We all love a good engineering passion project here at The Register<\/em> and hopefully guitar-oriented music too. With One Hacker Band, these realms collide with surprising tunefulness.<\/p>\n

We’ve already marveled at the Floppotron 3.0 computer hardware orchestra<\/a> made up of 512 floppy disk drives and other whirring, clunking retro machinery programmed to screech out renditions of “Imperial March”, “Entry of the Gladiators”, and “Smells Like Teen Spirit.”<\/p>\n

But what if we told you the instruments in One Hacker Band played themselves? The mind behind the project has rigged up custom versions of the rock and roll power trio \u2013 guitar, bass, drums \u2013 to perform Nirvana’s most popular song as well as a host of other hits including Deep Purple’s “Smoke On The Water”, Aerosmith’s “Walk This Way”, and Metallica’s “Enter Sandman”<\/a>.<\/p>\n
