Improbable Worlds: an antique piano almost bisected but for one remaining wishbone of wood connecting the two halves. How artist Maskull Lasserre did it – considering the fragility of the wishbone and the weight of the piano – is anyone’s guess.

Behold: the Whaletone Royal Digital – a 100% digital (no strings or hammers), MIDI equipped, Orca-looking, made-to-order piano – fully customisable in any colour, finish, inlay or light effect to match the outré décor of your penthouse duplex or ocean-going yacht.
Yours for a trifling €98,400+

Making-of featurette here.

Thanks for the support over the last few years. I’ve finally got my debut E.P. together for release this Friday with the official launch gig on Saturday evening in the Unitarian Church, Dublin. The video was made by the incredibly talented Louise Gaffney. The release will be available on vinyl and digital download through Ensemble Records.

Levels Of Tetris by talented New York pianist Scott Bradlee. Sez he:
I’ve always believed that modern electronic dance music was heavily influenced by old school NES games. Since stride piano is kind of the piano equivalent of electronic dance music, I decided to create this ragtime mashup of Korobeiniki (the Russian folk song that is also the ‘Tetris’ theme song) and Levels by Avicii.
