Not the best sounding thing in the world, but still awesome.

Interesting!!

Bald is not a good look for her.

 

[Anubis]

I think its the camera lens but something does not look right in that video, think shes sitting too close

Holy crap, never heard anything like that. It sounds like she is creating the main tone she wants through the harmonics of the two base tones. I don't even get how a voice can produce two controlled tones. Didn't know that was possible.

Westernized throat singing?

Westernized throat singing?

Pretty much, it is very similar to classic mongolian throat singing.

Actually, now that you mention it, that is the one thing I've heard like that.

Ugh I got so sick of hearing about Tuvan throat singing on NPR years ago.

 

[uhohs]

sounds like a didgeridoo mated with a erhu

Takes a while to get to it, but its a great tune by a great band.

Her eyes keep going buggy.

I got on a kick of trying that for awhile, but didn't get very far; just a tickly nose, and a sore throat.

Huun Huur Tu is fucking awesome. This video I shall watch from home, to see westernized bald woman doing attempt at Tuvan throat singing. It may impress!
