i’m fond of the jokes along the lines of “you know shit’s about to hit the fan when the kazoo comes out” but i just learned what instrument actually makes that noise in the mp100 ost.

it’s the seamoons.

they’re “machines with lungs and vocal chords”

here’s a vid of one playing

i don’t know what it is exactly, but knowing it’s not a kazoo but one of these tall fellas sure brings Something to the experience

  1. reactions when i’ve exposed people to this knowledge have been pretty evenly split between delighted fascination and visceral discomfort and/or terror
  2. the art collective that created the seamoons (seamoonses?), maywa denki, is all about making nonsense instruments and nonsense art
  3. the gentlemans are people size and have a wide power stance going on
  4. they’re in the ost because the composer, kawai kenji, has used them before and is just wild like that

here is a video from last year with an updated model, presumably the ones used for mp100

Not sure what I just watched. This is what would happen if you put the Cenobites in charge of making a Chuck E. Cheese animatronic show.

HOLY SHIT the same group who made these invented the fucking otamatone???
