Google Doodle celebrated the 112th birthday of innovative electronic musician and German physicist Oscar Sala. Oskar Sala is known for developing and pioneering the mix-troutonium, which introduced a unique sound to television, radio and films. According to the Google Doodle page, “Salas, known for creating sound effects on a musical instrument called the Mix-Trutonium, electrified the worlds of television, radio and film.”
Oscar Sala, a pioneer of electronic music, was born in 1910 in Greze, Germany and reportedly immersed in music from birth, his mother being a singer and his father, an ophthalmologist with musical talent. At the age of 14, the musical talent made his debut and started creating compositions and songs for instruments like violin and piano.
According to the Google Doodle page, “When Sala first heard an instrument called the trautonium, he was fascinated by the tonal possibilities and technique of that instrument.” Apparently his mission in life became true troutonium, leaving an indelible mark, which developed and inspired his further studies in physics and composition.
“This new focus inspired Sala to develop his own instrument called the Mix-Trutonium. With his education as a composer and an electro-engineer, he created electronic music that distinguishes his style from others. Trutonium Its architecture is so unique, according to the Google Doodle page, that it was able to play multiple voices or voices at once.”

Interestingly, the instrument produced noises that sounded entirely like bird cries, hammers and door and window slams, which led to Oscar Sala receiving several awards for his work. Oscar Sala became very famous as he gave many interviews, met many artists and was honored in radio broadcasts and films.
Notably in the year 1995, Oskar Sala reportedly donated his original mix-troutonium to the German Museum for Contemporary Technology and created the Quartet-Trutonium, Concert Troutonium and Volkstratonium. “His foray into electronic music opened up the realm of subharmonics. With his dedication and creative energy, he became a one-man orchestra. Happy birthday, fuckin Oscar!” Google Doodle page shared.
