When it comes to making sound, anything in the world can become an instrument. The quality, timbre and tone of the sound, as well as how you apply it to an arrangement and record it in the studio is what makes the sound musical and artistic. In a recording situation, using a self-made instrument can be a compelling device that serves the character and colour of the song and can make your recording more intriguing for your listeners. Using a self-made instrument in a live concert makes people curious and fascinated by the odd devices that you are playing on stage, which is one more advantage in catching the attention of your audience.
