This man is one of the pioneers of the new age of beatbox. What a legend. Speaking of which, you should check something recent from him. Here's a vid he did in 2021. Tom Thum 🇦🇺 | Judge Showcase | SBX Kickback Battle 2021

I met Tom way back in 2005. I was doing freestyle bmx shows and tom was doing what he does best. He was a beast way back then! I've retired from bmx a while back, but so great seeing Tom still doing his thing and getting the recognition he deserves! Such a great guy...

You saw Tom Thum in his tag team loopstation battles with Gene vs Saro and MB14, and the collab the 4 of them did together without loopstations. He’s doing a lot of crazy stuff on TikTok now, I wish he would upload more stuff to KZfaq.

This guy is awesome. I love that beatboxing made an epic comeback and has been taken to another level in recent years. The very first beatboxer I ever heard was Doug E. Fresh way back in 1984. But I think Darren from "The Fat Boys" did it first in 1980. Whereas Doug E. Fresh 'may' have been the first to use beatbox as the only music for a full track called "La Di Dah Di" (1986) featuring "MC Ricky D" (more commonly known as "Slick Rick"). Doug also invented the "click-roll" which numerous contemporary beatboxers still use today. ...Hmm, sharing this information has made me feel very old all of a sudden. (I'm 45 and got into Hip-Hop at age 7) I still remember people back in the 80's saying it was just a silly temporary trend that would never last more than a few years. They would never have guessed someone would get a standing ovation in an opera house in 2013. I wish I could go back in time and show them this to see the looks on their smug faces, lol

Well, I know how I make the static noise. I slur my saliva. Basically I gather a medium sized amount of saliva in my mouth. Not too much, not too little. Then I press the left and right sides of my gums against the middle left and right sides of my upper teeth. While doing so I make a very breathy vocalized "key", holding it out for a period of time. Kind of half way between saying "key" and a hiss. Then while doing so - keeping the gums and teeth still in the same place - I push the air/sound down and slightly back into my throat. Then I hold it there while the whole time still retaining the saliva and that's where the crackling sound comes in. Then, while still keeping the same gums and teeth position, I can move my mouth forward and back, open and, closed, etc. and get different tones and sounds. And if at the same time I actually vocalize a breathy "k-you-wee" or "wicky" while moving my mouth at the same time they start to become scratch sounds. And then to officially make them scratch sounds I take "k-you-wee" or "wicky" and use the same technique but repeat one of them a few times in a row fast. And all the while still keeping the saliva there. Using the saliva as the basis for the sound. Kinda like bending the saliva sound.
