Transform Everyday Things Into Musical Instruments With MOGEES

Mogees (pronounced like emojis without the e) are a wacky new way to turn any object that can be struck into a MIDI controller.

As Editor-in-Chief of Gear Gods, I've been feeding your sick instrument fetishism and trying unsuccessfully to hide my own since 2013. I studied music on both coasts (Berklee and SSU) and now I'm just trying to put my degree to some use. That's a music degree, not an English one. I'm sure you noticed.
