from Matchbox 20), Alex Bugnon, Najee and a bunch of others. I first played with Abe a long time ago on a European tour with saxophonist Kenny Garrett. Abe is a great combination of groove and chops, and he's a very creative drummer. He's truly funky, but he also digs prog-rock. That makes him the perfect drummer for me!

ADAM WITH MOOG AT FRANKFURT MUSIKMESSE
click here to visit Frankfurt Musikmesse

Adam has been asked by Moog Music to perform and demonstrate Moog Products at this years Frankfurt Musikmesse in Germany, from March 12 -15. The Musikmesse is like the European equivalent of the NAMM show, except it's considered to be a little more cutting edge and experimental. Adam will be playing the Voyager (of course!), the Little Phatty, some of the Mooger Fooger effects boxes, and the ALL NEW "Old School" Voyager. The "Old School" is a PURELY analog instrument, not a digital bone in it's body. No digital memory, no nothing. Just a bunch of wood, metal and wires. A real Warrior Synth! Yeah! Adam is very excited and honored to be involved with Moog and to be demonstrating such hip stuff.



Listen to Mighty Moog (MP3)

This entire track is comprised of sounds generated by the Minimoog Voyager only, with the exception of the percussion part. Adam created this little ditty as a fun exercise, and Moog put it up on their MySpace page.

NEW EP IN THE WORKS!!

Brave New World is planning to go into the studio very soon to record some smoldering new tracks for an exciting new EP which will be powerful, hard hitting, groovin, slammin and jammin! We are going to record at Avatar Studios, one of the best studios in the world and the recording locale of previous BNW classics, such as "Manifesto." We have a group of investors that are helping us out. Sort of like "Cleaver" in the Sopranos. Regarding the EP format: we figured in this age of iPods and downloads that recording a New Statement Now is more important than hacking away forever trying to finish a 70 minute CD. New tunes planned for the recording include Big Cheese, Tuesday, Equation and more. Look for a late Spring early Summer release!! Quick, somebody bring me an intake manifold and a bucket of red chicken jello! Hack! Koff!

MILES FROM INDIA PROJECT

Produced by Bob Belden, Adam co-produced and performed on some of the tracks on this exciting new double CD concept album featuring renowned Indian musicians collaborating with Miles alumni. The Miles alumni include John McLaughlin, Chick Corea, Ron Carter, Jimmy Cobb, Lenny White, Mike Stern, Pete Cosey, Michael Henderson, Benny Reitveld, Vince Wilburn, Robert Irving and many others! The Indian musicians are all exceptional, but there is one track, "Ife (fast)," where Adam plays some Minimoog alongside this amazing female violinist, Kala Ramnath, that is a particular favorite. Wow. There will be a few select performances with some version of this project in New York and L.A. Adam will be performing with the Miles From India project at Town Hall in New York City on May 9th, 2008." The album will be released in April.
