As part of my object remix series, this stereo forces the music source into the center of attention and creates a radically new user interface

Ladies and gentlemen, it is official: I have touched music, and it felt good. Also, she's gonna need a new left speaker.

Etsy seller hesslerk is selling this sleek Heineken mini keg amp for $120.

My liver suffered to bring you this awesome amp, don't worry... the beer went to a good cause!

This coconut amp was built by Steve Lodefink. Not much else to say except it's awesome and will certainly add a tropical island vibe to your next jam session. I was once trapped on Monkey Island (best game ever) for months and was forced to exist almost entirely on coconuts. They were my life blood. I ate them, I drank them, I talked to them. I threw them at things, I played games with them, hell, I even made love to the damn things a big SOS sign with them.
