OK Go | Needing/Getting



okgo.netOK do their bit for Detroit by outfitting a Chevy Sonic with retractable pneumatic arms designed to play 1000 instruments over two miles of desert outside Los Angeles.

The band recorded this version of Needing/Getting, singing as they played the instrument array with the car. The video took 4 months of preparation and 4 days of shooting and recording. There are no ringers or stand-ins; Damian took stunt driving lessons. Each piano had the lowest octaves tuned to the same note so that they'd play the right note no matter where they were struck.
