Remember the Drumbuddy?
It looks like one will be up for auction on Jan 26th. I'm guessing this is indeed for 2008 as there is an update for 2007 on this site. You can read more about the Drumbuddy there, including more images of the 2007 Drumbuddy's, but DO NOT miss the official Drumbuddy site.
Austin Powers impersonation: Yeah... Baby. And don't miss the video (click on the image and watch it through).
snip:
"Only 10 Drum Buddies were made - all in New Orleans, Louisiana - and the one for sale (in the photo above) is serial #1. It is also the instrument which was originally intended to belong to Quintron. He has decided to let this one go and give 10% of all profits to the New Orleans Musician's clinic. The starting price is $5000 and the ebay auction will begin on Saturday, Jan. 26th @ 11:59pm and end on Tuesday, Feb 5th (Mardi Gras day) @ 11:59pm All 10 of the Drum Buddies except this one at FRESH KILLS have been spoken for -mostly by New Orleans Swamp Tech DJs. New York City musician Laurie Anderson has acquired one for her band as well as Los Angeles guitarist Nels Cline - famed improve music guru and latest member of the band Wilco."
What a concept! Supercool! (And a great demo.)
ReplyDeleteSuperb!
ReplyDeleteI'm surprised this didn't spin out of Bleep Labs. (pun intended) Reminds me of 4 Thingamagoops worshiping a lightbulb. Definitely unique.
ReplyDeleteMr Quintron, is the masternind behind the drumbuddy design. (of one man electric organ/ drum machine band fame- kinda like taking jerry lewis and cramming him into Mark Mothersbaughs head!)His wife misses Pussycat, opens his shows with a black light puppet show!
ReplyDeleteI had a chance to open up for him at a local coffee shop with my friends band, Agent Nova and the exploding Jazz Nebula band. I played a big briar Theremin and also dropped a hydrophone (underwater microphone) into the coffee shops aquarium, ran that through a Korg processor.
Needles to say, as cool as the aquarium was, the drum buddy kicked ass!
