new laser instrument unleashes the musical creativity that's harbored in every soul.

this thing makes me angry for some reason

way too much work to pretend to make bad music

I think we need a thread named that

Kaos Pad Thai

Ten-snore-e-on

Is that Evan Handler?

makes me wanna listen to "born slippy"

this is the best news ever

The computer in the foreground at :42 says BEATNIK BLUES on it.

Quiet Reverie guy is my favourite.

What's the meaning of More Cowbell!?

"new"

I saw this at 3PC0T 10 years ago doggggggs

The serious dude about 52 seconds in who is really into his phil collins drumfills is awesome!

For some reason I thought this was going to be about some new surgery that made people more musical.

Like lasering out the non-musical parts of the brain or something.

Jam Session!

any chance we could see one of these on the next Mtn Ghotes album?

this whole thing looks so much like a Tim and Eric sketch

These people make the Barenaked Ladies look totally unretarded.

OTM but it needs a voiceover. Also great is the supportive father who's okay and sort of amused that his son doesn't know what the fuck he's doing.

this reminds me of the prepared theremin loaded w/ MIDI-type instrument sounds that Massimo Simonini played at the High Zero festival last year, except like 10,000 times dorkier.

so are not there a thousand witty midi note triggers out there already?

be a hero

With the beamz, there should be no performance anxiety at all because — whichever beam you break, in whatever sequence — your music is guaranteed to be harmonious. All discordant chords and sour notes have been programmed out so everyone plays great.

well that takes the fun out of it

it's like anti-noise. it's racist against noise. it's noisist.

harmonist?

just seems like something wasteless to buy. and probably really annoying to set to specific notes/modulations/ etc etc.

Sounds like a challenge to me. (xps)

$600

We decided he looks like Johnny Cage, so I give you:

A+++++++++++++++, 10/10, etc.

To be fair this looks like it would feel really cool to play

This is all a bit Star Trek TNG.

(Only rubbish, obvs)

Guy on the right in "Jam Session" is my hero.

omg johnny cage

I thought it was going to be one of these :(

Those sunglasses cost me %500

I mean $500

how long before this shows up on a polow da don track

no you do not xp lol

So wait a minute, you're just triggering the next note in a pre-arranged sequence every time you break the beam? Like playing a piano with only one key? This is like something off "Idiocracy".

anyone know if this is compatible with ableton live 7.0 LE running on vista with a quad core intel cpu? the guys on the phone at QVC said they didn't know. :(

This is so fucking shit, and hasn't something like this existed for ages anyway?

I'm going to write a symphony for 40 of these and it will be the greatest artistic endeavor in the history of mankind.

I will call it Symphony No. 4, ("Quiet Reverie") in C#m, Op. 72

Here's what you'll look like while playing it:

Yeah, that's me in the video, I am practicing a sexual maneuver which I like to call "Jam Session."

I've watched this about eight times now. We should have a poll to decide which is the best segment. Kinda feeling "Be a one-man rock band" although "quiet reverie" and "jam session" are gaining ground.

yes poll is needed. I'd probably go with Jam session thanks to the tagging back and forth.

No fantastic family fun, no credibility.

this looks like a pile of shit...

leon theremin would turn in his grave

I'm not a musician, but this offends me deeply.

Hey, people spend real time learning to play guitar hero.

You can suck at patty-cake and still be an instant master of this POS.

Jeez haterz, stop taking it so seriously. It's a comedy goldmine!

hating dumb-looking goons on the internet is SERIOUS BUSINESS!

quiet reverie = coolest guy ever.

that little rayden jumping up and down with the guitar is some kind of miracle sent from god up above

lmfao @ cowbell

It even has a preset called "Classique" FFS. And the sound doesn't match up - how is triggering samples of people going "RAWRARAROAWRA" in any way "Quiet Reverie"? COWBELL COWBELL COWBELL AARRRGGGHH!!!

Because it's a fucking toy, no better than one of those kid's "guitars" with buttons that play samples.

er the link above is a parody...

Well with this thing there's a very fine line between parody and reality...

Still angry about this FIVE years later. But at least Flo Rida can collaborate on a track with anyone now oh wait he already does.

lmao @ flo rida

This shit costs TWO HUNDRED DOLLARS

If there was some crossover deal between this and Beats headphones, it's be the ultimate in '$$$ for absolute crap'.

there's a limmy's show episode that begins with one of these

loooooooool

"come try my beamz!"

love the dude at the end who picks it up and air guitars/scratches.

no less ridiculous
