Music Thing on the Word Magazine podcast

You can now read my feature on why all records sound the same from Word Magazine. You all get a credit at the end of the piece, of course. If you're a real glutton for half-baked opinions, you can also listen to my appearance on the Word Podcast.

eBay of the day: Coldplay's vintage drum machine collection. Who knew?

eBay item 220202883601 is, according to the listing, an EMU SP1200 drum machine from Coldplay's own studio. The Coldplay studio clearance has a few of other nice bits and pieces, including a Korg Mono Poly, an Oberheim DX and a Jupiter 8. If you're just a crazed Coldplay fan, there's some crappy cheap monitors for £38...

Which musical instrument will make me happiest?

Now it starts to get interesting (thank you for your patience). In the survey, I asked which instruments you can play "well enough to enjoy it", and which one of those instruments makes you happiest right now.
The most popular instrument was synth, followed by guitar. The graph above shows which instruments make people the happiest*. And the winner, overwhelmingly, is the humble guitar.

Is that surprising? I'm slightly surprised, but also comforted, that a geeky, gadget obsessed, synth-twiddling group like us still really, really, like playing guitars. I also feel really sorry for all you dissatisfied singers...

*It's the percentage of people who said they play a particular instrument, who then went on to say it made them happiest. So, if only one person played bass, and it made them happiest, it would score 100%. If you're better at stats than me and would like to see the raw data, get in touch and I'll pass it along.

Which instruments do Music Thing readers play?

No huge surprises here. Everyone's a synth twiddler, not that many are high-end musical programming language fans. I wonder if 'recording studio' and 'low geek' should be merged - they're both really just general recording.

'Something else' bought a few surprises: The most popular choices were, in order: Saxophone, banjo, mandolin, flute, harmonica, trombone, clarinet, violin, theremin, cello, melodica, accordion, ukelele, recorder, lap/pedal steel, circuit bending, kazoo, tuba, didgeridoo, turntable, Gameboy. Less popular suggestions included "Amiga 500 Protracker", "ebowed toaster oven rack", "Fart hands", "Mechanical monk", and two LOLlers suggested "Skin flute".

Anonymous comments turned off

Sorry, but some Polish douchebag has been depositing so much spam in the comments that I'm going to have to turn off the anonymous comments for a bit...

Toumani Diabate teaches you how to play the kora

Here's a wonderful clip of Toumani Diabate making kora playing look really easy. If that's inspired you to get started, start training, because you need to play football to play the Kora. (via Word Magazine, in whose March issue you can read a piece I wrote inspired by your comments on this post)

Can Music Thing readers read music?

So, the survey was a big success - 2,200 replies in a week. Thank you very much.
There are a few really interesting results which I'm checking at the moment, but first of all... Can you read music? 578 of you can, 1,124 of you can 'sort of', and 419 can't at all.

The results for individual instruments are interesting. These results are based on answers to the question: "Which 'instrument' makes you happiest right now?"

The Music Thing 'Which instruments can you play?' survey of 2008

I've been playing piano a bit recently, and thinking about how bad I am at it. Using the wondrous new Google Forms system, I thought I'd find out how you feel. I'm off to Cornwall for a week, so results and hopefully many graphs next week.


UPDATE: Sunday 24th January - thank you for the 2,200 replies. The survey is now closed. Results soon.

The awesome Lemur action starts at 2:52 - obviously they're just miming with the 'look cool' preset, but think of it as a stylised version of What are Daft Punk actually playing inside their pyramid?". More about the Lemur here. (Thanks, Raffael from Switzerland)

Show me your homemade instruments

There are many wonders in 276 responses to the challenge 'Show me your homemade instruments'. My favourite is this chap whose Dad bolted together a Vox Continental and a guitar, but there's a lot more: Sxip Shirey plays bowls with marbles, terrifying grinding car guitar thing, strange tiny bass guitar, a circuit bent Buddha Machine, a beautiful-looking touchpad-based homemade synth and this bonkers disc reverb box. There's a lot more - leave links to goodness in the comments. (Thanks, Gareth)

Uwe Steger presents the strangest accordion video you will see today

How I sneered at the Roland V-Accordion when it was first launched. Now I've seen this video of long-haired accordion maestro Uwe Steger promoting MIDI accordion accessories created by some guy. Accordion + vocoder + pitch shift = a winning combination. (Thanks, Moonie)

Less-Lethal: Album as non-lethal weapon

Less-Lethal Vol 1 is a compilation of tracks inspired by the idea of using music (or sound, at least) as a form of torture... "Particularly the sheer lack of imagination on the part of military experts who resort to the use of pop music as a weapon, by playing it back for painfully long periods of time at very high volumes." Tragically, I can't find any sound clips online, so you'll just have to imagine what it sounds like. (Thanks AR)
