Twincam Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 Something is telling me that there's a lot of post production done to the sound of that thing. Bet it sounds like a bag of ball bearings in person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BassTractor Posted March 4, 2016 Author Share Posted March 4, 2016 Wintergatan are a talented young nerdygeeky band from South-West Sweden. On their YT channel they have lots of vids about the design and construction of the machine. BTW, their introductory vid from 2013: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SBK2AF-NdVA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xgsjx Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 I guess there's a bit of wait time between the songs at gigs? Maybe enough time to catch a football match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
