A Piano of Six iPhones

Yann Tiersen used 6 iPhones to complete a piano keyboard (or almost):

And used them to play (after having lots of trouble receiving calls and stuff) Comptine D’un Autre Ete: L’apres from Amélie (Le Fabuleux Destin d’Amélie Poulain) soundtrack.
Awesome! The piano sounds are truly impressive for a cellphone.

MIDI Marimba

This automated marimba was made by Larry Cotton.

Still needs some automated drums and other instruments to sound less “demo play from 80′s Casio keyboard” or something, but still pretty nice!

Lady Gaga, Jojo, Rihanna, Fergie and Akon – Forró Style

Forró is a music style from northeastern Brazilian states.
It’s a traditional style commonly related to smaller rural (oftenly poor) towns, and was made basically for dancing.
Think cultural festivals made from time to time where people gather together on a dance floor in the open.
It’s very different from our world famous Carnaval, since it happens in winter time.
Also related to older people and culture, since the music style is slowly dying due to the globalization process.

BUT Brazil still has tons of rural towns and areas, and artists that are adapting to modern styles.
Here we have bits of musics from Lady Gaga, Jojo, Rihanna, Fergie and Akon all properly converted to Forró style. xD
I’m not a fan of the genre, as I grew up in a southeastern state, but still it’s interesting to see what happens to those songs after the convertion.
The video was made by YouTube user BrunodeLooka, though I’m not shure he’s the one who made the convertions (probably not).
You can ignore the portuguese narration… it’s mostly a joke about how everyone has a irritating neighbor who plays this sort of music. :P

AKB48 – River

I dunno much about the japanese idol-singer culture, but I have already heard of the group AKB48.
It’s an all-girls idol pop group created in 2005 that has almost daily performances at Akihabara (the otaku center of the world) in Tokyo.

For this special American version of their latest single, River, director Jonathan Carrera produced this nice music video clip.
Lots more info about the group and video shootings on the source.

Air – Talisman

From the Moon Safari album, here’s another Air music currently on my top most listened musics.

You know those songs that for some reason are part of your life and will follow you forever?
The ones you always get back to on happy and sad days, like an old friend?
Well, this is one of those for me, and part of a series of posts I’m calling my permanent playlist.
