Bored of downloading free VST instruments? Sick of analog synths and 909 kick drums? So visit http://www.oddmusic.com/ and visit the gallery of experimental and vintage musical instruments (complete with sound samples in slightly annoying .m3u format). Look out for the Stalacpipe Organ, which uses electrically-powered hammers to play 3 1/2 acres of stalagtites in a cave and the 9-foot long Harmonic Guitars. But the sound I really want someone to make a brilliant record with is the Bazantar, a five-string double bass, with 33 extra sitar-style strings. It's a bit like a bass sitar, and would sound great on a Basement Jaxx record.
Still, there's always someone to spoil the party, and this time it's the Trimeister. There's really no need for that kind of thing.
