I used to work in a medical company that made syringe pumps. The pumps had stepper motors to control the injection speed, and I was the one who wrote the software for them. In order to test my code, I had the syringe pump play "Jingle Bells". Unfortunately, there was only one stepper motor so it wasn't as musical as this video.

Theoden Sure, but the more mass the more volume you can get out of em vs a smaller motor. EQing a smaller motor playing low would work too, but where’s the fun in that? :)
mrgeraldbrent I was suggesting that there was a way to do bass without a larger stepper motor. However it would be hilarious to see these 4 main stepper motors flanked by 2 massive ones 4x the size of these acting as the basses.

It sounds _much_ better as "the Billy o' Tea." Someone somewhere wrote a rant about that being the original phrasing and how some modern performance of the song ruined it but I 'unno.
Fun fact, Alexa played this randomly when I asked her to play a sea shanty tune about 2 weeks ago. This now makes it come full circle with RUclips's algorithms suggesting it to me. Good on ya!

Very cool :) I definitely love stepper motor music 🙂 And the Wellerman played on steppers is just awesome 👍 Also the analog amplification using a guitar body is clever 😉 Although I am getting kind of nauseous by the shaking of the camera on the strings 😨
I love that society has found a place for stepper motors let's hope they don't end up in places they shouldn't be ... like anywhere else I can hear them and they are not playing music
“Once the tongue-ing is done” is actually the lyric. Tonguing is the term for cutting out a whales tongue which goes for very high in the market. Also it’s “take our leave and go”
the fact that this sounds like it's played on hurdy gurdy is making it 100% cooler
The space pirate's version.
gurdy
YES it does!!!
the stepper motors are placed on a guitar. that's why it sounds like this
@@TheGatsback
So if you put them on a rock, would it sound like an electric guitar?

Get a bigger motor and throw in that low low bass part. :)
He could do bass with these same motors. Just rotate them slower

As the motors turn and turn all day,
We’ll watch ‘till midnight, yes we may!

The floppotron has competition.
No one can beat floppotron
@@CreeplayEU these beat floppotron
The floppotron has stepper motors.
This is like a barbershop quartet compared to the floppotron's whole symphonic orchestra - both are equally valid and great
They should do a collab vid. That would be epic.
Lowkey vibing
Sounds a little like a Hurdy Gurdy without the Hurdy or the Gurdy.

The best digital barbershop quartet ive ever heard/seen!
Sounds like a game soundtrack from the 80s! Love it!
Sounds like an nes game about pirating and I'm here for it
This right here! ^
Pirates on nes was great
this is it boys, we've found what the quiet kid does in his spare time
lmao
How did you know this is what I do
And point is, this is really awesome. Maybe we should ask him how he did it and what else he does?
Why are you all so curious?
Nah the quiet did this 2 years ago when the song was released. You're all just really late.
This guy I think is so unique to create Sea shanty’s and Wellerman on STEPPER MOTORS like that is insane to just think about
Never expected to hear such clean harmony out of a few stepper motors.
Her: what kind of instrument do you play?
Me: *pulls out computer
Her: oh, you’re a DJ?
Me: *pulls out motors
Her: umm... what are you gonna do with those?
Me: it’s my instrument.
Her: what?
Me:
Underrated but hilarious 😂
"Observe."
After playing this, Koraav (see(this is in Skyrim draconic)).
Well this is an „electronic” instrument should i say
So going to do this gonna get her man thx 😎
I'm not sure why people disliked this, like, it's exactly what is in the title. What did you expect?
Motors: "What do you think they're doing with our output? Producing life saving medication? Generating useful effort to advance their society?"
Spacey:
Well, it could be reasoned that this is keeping our morale up, and staving off depression
I watched this and don't have scurvy. It's working
I like to think they'd be happy if they knew they were making music. I love them. Little motor guys
"so what instrument do you play"
me: its complicated
Ah yes, I really needed more unintentional electric music in my life
For my StarWars fans out there, Imagine the droids humming this just like the clones sing this before a battle or something

Never before had I known I needed something so much until I received it. THIS 👏 NEEDS 👏 TO 👏 HAPPEN!👏
What I should be doing: stuff

Soon may the Wellerman come
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
One day, when the tonguin’ is done
We’ll take our leave and go
She had not been two weeks from shore
When down on her a right whale bore
The captain called all hands and swore
He’d take that whale in tow
Soon may the Wellerman come
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
One day, when the tonguin’ is done
We’ll take our leave and go
Before the boat had hit the water
The whale’s tail came up and caught her
All hands to the side, harpooned and fought her
When she dived down below
Soon may the Wellerman come
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
One day, when the tonguin’ is done
We’ll take our leave and go
No line was cut, no whale was freed
The Captain’s mind was not of greed
But he belonged to the whaleman’s creed
She took the ship in tow
Soon may the Wellerman come
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
One day, when the tonguin’ is done
We’ll take our leave and go
For forty days, or even more
The line went slack, then tight once more
All boats were lost, there were only four
But still that whale did go
Soon may the Wellerman come
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
One day, when the tonguin’ is done
We’ll take our leave and go
As far as I’ve heard, the fight’s still on
The line’s not cut and the whale’s not gone
The Wellerman makes his regular call
To encourage the Captain, crew, and all
Soon may the Wellerman come
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
One day, when the tonguin’ is done
We’ll take our leave and go
Soon may the Wellerman come
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
One day, when the tonguin’ is done
We’ll take our leave and go
Can confirm that you are correct, I have the Wellerman On Apple Music

And this is why i still have faith in RUclips. Frekking amazing
RUclips throws this video my way ... I have no freaking clue what I'm seeing but it's cool ...
NGL something about the gritty feel of the motors makes it feel easier to understand
The oscillation/frequency the camera can't handle at 1:26 is massive, just like this video!! Thanks spacey man!
Absolutely beautiful. Brilliant. More please

Amazing 4 part harmony - brilliant!!!!
Great idea to place them near the bridge of an acoustic guitar to bring out the loud resonances. 😎
I'ma be honest these have been done so much. But they NEVER get old to me somehow.
I just LOVE the chorus :)

This is wonderful. More more more! :)

why would anyone dislike this? amazing.
