Didgeridoo Tutorial: The WeeAhWonga Rhythm
Here's a simple rhythm that can be quite mesmerising to play. You can play the rhythm in different ways to create a different feel to it. If you use your cheeks for circular breathing, you can get that 'wong' sound by squeezing in cheeks rather than using the jaw or tongue (as in jaw/tongue circular breathing). Most importantly, have fun practising!
If you would like to hear this rhythm when I recorded it on an album in 2011, just click on the link below and scroll down to Tukka Dawn album and click on track Primal Vibe.

A Simple Approach To The Didgeridoo Papa Wobble

The Papa Wobble - two techniques combined as one. Hope you all have fun trying this technique and plenty of patience in practise and developing it. It may well be a challenge and take some time to develop it but it can add feeling, beat and pace to your repertoire of didge playing. I first stumbled upon a jaw wobble many years ago in my playing/practise. Though I was also shown a tongue wobble ...
Enhance Your Didgeridoo Playing With The Power of Feeling
มุมมอง 3345 หลายเดือนก่อน
Although technique is essential for good didge playing, 'feeling' or emotion can also help take it to another level. In this video, I give my perspective on these important aspects of didge playing. Techniques are an invaluable resource in the armoury of didgeridoo playing, yet techniques performed on the didge without 'feeling' can remain empty, hollow and without substance as with anyone who ...

If you have a fear of playing in front of an audience, this video will hopefully be helpful. It covers my own fear about playing in front of people and how I overcame it Sometimes some people overcome their fears just by doing the thing and confronting it but for some who have and have had deeper fears, like myself, that doesn't work by itself and other approaches are required.
