The Breaking Bad Theme Played with Meth Lab Equipment

Last night marked the begin­ning of the final sea­son of Break­ing Bad, the AMC tele­vi­sion series that chron­i­cles the life and times of Wal­ter White, the chem­istry teacher-turned-meth king­pin. To get in the spir­it of things, Andrew Huang decid­ed to record the Break­ing Bad theme song with a gui­tar and some meth lab equip­ment. On his YouTube page he writes:

I don’t know any­thing about mak­ing meth but a lit­tle Googling let me know that if you come across a meth lab you might find, among oth­er things:

- propane cylin­ders
— rub­ber tub­ing
— paper tow­els
— cof­fee fil­ters
— lab­o­ra­to­ry beakers
— mea­sur­ing cups
— buck­ets
— plas­tic bot­tles
— fry­ing pans

Oth­er than the gui­tar, all of the sounds in this piece were pro­duced using the items above, with min­i­mal effects and some speed adjust­ments to change pitch­es.
