Pierre Bastien live in London - Clip 1

Pierre Bastien is a musician who makes makes instruments out of domestic objects, pushpins, paperclips, meccano sets, and them sets them up like a small band. The meccano sets house different rhythm wheels that can be attacthed and removed easily, they rub or hit surfaces that are mic’d up and can be rotated at different speeds to create faster or slower rhythms. keyboards are played with rolling pins strategically decorated with push-pins, which rotate and strike the keys on a cheap casio keyboard. At the beginning of this clip, Pierre accompanies his electric orchestra by playing an african thumb piano with a bow. That’s all I’m going to explain just watch the damn video. this clip is from 2005, here is an article about him written in 2010.
