I think I figured out how to do Khoomei throat singing! Not the whistling kind but the rumbling kind. After listening to a bit of the tape, I decided to try it. I tried, I got it sounding almost just like the CD, unfortunately, about 5 seconds later, my throat got sore and I couldn’t do anymore that day. In any case, it sounded exactly like the singers! Well, it doesn’t sound exactly but it’s in the ball park. Nothing practice won’t fix.
Do you know how to make your voice sound like a moterboat? You know, by using very little air and saying “aaahh” in a low grumbly tone? If you know how to do that, you can throat sing. You have your throat in the same position and add more air with your diaphram (spelled something like that). It’s easier to show in person. Also, you have to get it just right so your throat isn’t too wheezy/tight and isn’t too loose/normal. Just right so it’s edgy.
This is sooo cool!
