The Magical Mechanical Orchestras

US Phenomenal DIY instruments      13/10/22

If you've heard of WinterGatan, you will have seen his tremendous marble music machines - well, this is the man who originally inspired him many years ago! The Jan Cardell Mechanichal Orchestra is an incredible selection of hand made machines with a steampunk aesthetic and exceptionally well-designed forms. Of course they don't just look great, they also sound fantastic, with some glorious tones across the board (sometimes literally). Not sure you'll find a gig bag for all of them! Amazing stuff. 

It would be wrong of me to not also mention Felix Machines here, who also makes incredible musical.... machines!
