Cool story bro

There are time stamps

@@DNYLNYbut in different keys

Congrats on the great find

Thanks so much. Happy to be of service.

me too n one can slide with them,

fun to move around with. enjoy it!

Hey friend, nice to meet you. It sounds like you are probably taking in too much air. Use the tips on regulating your air in this video: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mLCHlrpj3LeYgX0.html Enjoy!

Bamboo is a great beginners material for didgeridoo. Unfortunately we have seen a lot of bamboo crack within the first few years of ownership. The cracks can be repaired in many cases, but its still not ideal. The only exception to this (that I have seen) is epoxy coated bamboo didgeridoos which are very durable over time.

Hey Jeff, 1) the backpressure can be deduced by ease of playing. If you can play easily without too much exertion the. Usually this means there is good backpressure. 2) i find side-playing to be better for drone-based playing as it is much easier to get a clean full sound. I hope this helps!

Thank you Lauren. This is AJ and I very much appreciate you!

I will have to try this

Beard stubble can be challenging to play with. Either shave clean or grow out a longer beard. This should solve the problem.

Whats the maximum length your are willing to go with? The meinl sliced pro might be a great option but i think its about 3 or 3.5 feet when packed

@@didgeproject thanks for quick response 🙏 3.5 feet would work because my saddle bag is about two feet deep. So I don’t mind the Didge sticking out 1.5 feet. Would this be your choice for a beginner to have best, most fun, easiest experience learning the Didge. I know very little about backpressure, beeswax mouthpieces etc. Just want an instrument that will keep me motivated to keep learning. I live in Austin TX and there are many Didge players and teachers so once I buy an instrument going to find a teacher. I am a musician and been playing guitar for my whole life. I also own few DJembes and sit on in the drum circles, but the Didge & handpan are my next instruments. Do you sell this Didge and if so what is the cost. I got to admit that carbon Airdidge looks dope but if you think this would be a better didge to learn on I am interested in purchasing it. Do you sell it and if so what’s the cost? Not sure if I have seen your website. Thanks again for quick response.

@@director2bob The plastic travel didgeridoo in this video is very easy to learn on, more compact and lightweight, but the Meinl Sliced Pro is a heavier didge with a bigger, louder sound and is also very easy to play. SO either way you will be happy. Niether of them require beeswax. Yes we sell both of these didges, check the prices out at didgeproject.com/store (both are relatively inexpensive). Airdidge is also really sweet but it's twice the cost of either of the aforementioned didges. Feel free to call us (phone number on our site) if you want to ask us more questions directly - AJ Block, didgeproject.com

@@didgeproject Thanks again for quick reply and info. I decided to buy a collapsible didge and I couldn’t make up my mind between the plastic and Airdidge until I heard Jerry Walsh doing the beatbox on Airdidge and was blown away. I am sure he could do that on any didge but once I saw the slide & tune accessory I knew this was the instrument because It can play in any key and I love jamming and creating music with other musicians. I turned 60 last week so just entered the 4th quarter of life (hopefully game goes into overtime) and going to make this last quarter the best musical years of my life and going all in. But this type of music using acoustic instruments like Didges, handpans, Ravs, flutes etc is brand new ground for me so I am so stoked & grateful to have found the didge project because you are musicians that not only play these unique instruments but teach & also sell the gear you use so I trust whatever you guys recommend and going to use you exclusively for all my future purchases. I have been wanting to do something unique with get into this world of acoustic music for past few years but never pulled the plug because I was too overwhelmed by all the different online stores, manufacturers, nuances between Handpans or Ravs, key signatures etc, so finding your store is a blessing. Perfect example is next instrument I am buying after Didge and will use you guys exclusively for my future gear will be a Handpan or Rav. I can’t figure out which one would be a better fit for me, which manufacture to buy if it’s a Handpan, which key(s) to get as I would like to own more than one etc. All I know is I want to make sure everything I buy from you guys sounds harmonically correct with the previous gear I purchased from you will so it will keep creating this expanding synergy of supernatural sounds that play nicely together. Using one store and creating a relationship makes life so much easier and you will know and use all the gear I plan on buying and can recommend what you knows sounds the best when played together (of course it’s all about the musician playing the instruments) but certain keys and instruments just sound better harmonically when played together. So I can trust you guys to make sure I am buying gear that always is harmonically correct. I have been playing electric guitar since I was a kid and into blues, funk, rock & metal so I have a head start because I understand theory and have a good ear for music. But my musical tastes have changed and I am way more into unconventional creativity and dig bands like Sphongle that don’t sound like everyone else. This old dude even loves EDM & bands like Infected Mushroom that sonically sound unique and produce some dope tracks. So I am going all in with music and starting my new journey with the Airdidge I am buying next week. I am going to have to call you on Monday or Tuesday to place order as I have a bunch of gift cards I got for bday and need to combine them to make the purchase. The only thing that I am a tad confused about is mouthpiece. I believe unit comes with a 32 mm mouthpiece but also saw you sell both a 30 & 28 mm mouthpiece accessory. I also read that a beeswax mouthpiece can be used with unit. So my question is how do you determine what type of mouthpiece to use and the optimal size for a person? Do I need to take some type of measurement of my mouth or send you a picture of my face? Probably sounds like a dumb question but there is a reason they make different types & sizes a d because I am a complete beginner I want to make sure I get mouthpiece that will make learning this instrument as easy and enjoyable as possible. We can also chat about my next purchase which will be a handpan or Rav and which one you recommend as well as key signature or model. I have a home recording studio (Ableton) and all types of software & outboard gear so can’t wait to see what type of new sonic territory I am about to explore. Sorry for long post but just getting back into playing after taking a 5 year hiatus to due a bad accident and then the pandemic hitting so stoked to have my mojo back and finding you guys online. I am in NY now visiting family & friends celebrating my birthday and will be back in Austin on August 12th so really looking forward to having the Airdidge waiting for me when I return. 👁🙏

