  2. Perhaps Wu-Tang & RZA will get retro and use the Mellotron for the While My Guitar Gently Sleeps sample that just got cleared, the first officially sanctioned Beatles sample (!!)

    I\’m never going to grow up and then become a geek too! They have so much fun building cool stuff, going to cool shows, and doing cool things.

    But are they all independently wealthy or what?!

    If the Firesign Theater can make a five-course meal out of dogfood and dishwater…I guess I could make a Mellotron! I’ll warn ya tho’–I’m more of the duct tape/krazy gloo type than one who could master a soldering iron. I also come from the Fred G. Sanford school of bang-on-it-twice-to-get-it-to-work!

    But hey! Give me an extra five pounds of shellac, and I could make a Mellotron MkII!

    But seriously, when I came across Mike Walters’ Melloman a couple years ago, it was “superinspiring” as the lads quote, yet I was thinking more along the lines of Laurie Anderson’s violin in tandem. The bow was the tape strip, and the head was on the violin.

    My suggestion would be to stop buying those way cool hipster glasses for a year, find a barber instead of a stylist for your haircuts, and use the money you will save buying a real mellotron from Streetly Electronics, who are still in business. Then, learn how to play music on it instead of making farting noises. One question: Why was this video letterboxed? Or is the point to be 16×9 dweebs?

    If I had more electronic skills this clip would make me want to go to the second-hand store and buy a whole bunch of Walkmans.
