What do you mean, you’ve never wanted a springbok-horn decorated, motion-sensing music controller glove? The musos at Jazari would be disappointed with you, though you can probably make it up to them by downloading their new Android app, Voloco.

Voloco is basically a real-time automatic tuning, pitch-shifting and vocoding app, based on Jazari’s custom vocal processing software as shown in action in the video below. Load up a song from your phone’s music library and it will automatically identify its tuning; you can then record your own mangling efforts.

Unfortunately, it won’t let you control a vast array of percussion instrumentation simply by moving your hands. That will have to be left to the experts, as in the somewhat bizarre video below. You can download Voloco free from the Android Market.
