Nadishana - khomus in 7/8 (jaw harp solo)

[@phraktl]

He is like a mad musical genius. I've watched his videos for over a decade. His creativity and authenticity are just incredible. He's got more talent than most ensembles have collectively.

[@majicogarcia8417]

Come up for air bro.

[@bridgetboudreaux9832]

Now, THAT is how to be a creative musician!!! You ROCK!!!! I just discovered this instrument a few months ago & now I have 3 & two more on their way to me. I have 2 from Russia & one from Vietnam. I love them all, but I can now tell the difference in sounds when I play them. Can’t wait to get the others in the mail!!!

[@pierrotpi2086]

Salut je trouve kel a un son exceptionnelle et super varié splendide Merci pour cette vidéo à bientôt 😉💞

[@kai_plays_khomus]

Absolut beeindruckend. Ich bin süchtig nach diesem Instrument, dessen Klänge gleichzeitig archaisch und postmodern sind, und das so unglaublich variantenreich und geschichtsträchtig ist. Danke für diese überragende Performance!

[@BeorhtFrognostic]

I admire and applaud your virtuosity in playing this instrument.

[@sergeyevtushenko7081]

Братан, это космос! Просто нет слов, чтобы описать свои эмоции! Спасибо за то что ты есть!

[@imakecostumes]

Dude, when you play, it is like you are rewriting physics or sound theory or something! Wonderful!! Thank you for sharing! Any chance of being in Pennsylvania, North America anytime soon? We got some music fests where you would rock out the crowd!

[@iam1smiley1]

Contact the north american jaw harp association

[@michaelcorriveau6123]

You are amazing. Good job.

[@Boogieforme]

You remind me everytime, that jaw harp IS an awesome instrument by itself.

[@dionwalcott9677]

I think of western tv shows and movies when I hear that cool instrument play

[@sobeit42]

Wow this is incredible. Your techniques are awesone

[@jonathanryals9934]

Cool song! Great finger/hand work, I love the visually expressive play, it's something I'm trying to improve on myself.

[@argeancomics3291]

you were born to make music. It flows naturlly as a breath

[@igoryegin9531]

Kraftwerk without electronics.

[@ConanfreakLP]

Wow such a great performance. I know it's a longshot but how du you make those higher sound (it seems to me you change the base frequency and not only the overtones) I can't understand how you produce them. It does not look and sound like the pedaling technique. Would be very interesting to know how to produce this high destorted sound!

[@TrevorPatton]

sounds awesome ...I would love to see a collaboration with you and Diplo

[@TachyBunker]

That's awesomeee!

[@lavalizard3]

That is beyond cool.

[@Scheltokeeper]

Awsome skills! Really good. Which model of the russian altai khomus by V. Potkin do you use for this video? The round (Potkin I), open (Potkin II) or angular (Potkin III) variant? I play with a german D key jew's harp made by "Schlütter". Damn good tuned instruments, but i'm considering to buy a potkin altaian khomus, cause it has a different unique sound.

[@TheFoolishSamurai]

That is quite impressive.

[@dancing_all_night_long]

WOW ! ! ! Amazing ! ! !

[@chandracix]

Geniale !!!!!

[@ScottSennheiser]

Looks like similar and sounds familiar it's called Karinding in West Java, Indonesia.

[@charlesprzygoda]

What harp are you using?

[@suzystokes1191]

Oh, so that’s how it’s supposed to sound! Ha! Terrific

[@tambourinh]

how the fuck are you doing, this high metallic bing voice? I have no idea

[@BrachioMentis]

Cool stuff! I try to get that special tone you do. The one where you seem to pluck the spring 90 degrees from the normal way. I tried this, I get that sound but its not that clear and loud as you do in the video. Would be awsome if you could give some hints in proper technique to get it work well !

[@meddlesomemusic]

Depends on the harp. Some reeds sound a secondary tone very loudly when plucked in on themselves, others don't

[@eblisdolphin1306]

his good mic and mixing also helps sound of harp without a doubt

[@studycrammer]

amazing

[@bangersfuzzy]

Klasse Style so ne Maultrommel zu spielen. Klasse, Gefällt mir. Gruß aus der Eifel.

[@Candidus1000]

GREAT!!!

[@parmupillikanal]

nice technique

[@CalebRexAlexander]

I just bought my first one today and I can't do it either. I guess it depends on the responsiveness of the metal "tongue" on your instruments.

[@oklufbokluf2839]

Mostly it's just practice. After 6 years of interest and practice u should be a pro now. Are u?

[@aldar98]

Hello Nadishana, I took about a month and a half ago 3 mouth harps; as I discovered them I've became intrigued in some sonorities that some of you do. I was wondering if some techniques are exclusive to which mouth harps you are using? I have two hmong and a morchang. I am able to prolonge the sound after a pluck for a good amount of time but I haven't found out how to initiate the tongue in vibrating through only respiration. How is it done and are there mouth harps that are better for that?

[@iam1smiley1]

Check out Bebbcorp harpery YT channel for some awesome lessons

[@j3226]

WOW! That was incredible! I'm trying to figure out how to do all those techniques. xD For some reason, my jaw harp won't make any noise if I blow through it without plucking. Like at 3:00 in the video.

[@kai_plays_khomus]

If your harp isn't able to produce this effect, you have to use a finger of the holding hand to push the reed carefully a bit (probably one millimeter) out of its frame, away from your lips. Then you have to inhale powerful to reach the needed underpressure which bends the reed back to the frame and starts the vibration. Blowing the harp without plucking needs a reed which is minimal out of level with the frame.

[@TachyBunker]

He's using the vibrations of the last pkuck actually

[@382EAguilar]

Very kool

[@Wazari100]

Super ! ! !

[@egelweiss]

amaizing!!!

[@lukevajsar]

Nice!

[@ShedtechVictum]

What key is this jaw harp in?

[@fs10inator]

E

[@Astronaut76]

Dam he is good!

[@A7rMusic]

Badass!

[@zab666]

I didn't know you could do an overtone with a jaw harp.

[@kai_plays_khomus]

Actually overtone melodys are what they are made for - since the mouth harp was nearly extincted in the western world because of the harmonica/blues harp (which is close related, in fact a construction of several tiny mouth harps in one case) it is probably the most underestimated instrument - but there is a community of masters worldwide which works hard to regain the popularity it has for thousands of years, spread over whole eurasia - which definitly was not the result of the same well known cartoon-sound of a spring again and again ;)

[@-th1rty3-]

Me who just bought a jaw harp: okay, it might be a good idea for a nostalgic value but, goddamn this guy makes it look like a toy.

[@daliasify]

wow!

[@StudmanBelfast]

Sick!!!! this guy got it pop-pen ;0)
