This is definitely one of the most creative applications in the Apple AppStore. You can set your custom tabledrum sounds as a trigger for ‘real’ drum sounds in the application.

It even notices and how soft/hard you hit your pencil on your table! Awesome.

Stupid Orchestra
Michael Petermann, a classically trained musician and conductor, has put together an ingenious musical ‘orchestra’ made entirely out of vintage electric appliances. ‘The Stupid Orchestra‘ is made out of mixers, vacuum cleaners and washing machines, all built between 1940 and 1975. Performing every hour on the hour at the MKG Hamburg until April 30th, the orchestra runs on an electronic control system of Petermann’s design, meaning Petermann doesn’t have to conduct his electrical orchestra himself.
