Get ready for a flashback…I present you Queen’s “Bohemian Rhapsody” performed by an “orchestra” of vintage computer parts, including an Atari 800XL, Texas Instruments TI-99/4A, an 8-inch floppy drive (!), a 3.5-inch hard drive, an HP ScanJet 3C, and several oscilloscopes. Party on, dudes.
For more along these lines, check out the creator’s YouTube page.

Love the “gong” at the end! That was great.

I was in a contest where you had to make a video for Cryptacize’s “Cosmic Sing A Long.” I got third place, but the winner did something along the lines of this.

So this is what happens when I’m not in my basement…

The oscilloscopes are prone to rushing. Good to know.

I love how you put “party on, dudes” at the end of the intro. I learned about Queen and the incredible Bohemian Rhapsody from Wayne’s World.
Awesome video.
