Revolutions in the music industry are directly related to the emergence of the latest technology, and new directions in music are born from the invention of original instruments or non-standard ways of recording and playing.
For example, the electric guitar gave the world rock music, and such styles as new wave and synth pop appeared due to the mass sales of cheap synthesizers. Improved phonographs Edison, various players and records gave birth to hip-hop, acid house was born thanks to the basic synthesizer TV-303, and home computers gave the opportunity to make a breakthrough in electronic music.
What will be the music of the future – time will tell, but we can say with confidence that the search for new forms of musical expression is not standing still. In the 21st century, the invention of unusual musical instruments continues, some of which we will talk about today.
In the modern music industry every year there are more and more new instruments, striking with their variety and functionality, but all the well-known, classical instruments are not going out of fashion, competing with the novelties on an equal footing. For example, even with digital models, the piano and classical guitar are still some of the most popular musical instruments in the world, and it is simply impossible to think of an alternative to the violin, because nothing else will sound as charming and exciting as a stringed wooden instrument.
