Didgeridoo Tutorial: Improve Your Sound with Mouth Shape/Compression

  • Опубліковано 3 жов 2024
  • This video covers an elusive concept I have been playing with off and on ever since Dubravko talked about it in his masterclass and online, Robet Jerele offered me a private Skype session to explore it, and Andrea Furlan hinted at it during a lesson with him as well. Compression is what I'm talking about, although I have the sense it's much more than just "compressed air" while playing. Watch to see what I mean!

    I love your videos, started playing in January and you were the most helpful in YT. I'm constantly improving my sound and my coordination, but I can sustain a pretty cool drone indefinately and create gentle beautiful soundscapes surprising myself on every session. Thanks!!

    THANK YOU! Im starting with the didge and as Im learning new rythms and stuff I think "yeah i think i got it but it doesnt sound as slick as when youtuber x does it, is it the low quality beginner didge or is it me?" I gotta apply your suggestions as soon as the house wakes up

      A lot of more subtle sounds are picked up by a microphone, too. Record one of your practice sessions and you'll be surprised at what you hear!

    When doing "ee" sounds I tend toward an "r" at the end, as in "ear." Not sure what's happening in the mouth, but I like the result. Try it and see if it helps. "Tu wah kee" becomes "Tu wah keer."

    • @Breathwood
      @Breathwood  4 роки тому +1

      Yes, I love adding the r. It's basically a variation of a curved tongue position which can be explore from the front to the back of the mouth for different effects. Thanks for sharing!

      @@Breathwood I've been definitely feeling this lack of color in the sound you talk about and I've been trying to focus the air more but only using the lips. Hearing you explain in detail the whole process definitely gave me some food for thought. Will try first thing tomorrow morning!
      This is the proper time to also mention that you've helped me a lot through your videos when i was starting out on the didge, so a big, big thank you is in order! :) :)
