Swedish designer Love Hultén created the Magicos-2 as a custom instrument commissioned by a private client. The triangular design references the prism artwork from [Pink Floyd’s](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-dark-side-of-the-moon) The Dark Side of the Moon, translating the iconic geometric form into a playable electronic instrument.

The [double-necked configuration](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/phase8) houses a [1010music](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/razzmatazz) Tangerine module on one arm and a Lemondrop module on the other, allowing two independent synthesis engines to operate simultaneously. Nine amber teardrop-shaped controls are embedded within the white triangular body, while the instrument’s symmetrical layout emphasizes the relationship between the dual sound sources and the geometric chassis.

A detachable trapezoidal base contains the effects section, including a Walrus Audio Lore pedal for reverse reverb and a Collision Devices TARs unit for fuzz and distortion. A rose quartz pyramid illuminated from within sits at the center of the base assembly.

## Key Themes

### Key Themes Behind This Trend

- **Hybrid Instrument Design:** A convergence of traditional stringed form factors with embedded electronic synthesis presents opportunities to redefine instrument ergonomics and sonic capabilities.
- **Modular Dual-synthesis:** This trend of integrating two independent synth engines into a single playable interface enables complex layering and on-instrument sound design previously reserved for studio setups.
- **Aesthetic-driven Instrumentation:** Designs that prioritize iconic visual motifs and materials alongside functional electronics open pathways for instruments to become collectible art pieces with premium market value.

### Where This Applies

- **Musical Instrument Manufacturing:** Manufacturers could be disrupted by demand for bespoke, hybrid instruments that blend luthiery with advanced electronics and custom control layouts.
- **Live Performance Technology:** Stage technology ecosystems stand to shift as performers seek integrated instruments that consolidate multi-instrument workflows and effect processing onstage.
- **Luxury Custom Goods:** The intersection of high-end materials, limited-run design and artisanal craftsmanship can create a niche market for premium, design-forward musical objects.
