TechnoPop!

If you ever required proof that music + random mechanical parts + geek intuition = GENIUS! then here, m’laud, is the evidence…

It all began with The Imperial March from Star Wars played on various pieces of computer hardware. For example, a floppy disk…



…and a hard-disk drive…


…then the geek musicians discovered the lyrical qualities of the HP Scanner…


..and this has resulted in the monumental orchestral cacophony that is Queen’s Bohemian Rhapsody played on an Atari 800XL, a Texas Instruments TI-99/4a, an 8 Inch Floppy Disk, a 3.5 inch Harddrive and HP ScanJet 3C…



Geek musicians, I salute you!! I'm off to set fire to the piano
and dig my old Spectrum out of the loft.....

    Well I am pleased to see all that frantic googling that constantly you do at work, is beginning to show such promising productivity...
