Mickey Delp Makes 'Walk Up and Play' Electronic Instruments (Video)

Posted by Roblimo on from the beeples-and-booples-and-booples-and-beeples dept.

There he was at SXSW with a tableful of beeping and booping electronic (musical) instruments made by his company, Delptronics, surrounded by kids and adults listening to and playing the instruments. One of the adults was Slashdot's Timothy Lord, who pointed his videocam at Mickey and asked (slightly paraphrased), "What's going on here?"

    You mean like YouTube or Vimeo? Yeah. That would be too easy.

    I just let Mickey Delp know that he was on Slashdot. He's wondering who the hell Raymond is.

    Didn't miss much. It's just another person trying to suggest that step-sequencers are somehow interesting to non-musicians. Even as a musician myself, I quickly find things get muddy and confusing very quickly, as the connection between action and music is so abstract that I never feel like it's me making the noise.
