That dude needs to go back into recovery.

haha! - you mean the white dude? That's a pretty old video, I think he's gotten his ghosts sorted out since then. Still got the *Theramin, though

 

(*Theramin is not a psychoactive drug, much as it may sound that way)

[Marblehead]

Hehehe. Do you remember The Who? Those dudes needed help too.

 

So I had to look up "Theramin". Related to the Moog. I could do a little something like that with my radio reciever when I was in the Army. Tune in on a good signal and adjust the BFO (beat frequency oscillator) control and it almost sounded like music.

 

Yeah, that video was a little too "new age" for me. I do have some Emerson, Lake and Palmer records though.

this is the most well-known use of the Theramin ever, starts at about the 30 second mark:

Glad you liked it. I'm a big fan of throat-singing and found this group just recently. All their songs sound good, here's another one:

That first one had lots of Arabic/(Asian)Indian influence in it. Sounded like some of the Bollywood music I have.

 

The second one, except for the pretty dancing lady, was too rooty for me. Yes, it was good for what it was but I like more instruments in the music I listen to.

The singing is actually local traditional styles

 

More Finnish(edit: actually to be specific Karelian) singing close to trad:

 

Modern Sámi folk with yoik singing:

Yes, the first one is what I would have expected from that part of the world.

 

Interesting how the second one sounds like a Native American chant except it would have been sung by a man.
