The Mentalists show us the possibilities with their rendition of Kids by MGMT using iPhones. The group makes use of Ocarina, Retro Synth, miniSynth and DigiDrummer Lite to perform the song live.

The Mentalists, Kim E Leon, M’Alice, Emma, and Linza are influenced by bands such as MGMT, Jimi Hendrix Experience, Flaming Lips, and The Beatles, and this cover clearly does the original justice.