@@director2bob happy to be of service. we love this music and so we really try to put good information out there and answer every question we get. you can always comment on our videos, email us or call us if you have specific questions. for mouthpiece size, it's mostly personal preference. I (AJ) tend to prefer smaller inner diameter mouthpieces around 1 1/8" (which is closer to the 30" insert for airdidge), while some people like up to 1 1/2" and some as small as 1 1/16". You really need to have the didge in hand and play it for a while to see if you need a bigger or smaller mouthpiece. if you have more specific questions about purchases, its probably better to email or call us so we can help you make a decision. when picking a rav vast for example, you might want to evaluate what other instruments you might be playing with and many other factors. Looking forward to supporting you on your musical journey!

Wow that’s a great price. Where did you buy it?

@@didgeproject hampi, India. In land from Goa. I could have bargain for 25$ but I didnt feel like it

@@phantazzor Yes, our plastic didgeridoos are also made in India, however we have to import them and go through a distributor. This is why we need to charge the price that we do. If we were in India only selling in India we could probably also sell them for $50 each at a good profit but this is not a reality with us being in the USA importing these instruments. Thanks for your question!

@@didgeproject would you sell them cheaper if they were not going to the us ? I'm based in Thailand, we can talk by email if you want

@@phantazzor Feel free to email us at info@didgeproject.com. We generally cannot price discriminate based on location, however we are happy to speak to you. Cheers!

Thanks for this great addition to our video. I agree with you that the playing style is hugely important. This video merely skims the surface of what different didgeridoos might offer to the player. Happy to hear that you know the Airdidge and Woodslide well and can speak to the advantages of each, as well as eucalyptus. It sounds like you perform on stage and do sound healing work, so it's great to hear why you find each type of didge better for each type of activity. If there's anything else you have to add, please feel free. Thanks so much!

@@didgeproject You're welcome!

Thanks for sharing. There are a lot of different options out there in each of these categories. Maybe the eucalyptus you got is a dud? Cheers!

I'm not surprised and but where did you get the eucalyptus didgeridoo.? You didn't get it from these guys did you

@@arieswaters from a company called Terré

check out this video: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oK6JgcSlrtunl5s.html

Thank You. We get criticized either way we say it, so you may hear it both ways on our channel. Didge players usually pronounce it yucka, as you suggest.

This is wonderful feedback. Can you tell us where you get your information and how people can find out more about what you are saying?

@@didgeproject Thank you, yes of course. 🤗Please search the web for "didgeridoo-physik". There you will find a resource that has existed since the late 1990s. 👍About 85% of the content is also available in English. Feel free to have look on it.

All Sounds good here. What device are you listening on?

@@didgeproject You don't know nothing for a good sound 🍼👶🍼

Didgeridoos are sonic tools for higher consciousness

Frequency/sound healing is an actual thing!

The sounds and vibrations put one into a meditative state, allowing access to higher levels of consciousness

You're making them all puke!!!

So poor people just shouldn't brr into a tube to make funny sounds because some people invented it thousands of years ago and now you can only buy an expensive wooden one from them? Preposterous
