Oddmusic
With  a focus on unusual, ethnic, and experimental musical
instruments, the noise-loving folks at Oddmusic.com
take tunes to new heights. The gallery is
the heart of the site and contains photos,
descriptions, and sound clips from over 80
types of odd musical instruments. The Australian
didgeridoo may be the oldest wind instrument
in the world. The amazing pencilina has nothing
to do with the writing utensil -- instead
it's a "collision" of dulcimer, bass, koto,
and slide guitar. Named like a Dr. Seuss creation,
the fiddle-dee-doo is a globu-tubular horn
with goatskin resonator. Vintage harp-mandolins
look like fantastical toys. For a taste of
authentic rock music, it's hard to beat the
singing stones. Don't miss features like an
in-depth look at the spooky theremin, one
of the earliest electronic instruments. As
you delve into unique new musical experiences,
you'll want to stay open to the odd (in
