"Toa Mata Band" by Giuseppe Acito

Toa Mata Band is known as the World's first LEGO robotic band controlled by Arduino Uno which is hooked up to a MIDI sequencer. In this video, the third episode, the robots are playing some unconventional drum-percussions made by some food packaging are captured by a contact microphone (piezo) and processed in real time in the D.A.W. Ableton Live. A brand new device appears for the first time, it's a sliding platform on x-axis, made of Lego bricks, gears and servo motors that allows the tiny synth to move in semitone steps.

The song is a cover of the famous synth-pop band Depeche Mode, it's a personal tribute to the band who made my days in the 80's.
The performance was recorded live in July 2014.

Imagine never again having to argue with your bandmates!
