There are plenty of iPhone apps out there which let you play different instruments,  and some bands like Atomic Tom have even made some great videos of themselves jamming on these instruments.

The band Gorillaz is set to release an entire album recorded on the iPad.

Getting in on the trend is a couple Israeli musicians, Ilan & Sipo. They recorded a cover of the song “Blanket” by Urban Species using 24 instruments and sounds from 17 iPhone and iPad apps.

Actors – Idan Alterman, Mandy, Noam Vardi, Reut Tayar, Ilan Dorot
Post Production – Niv Mileguir

The goal, says Ilan, was to produce “a song you can play at a club/on the radio.” But he did kind of cheat, because he mixed the final version in a studio using ProTools. But no real instruments were used (wait, unless an iPhone is now considered an instrument). He used the following apps he used to create the instrumentation:

• iShred
• Bassist
• Thereminator
• NlogSynth
• Aragon
• Retro Synth
• ThumbJam
• Ellatron
• Beat Tap
• DB-303
• i808
• ReBirth
• Shaker
• Drum Meister
• iTimbales
• 3D Drum kit
• AudioMicro

Every note and sound you hear was played on an iPhone/iPad app – a total of 24 instruments by 17 apps are featured above.
