Theremin Jam

I'm sure by now we have all heard of the Theremin. This instrument was revolutionary for the sound effects of many old sci-fi and horror movies. However, it is often overlooked as an actual musical instrument. Below is a group of individuals who created a rather interesting piece of music to showcase its usefulness. Personally, I happen to like it. Without further ado, I give you "Crazy Theremin Jam."

I wonder what the quality of a homebrew theremin is? Mind you, I've got an empty altoids tin I've been thinking of building something into for ages. A "Theremin in a Tin", would that be a tin of win or a pail of fail? Waddayathink?

I went to school with Danger Mouse. Guy with the fro. He used to spin booty music at this Mexican restaurant called Compadres in Athen's GA. Sadly, Compadres closed or I am sure he would still be there mixing some "who let the dogs out" with "girl with the dazy dukes on"
