YO I really want to get into building and/or modding instruments but it's definitely not at the top of my to-do list to learn.

I'm gonna start the bar a little high with ELECTRONICOS FANTASTICOS a Japanese collective that has a level of electronics wizardry I doubt I'll ever get to. Either way I'd love to build or own literally any of these. I'll let the videos speak for themselves for anyone who hasn't already seen them. Here's my favorites:

Electric Fan Harp:


Factory Fan Bass:


Barcoders:

Woah! That daxophone is wild! I'm surprised these don't have more views! I like the growly noise in the video with 4 of them.
