This post is part 1 of 3 of \u00a0The Mindy Python's Confined Band<\/a><\/div>\n

Well… since last post <\/a>things got wild as usual<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yes, a simple bass would be great. And yes, the metallophone\/glockenspiel could be perfected. And yes, most bands use more than 4 percussion instruments in their musics so the Percussion Kit could be extended a bit… and since some MIDI files include lyrics on a metadata track why not trying Text To Speech and have a singer? And what about that last year funny finding of doing music with pneumatics valves?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So The Mindy Python’s Confined Circus band has born.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And also yes, the software part is getting complex day after day. Thank god for open source and search engines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So after having a basic 4-intrument Percussion Kit sorted out I decided to try a LEGO one-string instrument. Nothing fancy, just the basics: just a string and a resonance box:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
