Twin “Flux” Jaw Harps - The Boxcar Harp Co.
Jamie Bebb of www.theharpery.com (@bebbcorpharpery7331 )has been gracious enough to provide me with the spring steel to make most of my harps (Flux and Surge series) so to thank him for his time in preparing and sending me materials, as well as continued jaw harp related mentorship, I made him one of two “Twin Fluxes.” I made Jamie’s first. I was so happy with it, I wanted one just like it. So it was also a bit of a test of my own craftsmanship; to see how consistent I could make two harps.

    Cool! I've never heard that thing played so well or like that at all. It sounds kinda like rave music and it could be awesome mixed with other instruments live. A record and scratching table, drums, maybe some sick guitar playing with that might make really great tunes.

    • @BoxcarBetts
      @BoxcarBetts День тому

      Thank you so much! First of all, nice handle. Pink Floyd is one of my absolute favourites. Second, I’m primarily a drummer and have been collaborating with the same guys since high school and started experimenting with the crappy Snoopy harp I had. After I broke it and bought a REAL harp, the world has opened up. Like you said, it’s like rave music, but coming from a tiny little harp held against the teeth! I have lots of ideas to incorporate the jaw harp into our music and have even assembled a small playlist of original music featuring the jaw harp.

    Hey, man. Nice jaw harps, and nice playing! I don't know how many you're making, but I'd like to offer my abilities as a skilled scroll sawyer, to you. I bought one of these instruments which came in a lovely plywood case with a burnt on logo, it has holes to add it to a necklace. I could make you specific shaped boxes to sell these in for next to nothing. Made right here in Georgia, USA. I'm just a guy, not a company salesman. I only see notifications when a video creator likes my comment, so if you're interested, like this comment and say 'hey' sometime. If not, I wish you luck anyhow and wanna say I admire your craftsmanship.

    I have a jaw harp from a trip as a kid to the St. Louis arch and zoo back in the late 80's. No idea why it was in either gift shop to begin with, but I thought I needed it. I've picked it up on and off over the years but never really stuck. Your demonstration is the first I've seen that really made me see how cool they can sound, thanks! I had no idea how many kinds there were either.

      100%. Anthropologically speaking (holy crap I spelled that right the first time), all music stems from the most primitive of musical instruments: the voice, and the tendency to create rhythm based on - you guessed it - the heart beat. Music is in all of us and can be brought out in limitless ways. Right after humming, the next thing we did was start tapping twigs and rocks together.

      In English, jew’s harp, mouth harp, and jaw harp are the most common terms, but there are also regional terms depending on where in the world it is from. This one is a drymba from Ukraine whereas it would be known as a vargan in most of Russia and khomus from Siberia.

The triplet is an easy thing to get down if you understand it, so I’ll actually go over some music theory with my practice pad so people can see how it counts out. It adds a cool swing without having to get into weird-ass time signatures.
