Musikmesse 2014 Frankfurt

Hej folks,

did anybody visit the Musikmesse 2014 in Frankfurt these days?

Perhaps you can tell us something of the new trends?

I'm not in Europe but here's one video I found in my inbox for some sufficient weirdness.

I particularly enjoyed one of the comments who wants to see it smashed or on fire

Here's another weird controller from this year's Musikmesse...

Thank you happyrat1,

but when I see and hear this I can only feel horror for the musical future or I'm simply to old.

Infrared theremins and synthesizer concertinas. Throw in an atomic Kazoo and there is the future of homo musicalis.

I too, weep for the future of mankind Goldi

This one wasn't at Musikmesse but instead turned up at SWSX in Texas this year.

Pretty bloody amazing what you can do with an iPhone these days.

Then again, what happens if you get a call while you're on stage?
