Throat Singing, A Mysterious Music Art

Hi Peoples,

I stumbled upon this mysterious and marvellous way of making music. It's called throat singing, a technique which originated from Central Asia (I think). The person is able to make two different sounds at the same time using his throat. Whoaaa...

The first time I came across this was when I was watching this Japanese Swordfighting Fantasy movie called "Dororo". Below is this segment of the movie where the background music is done by throat singers called Huun Huur Tu.



Cool huh? If you think that's cool, check this guys out.




Nobody in my 27 years of life told me anything about throat singing....
The more you learn, the less you realise you know... Amazing....
