Diego Stocco - Music From Dry Cleaner

Sound designer and composer Diego Stocco continues making music from uncommon objects and places with this new video using loops recorded from a local dry cleaner. Stocco has previously made music from a tree, from sand, and a bonsai, among others. As what Diego Stocco said:

Almost everyday, on my way to a local bakery, I walk in front of a dry cleaners. When they have the front door open, I hear a lot of interesting sounds coming from their work equipment. Eventually, the different mechanical and steam sounds sparked something in my mind, so one day I asked the owners if I could record a piece of music by using their machines as musical instruments. 

I used a puff iron, press and dry cleaning machines, a washer, clothes hangers, and a bucket full of soap. The bass and lead sounds were created from the buzzing tones coming from the conduits and engines. There are no additional sounds from any traditional or electronic instruments. Enjoy!

 Usually you watch TV commercial on people making music out of nothing. Here is the real version.
