     So correction: Including that song it was actually 129 songs performed on the Floppotron 2.0.

     Time to review some of the greatest hits of the Floppotrons that came before.
     
     I really love the ones that go beyond the Floppotron itself and add more instruments.

     Here is "Seven Nation Army" on Floppotron, washing machine door, toilet lid, smashed mug, smashed glass shelf and a surprise for the final chord.

     "Video Killed the Radio Star" contains some added instruments (VCR and TV slaps), but I'm including it not so much for that and more for how it incorporates the old chip music technique of using an extremely rapid arpeggio to gain one more voice.

     "Ar Doom's Gate" from.the very first Doom level is just a straight-up performance of the song, but that's because the song is so very well suited to this instrument.

     @clacke I hope this person gets credits somewhere like: "Arranged for floppy drive, hard drive, and scanner by Paweł Zadrożniak"
