Advanced Didgeridoo Rhythm Lesson: The African 6/8 Clave

[@didgeproject]

What is the most challenging thing about learning a rhythm like this?

[@DanieleRizzitano]

To get out of my comfort zone based on 4/4 😅 thanks for this super useful tutorial! I love to explore music theory with the didge

[@schoolofmedcine]

Can you help me

[@schoolofmedcine]

I love it

[@briankane8341]

I stumbled upon this rhythm playing on my own about a year ago! It never ends! So much fun to play!

[@didgeproject]

@@briankane8341 Agreed! So fun!

[@valerie2105]

hey AJ, i have boucht a didge 10 years ago and can play every sound on it, but making realy a song or nice rhytm was realy difficult for me, you helped me a lot with your video's, and its so much mor enjoyeble now, thanks a lot for that... accualy you are the best teacher on the net

[@didgeproject]

Rock on!

[@berndrothammel1516]

Rhythms like that are less challenging when using rhythmic sentences. At least for me. In case of the african clave I once learned the sentence „the Bell is ringing loudely“ (starting with „bell“). That helped me memorizing the pattern. I never tried it on the didge, but thanks to you, I‘ll do.

Thanks!! Amazing Video and rhythm

[@mickleb]

Just bought the shirt and I am pretty excited about it!

[@carstenschwuchow1511]

Most challenging: - getting up speed: 120 150 200 ok but 320 is quiet fast. - knowing if it is good enough. When sitting and playing I don‘t know if it still sounds good during getting up speed. (adding to your comment to imitate good player and difficult tracks) So my wish is to give an example playing maybe 40 to 60 seconds the rhythm in next tutorial so i can play in duett to it. But thanks for such glory tutorials to get us better didgers:-)

[@didgeproject]

Ok we can do some very slow rhythms. Also you can slow this rhythm down quite a bit using the pro metronome app. To know if it sounds good, record yourself playing and then listen back. Also working with a didgeridoo instructor can be really helpful. Cheers!

[@schoolofmedcine]

I did it

[@rogan2001]

I always find it very difficult to use the muscles in my stomach to pull inwards on the diaphragm. I often get confused between pushing out or pulling in my stomach. I find it easier to push out. Can you confirm that it's pulling in and not pushing out which I have to master?

[@didgeproject]

Push your abs inward, i.e. toward your spine

[@rogan2001]

Just watched your video again. You say 'push your belly'. Am I actually pulling in my belly? I'm confused with this - I need your help!!!!!

[@didgeproject]

Push your abs, so yes, pull in your belly

[@blacktiger0095]

Which key is this didgeridoo in? I'm looking for a key in this range.

[@didgeproject]

This is a woodslide tuned to either C# or D

[@kieronconcannon]

I can “feel” the rhythm but I still cant count the rhythm. I get lost in the “ands”.

[@didgeproject]

Try slowing it down a lot with the metronome. Once you can clap it out slower, you can increase speed a few clicks at a time until you get it up to our speed. Cheers!

[@schoolofmedcine]

Hahaha the didgerdoo was awesome

[@schoolofmedcine]

Hey am anya am aborigene i love a didgeridoo skill yes can you get me one

[@schoolofmedcine]

And funny

[@TheSkyHive]

Circular breathing is the .out difficult thing....well, it is until the method clicks and once it does the world opens fully. I'm getting a hand pan in March 25 this year for my bday. I want so use a looper so I can use my didgeridoo ,drum,handpan,and vocoder together. How about a looping tutorial in the wild

[@didgeproject]
