Turntable Harp

Now, this is pretty cool.

It's a turntable crossed with a harp, and it comes up with some pretty amazing sounds. I'm not quite sure how it works, but the guy in the video invented it and his playing is awesome.

I wouldn't know what to say about that... somehow, a big part of what can be heard seems sampled, or maybe it's because youtube doesn't sync well the hand movements with the sound.

Wow, great find! It's looped because he's got a delay pedal or built in delay in his keyboard controller that is sampling and looping what he's playing. This is the most unique thing I've seen musically in a while, thanks for sharing.

Thats pretty cool, never knew that you could cross things like that.

+ points for the invention, but musically it grows boring quickly, it's very repetitive...
