I got an electronic drumset not too long ago. I'm noticing that on weekends after the bars I really enjoy rocking out for an hour or two. To compliment this, my brother got me some badass drumsticks with LED lights that illuminate on each hit.

I'm trying to find some other cool stuff for my room that can light up on bass hits... Anyone have anything like that?

Color organs!

Anyone remember these?

Basically they were just a box full of C7 sockets populated with colored lights like the old ones people put on Christmas trees. A circuit would trigger them to flash randomly with or without a signal or onboard microphone. The active side was covered with a prismatic acrylic diffuser to give the lights a star appearance.

Works best when you have your PC next to your system's subwoofer, but even far away can be made to be pretty sensitive. These were great back in college for dorm parties where you could show off your kickass box and have awesome lighting to your party music! Also used to have them set to light up all bright when I was right next to 8ball rockets blowing up in Unreal Tournament!
