Tractor as Drum Section

Some see as an idling tractor, but to Olle Hemmingsson it’s a mobile two cylinder drum machine that happens to have an excessive amount of horsepower. It turns out it’s great addition to the rhythm section for a lovely cover of “Sweet Georgia Brown”. via Laughing Squid
The use of the everyday object in music here with an exciting and oversized twist. Machinery can be very useful as a source of rhythm I have noticed in my own practice but something as goliath as a tractor is really peculiar and special. It kind of reminds me of Lucas Abela's Combi albums.
