Genius musical innovator and sound composer/designer Diego Stocco is best-known for his wonderful video clips, which features him expertly bringing sound and music out of many unlikely sources. It is very inspiring to see him in action, and his passion for creating these unique sounds is nothing short of glorious! The Underwire department of Wired has featured Diego and many great projects including a great new instrument he has developed called the Experibass; here we can see a video of Diego making the instrument and then playing a rocking version of Personal Jesus on it. This is begging for a mash-up!!
One of my favourite videos is Music from a Tree, in which Diego utilises recording technology to make music from many aspects of a tree. Simply amazing and is reminiscent of Damanhur's Music of the Plants. Diego likes to create music and sounds out of the brilliant resource all around us; nature! As his website says 'Diego loves discovering hidden sounds from organic sources, objects and materials, his unorthodox musical curiosity allows him to produce music with sounds never heard before.' Truly wonderful stuff, and I highly encourage you all to investigate his YouTube channel, website, and of course, the Underwire feature.
