Dueling Banjos, Man Vs Machine!
By tyler on Oct 24, 2008 in Bands/Musicians, Homemade/DIY, Traditional
I’d like to warm things up here at the Oddstrument. Without further ado, may I present Stuart, an amazing musician and singer, playing his equally amazing Kazookeylele (a mini grand piano/ukulele/kazoo) vs. the WaldFlöte.
This crazy fellow lives in Edinburgh, UK.
The WaldFlöte is a computer controlled MIDI retrofit of a 1890’s era 16 foot pipe organ. “It converts MIDI input into solenoid drive to directly press the keys on one of the manuals - there is no permanent modification to the organ.” It resides in Edinburgh, UK. Check out the project’s schematics.
And now more Kazookeylele! 
Thanks for the tip Abram

I think this is my favorite musical instrument. So much going on, in such a tiny space.

Yeah, as an instrument inventor myself, I’m rarely really excited about new instruments that people make. But the combination of ingenuity and a sense of humor in this guy’s stuff is really cool.

This would be an easy instrument to make. The piano he used is the Schoenhut 18 key mini grand, and probably a cheap ukulele. and a kazoo
