August 14, 2012 in Education

[prMac.com] Los Angeles, California - Make Me Music is the cool GarageBand for kids. The app is designed by "Big Artists" for "little artists" to explore their own musical app-titude. Illustrated by Beatles and Andy Warhol collaborator and art legend, Alan Aldridge the app is created by the team at FeeFiFoFun. The animated sound garden features 24 unique instruments including a kalimba and a didgeridoo as well as "found sounds" such as pots and pans.
