This is a video of musician Carolina Eyck performing a portion of Korsakov’s ‘Flight Of The Bumblebee’ on theremin. She even has a little glow light in her fingers that looks like a bumblebee flying around as she plays. That was a nice touch. Getting stung by a bee? That’s

This is a video of the entirely robotic One Hacker Band performing a rendition of Nirvana’s 1991 banger ‘Smells Like Teen Spirit’. Even without watching the video, you can tell it’s a robot band playing it. It sounds robotic. Like I’ve often been accused of, it has no soul. Also,

This is Jazz Sabbath, a delightful album by Avant Garden (available for purchase as an actual LP, CD, or cassette on Bandcamp here) reimagining Black Sabbath songs as jazz bangers. It really is good stuff. I enjoy both jazz and Black Sabbath, so it was a real treat for my

This is ‘In Your Imagination’, a song created by melodysheep (aka John D. Boswell) for PBS Digital Studios using clips from Reading Rainbow . Honestly, I didn’t expect much, but I was happily surprised. It’s like thinking you won’t win anything on that lotto scratcher you bought after a few
