How To Play Techno With the Jaw Harp

4 жыл бұрынWhat??? The Jaw Harp can sound like that?
I go over many different techniques to shape the sound and pitch of the jaw harp that works really well for techno music, making use of the unique synthesized-sounding properties of the jaw harp!
If you are new to the Jaw Harp and want to get the basics, I put all of them right here. • How To Play the Jaw Harp

Perhaps there were ancient Roman discos, Mongolian mosh pits, and Mayan death beat harps. I bet there were lots of crazy things we have no clue about happening in the past when it comes to music. Ancient cultures were also probably way more advanced than what we give them credit for. There are some unique vibrations I hear some folks play that I still having figured out that sound very techno. It's like this weird vibration mode they can get their harps to do.

I love the imagery of your comment. I agree! I wish we could listen to some ancient musicians and better understand what it was like back then.

Man actually is thousands years old. It is coming from asia. Mongols have used, maybe huns also. It is used also in the east europe in folk music eaven now. maybe was borrowed from mongol turkic people from central asia. Bravo and congrats for your lessons/discoveries.

I have tried looking for jaw harps at music stores and usually they have the Grover harps, which are just okay. I really enjoy the Potkin Vargan that they sell at www.theharpery.com/potkin-vargan He gets his harps all over the world. So, if you aren't able to find what you want at the store that shop I just linked has a lot of awesome options

The first synthesiser you could describe as a synthesiser is a pipe organ. They imitate other instruments such as flutes, oboes, trumpets, tuba, clarinets, strings and other instruments in orchestras. The jaw harp will always sound like a jaw harp, it doesn't aim to recreate the sound of anything synthetically.
@SoundAdventurer 2 ай бұрын
yeah, I think in those terms that's true. I was just saying that he jawharp sounds like a sawtooth synth.

1:07 The hardest part for me while doing this is to not breath out at the same rhytm i pick the harp at.... i can hear it almost working for very little time but then i just keeps synchronizing, i have no idea how to stop it, i don't think i was ever able to tap out 2 different rhytms with my hands let alone my breathing, are there any exercises for this?
@blaketto 6 ай бұрын
or i just completely lose my breathing rhytm when it starts to work
@SoundAdventurer 6 ай бұрын
yeah, that is tough. the harp makes a difference, too. some harps don't keep resonating unless you are breathing at the same time which makes it tricky.

@SoundAdventurer 3 жыл бұрын
Wow, great question--I think that could actually be pretty tough on your braces. If you have Invisalign it *might* be okay? You definitely could play a Dan Moi, though, since they do not require pressure on your teeth but have a similar sound (although they are definitely different)

I wonder if the Jaw Harp is painful to play if you have numerous fillings/crowns in your teeth. Since the instrument rests on your teeth, I can just picture fillings and crowns slowly getting vibrated right out of the player’s mouth. 🫨
@earthexperiments1947 3 ай бұрын
Actually it shouldn't be that painful! Maybe teeth are more sensitive, but pain shouldn't be that present. Especially because the teeth are just like a support for the Jaw Harp, so you're actually not biting it ^^
