Music is one of the only languages everybody can speak
along with math, love, and Azerbaijani.
But why does music have to be confined to musical instruments?
Why can't we make music out of everyday objects?
We can and we shall.
We're going to be presented with everyday items
that are not known for their instrumentness
and our task, Rhett, is going to work together.
I left a word out. To be.
- Yeah. - To work together.
I understood where you were going.
And make them musical instruments.
- Can we do it? Let's find out. - Yeah.
- Okay. - Our first item is--
A jacket. Like a windbreaker.
Oh, this is a windbreaker.
- Windbreaker. Lots of potential here. - Oh!
Zipper, zipper, zipper, zipper.
Zippers and squishy squishies.
- Ooh! - You wanna be zipper man, I'll be squishy man?
Yeah, I'll be zipper man.
- You think the navy sounds different than the green? - This thing stinks.
Oh, actually-- Listen!
The greens have a lot more noise in it.
- Who knew that dark colors would absorb sound. - See, we're discovering stuff.
All right, I'm ready.
Hit the music. Let's see if we can make it--
-
We gotta compliment each other.
You can't fill all the space with the zip is what I'm saying.
- Oh, really? Okay. - Let's compliment each other.
And stop!
Wow!
Wow! I-- We could be a band!
- Wow! Wow! - Wow!
Just give us a couple of windbreakers...
- Wow! - ...and a backing track and stand back.
Oh!
Almost empty ketchup bottle. Okay, yeah.
- Mmm. - This is-- Here's the burger
but we're not gonna make the burger the instrument.
This fart maker right here-- Oh!
There's only so much
so you got so many farts, you know.
But you've also got what you just did, a--
That's once the farts are over.
Once the farts are over you go to bottle noises.
And once the bottle noises are over you go to burger noises.
Okay, so save the farts for the track.
That's what I always say.
- Okay. - Hit it!
( music playing )
( bottle sputtering )
It's not farting enough.
( bottle sputtering )
Now you go to that thing and I'll do burger.
Oh!
( bottle cap clicking )
( bottle sputtering )
Oh, come on, man!
I think I can suck a fart back up in here.
Oh, come on!
I've tried that.
I think we've exhausted this to its full potential.
Ooh! Coffee--
- Grinder! - Grinder.
Um--
It's pretty much got one--
- ( grinder whirs ) - Whoa!
That is--
It doesn't just have one.
- ( coffee beans rattling ) - Oh!
Ah, yeah!
Percussion!
( coffee beans rattling )
You gonna be that guy? And I'll be this guy?
- Okay. Ooh! - Okay, all right.
Hit the music!
( music playing )
Ooh! Ooh! Ooh! Ooh!
- ( coffee beans rattling ) - ( coffee grinding )
Oh!
( coffee grinding )
- ( coffee beans rattling ) - ( coffee grinding )
I ground all the coffee up. Oh!
What?
I got--
I got new coffee.
Oh!
And you're frozen.
Whoa! Look at your-- Look at your hair, man.
I was really excited about doing some more, man.
Hit it again!
Oh, mine's stuck!
Mine's stuck!
( coffee grinding )
I can't get mine to stop.
( screams )
( coffee grinding )
Good gosh!
Before the man loses his coif entirely.
That was a good one.
- I love-- - Ketchup kinda sucked compared to this.
- I love coffee. - I got more coffee!
Oh! Oh, God, more coffee!
We need to go to the raves!
- You've unhinged, man. - We should go to the raves
with just a pound of coffee and a couple of grinders.
Oh, we got some steak, hot plates.
Some tongs and some butter.
So--
I'll load 'em up.
We're gonna make a sizzle symphony here.
( butter sizzling )
Oh, yeah!
♪ Butter your pan if you can ♪
♪ If you think you're the man ♪
♪ Butter your pan ♪
All right, grab me a steak.
I'll do that myself.
All right, so we're gonna hit the music
before we lay the steak.
And I think it's more of a like--
- Like percussively-- - Yeah.
It's like a hi-hat. It's like a hi-hat.
Ooh, it's like a hi-hat?
Or a cymbal.
All right, hit it!
