INSTRUMENT O’ THE WEEK
This week we’ll look at the Beep-It optical theremin, designed and sold by Michael Una.

The Beep-It is truly a fantastic theremin and unfortunately Michael is currently sold out, but you can purchase a Beep-It of your own for only $30.

Ok, Finally got in the mood again. Here are some good ones. Now, people, don’t be afraid to look these bands up and go to their show when they visit your town. Please do so.
Ok, My favorite for this edition is first up. I didn’t find it through PF like this feature post is named [...]

I read pitchfork. It’s pretty much my only source to find new music now-a-days. I’ve decided to create a regular feature out of shit that I really like at the particular time I write. Here’s the first installment.
First up is Squarepusher. It’s pretty rad.

Via handler from IRC, I present to you the best music video ever. Made by Jan Terri in ‘93, and I believe it. I don’t even know. The title of the song is Losing You from the ablum, Losing You.

There’s one more video after the fold and more on youtube.

I want this sooo bad. I can’t wait to get my hads on something like this. Not sure when, or even if, it comes out.

Ladies and gentlemen, with the election finally over, we can now worry about more important things:

INSTRUMENT O’ THE WEEK

Hello, my friends. It’s Tuesday, and you know what that means:
INSTRUMENT - OF - THE WEEK
This week we have information on the Axis 64 Midi Controller from C-thru-music. The keyboard on this controller is unique. The surface is covered with 192 keys that play 64 different notes. The keys are arranged in such a way [...]

Hey. I know these aren’t actually musical instruments. These are sequencers. Tangible hardware sequencers.

So why am I printing this? Because YOU try to find a new instrument every week. That’s what I thought.

What? You say we’ve never even covered the didgeridoo or the french horn? I don’t care. If you want to write IOTW, you’re more than welcome to. Until then, all you’re going to get are mixers, sequencers, and midi-directed microwaves. Asshole.
