The Mantaray iTar: if you think “gadget music is the new punk rock”
Mobile Accessories - Wednesday, June 9th, 2010

First of all, the device—basically a frame that holds an iPad in place along with a couple of sound synthesizers—is a pretty cool concept if you’re into looping or creating electronic, um, sounds using iPad apps. Called the Mantaray iTar, it’s being peddled (through this video) by VJ Franz K. But that’s as far as we’ll get into it. You have to see the video for yourselves if you want to check out what exactly it does. It’s a bit long at 9-and-a-half minutes, but it’s around 480 of the most entertaining seconds of your life—if you consider weird sales pitches entertaining.

Jump to around 3:50 to hear a sentence that you never expected to hear in your life. See, punk isn’t dead. Apparently, it just evolved into… well, whatever this is. Also, we miss Apple Girl. She was awesome.
