Project Moonbase is the longest-running retrofuturistic music podcast, recorded in Edinburgh, Scotland, with the tagline "The Historic Sound of the Future".

Each show includes 12 full music tracks in pairs, often from the 1960s and 1970s (or modern pastiches of such), using exotic instruments such as the Moog synthesizer, steel drum, theremin, chiptune, kazoo, ukulele, and the voice of Wing.

Notably, there have been four episodes[4][5][6] (7 hours) dedicated to French Moog musician Jean-Jacques Perrey, whom the hosts describe as "the patron saint of the show".

The official website describes DJ Bongoboy as a "genial host, broadcaster, polymath, ruthless leader, de-facto king of the moon, Moon-Pope and space-penguin".

His real name is Robert Baldock, from East Lothian, a J2EE technical developer by day,[22] "space age bachelor by night".

[11] Baldock suffered a stroke in March 2017 (aged 52) leaving him with acute dysphasia and verbal dyspraxia which prevented him from presenting the podcast.

[35] The musical group The Twelve Hour Foundation, who created the theme tune and jingles[36] for Project Moonbase, released a charity EP (with cover artwork by host Andy Fielding) which raised £350 for The Charles Bell Pavilion unit where Baldock was treated.

[45] Rolling Stone magazine's music columnist Colleen Nika wrote "I take head trips with them often – my preferred method of travel of late".

[46] BBC Radio 6 presenter Tom Robinson in his Pick of the Pods podcast in 2011 described Project Moonbase as an "exotic and wonderful musical world".

[47] Mark Barton, editor of Losing Today indie music magazine described the show as "sumptuously populated by all manner of strange sounds, library take outs, lounge lilts and sonic curios".

[48] Musician John Flansburgh of They Might Be Giants recommended Project Moonbase as a "highly entertaining detour into the world of electronic music old, older and sometimes more recent".
