Roland launches Minions keyboard

Roland, the company behind iconic drum machines and synthesizers, released a Minions-themed keyboard called the GO:KEYS 3 Minion, part of its GO line for beginners.

Bright yellow with character voices

The keyboard is bright yellow with Minion images and a blue trim representing their overalls. It includes thirty-two Minions-themed sound variations featuring the voices of Bob, Kevin and Stuart.

Minions singing classical music

Roland released samples showing the results. You can hear Blue Danube sung by the anthropomorphic yellow characters, as originally intended by composer Johann Strauss.

“You haven't lived until hearing Blue Danube sung by anthropomorphic yellow blobs, as originally intended by composer Johann Strauss.”
