The Evolution of Remix Culture [YouTube]

Kudos to Greig, a dude I know, for his amazing Theremin/Rock Band crossover. Almost 100,000 views on YouTube so far.

Why? BECAUSE HE CAN.

Oh, and with a neural interface too…

Be sure to visit the videos’ homepages on YouTube to get the details on what he’s doing.

Although the churches in your native Switzerland may not approve of your lyrics, or your female companion:

“Come and meet my son in law, David Nixon, will you, and the Mellotron.”

A wonderful British Pathe short film:

I just love the interplay between these guys. Eric Robinson’s feigned ignorance. And David’s flourish at the end in time to the music is sublime.

As for Jeff Unwin… well, Jeff, no-one likes a smart-arse.

Mellotron: recommended for Viennese Waltzes and music to accompany scenes from Thunderbirds.

I could watch this video all day.
