It’s steampunk tech with a MIDI tweak. You’ve got to love it: an electronically controlled, propane powered musical instrument which works by exploding propane/air mixtures inside organ pipes.  The Large Hot Pipe Organ (LHPO), which consistsof twenty, ten and a half inch pipes ranging in height from three to ten meters, sounds and looks more like a military weapon than a musical instrument - but its been performing at festivals throughout Europe, and could be coming to a town near you soon! ‘The LHPO’s pyro-acoustic explodo-rhythmations will throbbatize your earholes, dance-ify your booty and make you realize what Industrial Music REALLY means!’ explain its inventors, Bastiaan Maris  and Geo Homsy

The Large Hot Pipe Organ is visually as well as sonically impressive: its creators have some great photos of the beast in action on their site as well as the unmissable MP3 files of it blatting out some classic tunes. Really, you can’t afford to miss this. Large Hot Pipe Organ: can we just say it one more time?www.lhpo.orgThe essential sounds of the LHPO: The Slow Steamboat Song
