Oddmusic
The No.1 source for the most
exciting and famous pieces of experimental musical instrument building. Bart HopkinÕs
EMI is also a recommendation if you are a builder yourself, but this one is
awesome for its up to date and wonderful gallery with pictures, accurate
descriptions and sound samples. Almost all existing experimental instruments
are collected here. On this site you can find a good audio sample of my Moodswinger.
Oddmusic is home to unique, odd,
ethnic, experimental and unusual musical instruments and resources. Tour the
Gallery, see in-depth sections featuring artisans who blazed new trails or are
on the cutting edge of new and previously unheard musical instruments. Look,
listen, and explore music and musical instruments that aren't part of the
mainstream. Showcasing unusual musical creations and sounds of unique artists
and artisans from around the globe. From gourd music to electronic odysseys,
harp guitars to industrial insects, from beautiful, to bizarre, to just plain
wacky. New, unique innovations, along with heavily modified hybrids of
instruments once formally known as guitars, basses, keyboards, drums, wind and
stringed instruments. Musical stalagmites, bowed telegraph wires, twisted
electrons, Circuit Bending, Waterphones, HAPI Drums, Hang drums, Hank Drums,
and Tank Drums, ethnic instruments, Stamenphones, Theremins, Serpents, Light
Harps, and much more.

your eyes and ears a treat. Feed your imagination at Oddmusic!
