This doesn’t really have anything to do with metal, but it’s pretty neat and the whole goddamn world has Star Wars fever right now on account of Rogue One, so we thought we’d share it.

A dude named Paweł Zadrożniak has created what he calls ‘The Floppotron,’ a contraption that plays music using sixty-four floppy drive discs*.

What kind of music, you ask? Well, for example… John Williams’ theme from Star Wars and ‘Imperial March’ from The Empire Strikes Back:

No word on the progress of Zadrożniak’s next brilliant creation, which is said to provide sexual pleasure for people who spend their time making musical instruments out of old computer parts. It’s called ‘The Fappotron.’

*Kids: a floppy drive disc was… oh, just go ask your parents, I can’t deal with feeling old today.
