Any other didge players here? Ive been playing my cheap/crappy bamboo one for the last year and a half. Its fun although i wish i had a better one =)
man such an awesome instrument. i first had a go on what at beautiful days fest (thank you nommy) yeah ok so i wouldnt say i can really play but when you get a note out of one they sound wikked. enjoy love peace and smiles jx
Ah, yes, the didgeridoo. I have two. One is in the key of D and the other is a sliding didgeridoo and can be put to pretty much any note you like. The didg is a beautiful instrument! Ben.
in music appreciation class the other lesson, we had an entire class on the digjerido. the teacher is amazing at it also man. he played for quite a while, taught us alll about it... and we even listened to some truly ethnic northern australian aborigani music. it really inspired me to go out an find one.
i got one from a travelling market that came to my town. still am trying to work out how to circular breathe. hmph. but can make it sound like i can play it heh heh. it's so beautiful. saw a guy recently in london near the royal festival hall playing one and he had a pool of yukky spit on the floor. wow. didge is fun. my friend goff has one and plays it in his metal rock band.
i have one and can play a lil bit, the whole breathing thing is hard....... i play it with my nose when i am goofin around with my kids, they think it is hillarious!
Didge's are awesome. I make em' out of bamboo and hand paint them. I used to run with a group that would go into 'alternative' schools (for the bad kids) and we'd bring drums etc.. Kids love the didge man. I think it's because they can start out by making frrrrrrrrrrrrrrt sounds .
Oh man ive always wanted to try a sliding didge. What are they made out of and how do they sound compaired to a real one? I should look into one cause i wanna try and play with the guitar, its hard with my bamboo one because its keyed inbetween C and C#
For Sure. Yirdaki is, in my opinion, the worlds greatest instrument. I have 7 so far. All straight from Down Under. Ranging from F# to B. Great for a workout or deep meditation. Just can't get enough didge!
They are awesome! Their sound is really authentic and very smooth. They are made out of a mixture of wood colored, molded components...alternative to wood. The designs are hand-painted,too. Ben.
