GadgetMadness: We find the coolest gadgets first

The Thummer is an unusual music instrument that's the mutant love child of a back massager, a Dual Shock Controller, and Das Keyboard II.

We particularly like Thumtronics position on why we should care about the Thummer: "Because it is more expressive...because it is easier to learn...because it expands musical horizons" and "because it could create new opportunities for Austin’s musicians." We appreciate those who dance to the beat of a different drum with confidence. If someone can put together a band that features a Thummer, a Hiwatt Echo Theremin and a Sonar Axe guitar we will be so all over it like you can't imagine, cause we're weird like that too.

Video demo of the Thummer in action after the jump.
