WATCH THIS WACKY RENDITION OF 'BLUE MONDAY' PLAYED WITH 1930'S INSTRUMENTS

Orkestra Obsolete are behind the New Order reboot... 

New Order's 'Blue Monday' is the classic '80s party jam that dance fans know and love! But what would it have sounded like if it had been made 50 years earlier?

The brains behind BBC Arts have investigated the prospect, with the help of Okestra Obsolete, and made an impressive short film about it — here's what they had to say via their website:

'In a special film, using only instruments available in the 1930s — from the theremin and musical saw to the harmonium and prepared piano — the mysterious Orkestra Obsolete present this classic track as you've never heard it before.'
