Kingsley
Kingsley is a name of at least two acts:
1) A band the formed in late 2007, an alternative to traditional rock n roll, featuring heavy electronic melodies, danceable beats and intense vocals - a combination that makes heads nod and feet move.
Comprising Brandon Sweeney (vocals/guitars), Stephen Limbaugh (keyboards), Ian Schaeffer (bass), and the Italian-born Nadir Maraschin (drums), Kingsley has accomplished much in the time they have been together, including inking an indy-deal after being a band for only 5 months.

@Anna Backman Hm, it's hard to tell from just the YouTube videos, but putting on proper headphones helps. The audio quality differs widely: this video is mono and slightly muffled, the video you linked sounds pristine (and stereo), and some other videos I found sit somewhere in the middle (with clean sound but noticeable artefacts from compression, presumably present before uploading to YouTube). I don't think this is a remix – at most the other version you found could be a remaster. (However, there is no evidence of an existing remaster – at least the entry for "Music to Moog By" on discogs reports that none of the reissues (RE) was clearly marked as remastered (RM). See [1], [2].)
I think the difference is due to the way this video found its way to the internet: presumably it was first recorded on some analogue medium (video cassette?) and then converted to digital by a consumer. For the other versions, the audio was converted to digital by the record company for the CD re-release (which I guess already introduces a new round of post-production), and then transferred further in the digital realm. But this is all speculation.
TL;DR: no idea! ;-)

@scor pion Gershon Kingsley is the composer of this melody. Do you know if he was part of the Hot Butter record?

Imaging hearing this in 1969... must have been like hearing something from another planet

Switched on Bach was even more impressive and also done on a Moog - baroque music on a monophonic synthesiser, one track at a time. Apparently Wendy Carlos spent something like 1,000 hours in a studio on Moog's time putting that together.

@burteriksson Kingsley lo hiso primero pre EDM...no se vería algo igual hasta 1977 con Giorgio Moroder y I Feel Love y el nacimiento del EDM la cual fue la evolución más fiel de la Tape Músic de diversos países y la electrónica de Berlin (Tangerine Dream, Klaus Schulze, Vangelis).

The ‘Forbidden Planet’ score (film released 1956) laid the groundwork for synthesiser music - that really was from another world!
