Carol of the Floppies (Carol of the Bells)

[lintukorpi]

.... you are amazing!!

[SleegiReviews]

How long does this take to do?

[Sammy1Am]

@SleegiReviews Given all the materials, you could probably assemble the drives in a couple hours following the video tutorial in the doobly-doo.

The most time consuming part for me now is finding and arranging suitable music. The drives are very particular about how they like to play the music, so there's a lot of fine tuning usually. Somewhere between an hour and several hours per song.

[FlavEri]

It's never too late to wish someone a geeky christmas :D

[Link8312]

It seems I'm now incapable of hearing this music without giving it the lyrics of the Carol of the Old Ones.

Well, I guess not knowing the original lyrics doesn't help...

[tosca303unitra]

Hey I know this seems silly but...do you have an MP3 or FLAC download?? :D

[darkmarine123]

I friggen love Carol of the Bells

[shiman6d]

Could a possible name for your floppy series be something like "floppy drive orchestra"? Cause it seems like it. (but in capital letters)

[tomek123kotek]

[ArtistofLegacy]

[anname219]

You can take over the world if you learn to obtain the awesome energy emitting from this.

Impressive, especially in stereo!

[JTPri12345]

You sir have just earned a new subscriber.

[LOKIUNCIA]

Obsolete my ASS.

[CedricBale]

I couldn't help but notice that the setup is vaguely in the shape of a mouth.

Which made me want to see a robotic beast with musical floppy drives for teeth.

[Sorkkimus]

This sure has some kind of end of the world vibe in it.

[EvansRowan123]

@Sorkkimus Have you heard "Carol Of The Old Ones"?

Personally, I have no idea whether the music has an end-of-the-world vibe, because I don't remember what I thought of it before hearing a parody set to Lovecraft-themed words and having those stuck in my head whenever I hear the song.

[Edgeofthedarkness]

Who'd have thought that you could replicate the sound of a huge orchestra with floppy drives. THIS IS AMAZING!!!

[cfalconknee]

Merry Christmas from the Matrix.

[andyroflzz]

You. Are. Awesome.

[O2Eater]

My Printer makes this noise whenever I run out of blue ink.

[SirSpence99]

WOW! Now if only you could do the Star Trek theme.

[genralpoopsmith]
