This game is going to have such a long tailWe're still writing about Zelda: Breath of the Wild news on occasion despite the fact that it's over six years old at this point, and Tears of the Kingdom (https://www.destructoid.com/reviews/review-the-legend-of-zelda-tears-of-the-kingdom/)'s reach just might outlast it. Amid all of the frankly insane devices and creations (https://www.destructoid.com/theres-a-tears-of-the-kingdom-building-database-site-and-its-fantastic/) we've seen the community come up with, this new wave of videos showcases another creative element: music.
How the community is creating music in Tears of the KingdomWhat the community is essentially doing is using stakes and lasers [beam emitters] (or other things) to create musical notes, which are then strung together through specific stake placements and item manipulation. Given how easy it is to head to a Zonai device dispenser (https://www.destructoid.com/how-to-use-a-zonai-device-dispenser-in-tears-of-the-kingdom/), amass stakes, and save/quit in a field while experimenting, anyone who is willing can give it a shot.
Check out this short tutorial from Twitter user bran8bit (https://twitter.com/bran8bit/status/1667539615413334017).

Since then, the community at large took this knowledge and ran with it. Take this invention from Twitter user kabukichi00 (https://twitter.com/kabukichi00/status/1668898001165877255): they use an existing in-game platform to perfectly recreate the ever-present "Song of Storms" track (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=43IPAGw01IY).

Another clip from kody_botw (https://twitter.com/kody_botw/status/1668587177973026817) shows off how players can manually create music by lifting a laser cannon up with Ultrahand, and even play along with the background track.

Then there's this clip from noteabletony (https://twitter.com/noteabletony/status/1668350921158320159), who goes a step further and gets a minecart involved.

Welp, I still have more Street Fighter 6 and Diablo 4 to play, but this is my evening sorted! I suspect in just a week's time we're going to see a clip of an entire symphony recording out of this game somehow.
