I rekon a remake of this with the stepper motors would sound amazing.

I adore the original too but it's really strange but I think this is actually an improvement. The buzz of the floppy drives creates the most spinechilling baseline.

Hahaha, well I'm glad this one is to your liking =)

You know what? I really love you, for your work and its epicness.

This is the absolute best song to showcase this musical technique. Very very cool!

This kind of music suits the floppy sound very well. I love those low bass notes in particular. How do you get them so boomy? Is using the table as a resonating body part of the recipe? And how do you cover it so well with the microphone? I would have expected it to sound very thin in a recording.

The lower ones really do have this bassy vibration going on that I WISH I had to skill to replicate in a snythesizer. It's a really pleasant sound to me to hear a low-note floppy drive churn out that grumble. I reckon if I could hear it, isolated without any accoustics and a strong bass pumping straight into my head, I'd eargasm so fast.

Can you do Savant - technodrome?

I actually record the drives in different sections depending on the song and then try to balance it to what I think is best. Their actual position has little bearing on how loud/soft they are in comparison to the other drives. I do not claim to know what I'm doing. My bad.

Why do I love this so frickin much

Can someone please explain to me how this works? I am absolutely baffled how those things can make different pitched sounds and turn into a song.

@TCWordz

Alec Goldstein Floppy drives used a stepper motor to move the read head (that thing that goes back and forth). And it makes noise. If this is pulsed rapidly (hundreds of times per second), musical notes are made depending on the frequency of the pulses (more = higher pitch). This is possible because floppy drives don't have a controller, everything is handled by the computer they're connected to. For these videos, the drives are connected to an Arduino, which is basically a tiny little computer on a single circuit board, plus some extra cool things. There is a piece of software running on it to control the drives. To make the music, MrSolidSnake makes a MIDI file for each drive (kind of like digital sheet music). The Arduino then does fancy things to change that information into pulses to control the drives.

Each floppy drive can play one note at a time, but there's no limit on how fast it can change pitch -- the faster the head moves, the higher the pitch it makes. That riff only has two notes playing at a time, so two drives.
