NerdPop // Utilizing The Tools Of Our Electronic Time
Every day we're surrounded by tools & gadgets & pop culture refuse. (Think of all the things you own or interact with that beep & click & blink & sing.) I think an important avenue of music creation at the moment involves exploring these alternate instruments & sound creators. This video is an excellent example.
With a little bit o' creative/videographical know-how & a couple bags of "novelty" instruments, these quirky Englishmen have made something that's funny, entertaining & musically legitimate.
Of note: Unlike many in their field, Mr. Domino & his cohort use totally stock instruments with no effects, hardware/software hacks, mods, circuit bends etc.
Regardless of your instrument or chosen path, remember that there will always be new ways to be creative.
