Why has nobody invented a new musical instrument in like 100 years?

Pic related is the last thing that comes to mind.

The Hang was invented in 2000

How come only #backtonature #oldspirit hippies play an instrument designed 20 years ago

Is that a bait thread or OP is just dumb?

Those don't count. A laptop is an instrument and synths are basically just pianos from a playing point of view.

The daxophone is pretty cool

I saw this guy
rateyourmusic.com/artist/david-kuckhermann
open for Dead Can Dance, he plays the hang and other percussion instruments brilliantly. He played one piece on a tambourine (or perhaps just some foreign instrument that looked a lot like one, not sure) and I never would've thought how much you can get out of such an instrument without any accompaniment.

hipsters

The timbre is vastly different from a piano to a synth, as is the case of a fortepiano to a piano, or a harpsichord to a fortepiano. Timbre is obviously what defines an instrument, and a synth has a quantifiably different texture.

you can pretty much make any sound you want with computers and synths so there is really no point anymore.

what the fuck

the electric bass was invented in the 50's. It is based on the upright bass but it's a new instrument nonetheless

vibraphone, cristal baschet, waterphone, etc.

you don't need to use a keyboard to play a synthesizer or a laptop, dummy. anyway doesn't that mean a piano is just a pipe organ?

OP has apparently never heard of Harry Partch

this shit is the most onions instrument ever

the new instruments are VSTs

how often do you think impactful instruments are supposed to be invented?
100 years isnt very long.
look at the gap between the first stringed instruments and the organ.
100 years is nothing.
