Moby’s James Bond Theme covered by duo playing Eigenharps
Let’s be honest now, Eigenharps seem like just about the nerdiest of all instruments – I mean come on, that looks to be a vocoder attached to a drum machine/sequencer and a sampler, all dressed up in the conceit of a guitar or saxophone – but they sure do work nicely for this kind of music.
I’ve just come up with a new name for the instrument, I hope you like it: Electric Guitaxophoney.
Bonus: the same guys (plus one) covering Ghost Town by The Specials.
Good stuff.

Day of the Triffids
If this image doesn’t sell the Beeb’s remake to you, I don’t know what will.
Via Gamma Squad, where you’ll also find a bunch of promo trailers & teasers (and some much less compelling photos than this one of Eddie Izzard).
Pygmy Hippos look like they’re from some other planet.
This can’t be real, right?
It’s a little known fact that hippo calves are lighter than air. Grab on to mummy for ballast, little one.
