‘Shift into The Rogue’ by Pier Bucci was released in digital and vinyl formats on
February 10, 2023. It is available on Bandcamp, digital outlets, and in select
record shops worldwide.

‘Shift into The Rogue’ presents two pieces from an unreleased album Pier Bucci
recorded using only one synthesizer for all parts of the entire project – his longtime
companion, the Moog Rogue.

Combining his unique musical and rhythmic sense, love for alternative electronic
music from the 90’s (particularly sounds coming out on WARP Records at the time),
and the technical abilities gained from years in the studio, Pier has crafted
emotional, groovy, raw yet nuanced works – inspired by ‘the analogue, alternative,
positive, very beautiful music from that time’.

The result is a masterwork, and a testament to the artistic and technical prowess of
this maestro of electronic music.

‘After 25 years of having this Moog in the studio, I decided to celebrate it’s 25 years
with me by doing an album only using the Moog Rogue. And that was the challenge
for me. To do an EP, an album, using only one instrument.

Why the Rogue? Why analogue? Well, it’s a little keyboard. Very simple. Very, very
simple. But – and I don’t know how – it is emotional. I wanted to create emotions,
and I don’t know.. it was giving me a nice feeling, to be able to make every sound
with this Moog. – Pier Bucci
