iBand – Rocks with iPhones as Instruments

Posted on 18 Feb 2008 by PatrickJ

That’s iBand in the video above – using iPhones and a Nintendo DS (only because they only had two iPhones to go around) to play their music.

Talk about showing how much you can do with the iPhone and the multitouch interface – iBand really shows you can go crazy with it, have a ton of fun, and end up with some pretty listenable music as well.

Here’s a little more background, from Sebastian Wober, a Gizmodo fan and band member:

Since Electroplankton on the Nintendo DS we constantly think about implementing those sounds, and since the iPhone we like to play with PocketGuitar (played in the clip by Roland Dell’mour.) Now that iAno came out (played by Marina Dell’mour) we just had to try this out! As you said in your article: there has to be an iPhone band! It’s the next step. And as we’re devoted Giz readers we thought we’d give it a shot and sat down to improvise a little and pressed record on that digital camera.

Very good stuff …
