That's the best track I've heard in a while.
Groan.

 

[Galu]

I raise my glass to that new record!

Back in the 90s there was a radio show where the DJ asked for people to send in recordings of deep purple 'smoke on the water' on odd instruments. The responses included a fork lift truck, an air drill, a dot matrix printer and a hurdy gurdy!

I should find you a copy of the solid wall of "Louis Louis" 100's of versions all played at once.

 

[TheGimp]

Amazing.

I can't imagine how many person hours that took to set up and tune.

Another question is the restricted lifetime of tuning due to evaporation of the liquid inside the glasses

Yeah, it's obvious they were musically trained.

Louie Louie Fest 2003 in Tacoma - YouTube


754 guitarists at once. I cannot believe there is a Louie fest! Wonderful.

Almost as bad as: The Mothers of Invention - Louie Louie (At the Royal Albert Hall in London) - YouTube

I refuse to make judgements on people making music for enjoyment in a communal setting.

 

[scottjoplin]

Good point, I guess you had to be there

Nothing quite as cool as this one then Learn to Fly - Foo Fighters Rockin'1000 Official Video - YouTube

Back to the OT, it's amazing what people can do once they set their minds to it. That must have been so frustrating to setup.

Solved by adding a small amount of oil to the glasses.

10 years ago, (EDIT: OK, eight years ago) I went out and sampled the different sounds of Davisville Yard from the Beltline bridge. I wrote a drum and bass song using the samples... The wheels over the track gaps became the snare. The air valves letting off became the crash, etc...

There's even a part where one train went over a switch while another let it's air out. That makes a "chugga chugga pish" in the song... Not everyone's type of music, and the first time I've posted it anywhere...

Edit: That's not how it ends, but convert an .XM to mp3, and then upload it somewhere... Maybe one day, I'll finish it.
