If you read the title and thought “What the heck is an Otamatone”… you’re not alone. I have no idea what this thing is. It’s shaped like a music note, and it’s played a bit like some sort of string instrument? It has a face which has to be squeezed to make it look like it’s singing?
I am confused.
Well, apparently there’s someone on Youtube by the name of nelsontyc who is an expert at playing this bizarre instrument. And he did a cover of Try Everything back in March 2016.
Talk about Trying Everything. Thanks to /u/FurryWolves on reddit for finding this.
Check out this very… unusual… cover after the break!
For a singing whale emoji, *cuts to Idubbbz* That's pretty good.
Not entirely sure what it is I just watched….but it's still somehow amusing
Ive seen these before… Most percussionists I know call it the dog toy for its… sound.
