Hi Naoki -

"Acid Jazz" was a term made up by a London DJ who in 1985 mixed "acid"-house
music with
brazilian "jazz" music, and thus came "Acid Jazz".

> First of all, I cannot understand "gigs" "moogu" meaning

A "gig" is a nickname for a concert, or a show or a performance. When a band
or a DJ has a performance at a club or concert hall, it's a "gig."

I don't know what "moogu" means, but if you mean "Moog," it is a brand of
analog synthesizer that was popular in the 1970s, and a lot of old 70s funk
(and current Acid-Jazz) use "Moog" synthesizer sounds.

>also, I want to know original place of acid-jazz.

Acid Jazz originated in London, England - but of course it is worldwide now!
