I heard this the other day and loved it.

Chad VanGaalen makes music with a variety of objects turned instruments, including motorized mallets that bang on old drums and other objects he found while sifting through trash containers. Check out the samples on the link below, especially "Flower Gardens" which has some nice solos from the homebrew devices.
