Oh, that video is amazing. It is obvious that (if it is not fake) there were some people struggeling hard to make everything move smooth and sound (sort of) musical. Well done...
Not just a bass, this is an Alembic!

What's the big deal?  I've seen plenty of robots on stage . . . . even played with a few.

Actually, no joysticks were used.  The quadrotors are autonomous.  Skynet, here we come...
 
Quadrotors
 
Amazing how they are smart enough to generate momentum to complete maneuvers where their lift is negated, such as the inverted perch.
