Two of our favourite things from the ’80s were a-ha and floppy drives. So imagine our elation when we found out that they had been combined? Yep, a computer orchestra known as the “Floppotron” has somehow been programmed to create cover songs and the robot’s latest re-creation is a-ha’s 80s classic “Take On Me”!

 

We have no idea what type of witchcraft went in to creating this musical machine but we’re guessing it took a long time to calibrate all the disc drives, sprockets and doo-dad’s. It might not be as catchy as the original but it is a unique and incredibly nostalgic take on one of our favourite songs.
