I went through a deep, deep, DEEP youtube hole to get here. You know what video I started on? The don't stop me now music video. Over the past 7 hours, I started at don't stop me now, and went deeper and deeper until I came to, realizing that I was watching a video about playing the jaw harp. The worst part is that I was pretty much in a trance-like state. I was watching, and clicking new videos, and liking, but basically sleepwalking. I basically woke up watching this video, except I wasn't asleep. I've had enough internet for today.
My grandfather passed recently and I found a jaw harp amongst his old stuff, and decided to try and play it, thanks so much for helping, it means a lot!
Lamb OfGod You might try a dan moi for your time in braces. Ultra gnarly sound, and easily played against the lips. Also what harp are you playing? Love the name. I have seen L.o.g. Twice in concert and they killed it both times.
It’s incredible that this device can be incorporated into metal music, but if you haven’t checked them out already, take a look at The HU. Such amazing sound from an instrument when used in tandem with other traditional instruments.
It's amazing how quickly you can begin to make sounds with a decent harp. I just received my paval potkin I ordered from Bebbcorp Harpery and surprised myself when I began to make sounds with it by the time this tutorial video ended.
I’m getting one for my son for Christmas. He’s been asking for one for a while now. It’s sure going to be fun the next few weeks while he learns how to play it, lol.
Because it makes little to no sound. It can also be dangerous and not safe for teeth. Real jaw harps make awesome sound and are relatively safe. Snoop is not.
I love how much passion is in all of your videos and how enthusiastic and supportive you are towards beginners! My harp will be in the mail tomorrow, I'm so excited to begin and your videos have taught me a lot already. :)
Thanks for sending me the link 😊 just great, now I know where I was going wrong about 50 years ago 😅 😕 😳, you wouldn't think that I've gone all these years not knowing. Maybe one day soon I might just go and buy another and, maybe it might be better quality than was available back then. Just turned 71 on 16th February so maybe there's still time. Thanks again and happy harping. Keep well, stay safe. Cheers 🍻 mate Les.
How can something so simple and small be so excellent??!! I always loved the mysterious vibrant sound of the jaw harp so I bought it for my black metal band. And the drummer sent me this video saying "This dude taught me how to play the jaw harp!" Now all I want to say to Bebbcorp Harpery is: thank you for your well presented instructions
Warner Bros cartoons (Looney Toons, etc) and Disney use the jaw harp for boing effects… examples include Tigger the Tiger’s bouncy tail and Tom & Jerry cartoons when one of them gets violent whacked and they space out.
I remember my grandmother had one of these in the junk drawer. I just figured out now that it must have been my uncle's. Never knew how to use it. Good to see.
Wearing a Mastadon shirt and playing a gentle instrument like this is the best thing I've seen all day. 🤘 I'm subscribing just for that but also cuz you seem to be a good teacher. Buying my jaw harp today and am looking forward to learning. Thanks brother!
I just purchased a dan moi and the samurai jaw harp and learned how to play within minutes of opening the package! What a blast and an amazingly interesting instrument this is. Everyone needs to at least try these out, it will bring so much joy and fun into your life and others.
Bro thank you so much I won a jaw harp at a little cowboy game and I didn’t know how to use it so I searched it up on TH-cam but it didn’t help but your ,cause you explained it so clearly thank you so much have a awesome day.
Thanks for the video! Just got myself a jaw harp and had no idea what I was doing. Still got a way to go but this has definitely put me in the right direction!
My husband just found a really old one in his mom's neighbors garage, so i came here to learn how to use it...after years of hearing him talk about these things! Really cool, Thanks!
I just bought one today (a cheap one) but thanks to you I am getting the hang of it already. Thank you man! Can't wait to see more of you're videos in the near future
Hyper Stormy the metal piece that you flick hit the edge of my tooth and chipped it and it ended up hitting the inner part of my lip a few times busting it open
I was curious about the sound this instrument makes. Once you started playing, I envisioned all the old western/cartoon sound effects from my childhood. Thank you for the lesson, and for wearing that shirt!
Yes. The cartoons are using jaw harps. Warner Bros (Looney Toons, etc) and Disney use the jaw harp for boing effects… examples include Tigger the Tiger’s bouncy tail and Tom & Jerry cartoons when one of them gets violently whacked and they space out.
It actually made me search about that instrument and I couldn’t belive it, that instrument has actually a really old history. So it’s actually maded by original Turks when they were in Central Asia (Modern Turks live in Anatolia as we know Turkey) Wow! Just amazing, definitely gonna start it!!
Oh so it takes awhile to find the sweet spot? Cause I feel like mine isn’t working haha. What was the thing that “clicked” in your mind that allowed you to get it?
I've always wanted a jaw harp and ended up purchasing a cheaper one just to get an idea. I Was beyond confused by the instructions on the website sense they didn't explain well anything hahah. But i absolutely appreciate this tutorial the amount of fun to be had
Have fun. Just beware of the cheap snoopy harp, hillbilly jaw harp, bluegrass jaw harp and it’s many variants. They make no sound and can break your teeth.
Unlike some of these other commenters, I came here on purpose. I just bought a jewsharp in a NC hardware store and I'm so glad I searched this video. I was definitely doing it completely wrong!
Mastodon!! I’m not a big metal fan, but my band played a show next door to those guys in Pontiac, Michigan. The guitar player was a really humble, cool guy and a real character. And I must say, they sounded absolutely incredible. Warning: please wear hearing protection at any metal concert.
I only bought one because it was an old school sound effect for springs in animations. This thing has kicked my backside for a few days now. Thank you.
Instruments like the Jaw Harp and the Cuica were so prevalent in the music for cartoons and games when I was a kid, but I never knew what they were called or how they worked. I legitimately thought that the cuica was a vocal sample, up until I heard someone say "That monkey yell sound you always hear in tropical music for games, that's a drum" It's really fascinating to learn about all this stuff, I'd love to learn how to play both of em
Nice collection, I just ordered a new Jaw harps and two vintage ones, hopefully I can learn to make some music and not just noise. My wife may not be too happy with my new hobby, probably gonna drive her crazy.
I'm gonna get this instrument someday before too long. My neighbors are gonna love my tribal neofolk harsh noise dark ambient music. Howls of agony and triumph accompanied by the twangy wah wahs of a mouth harp, glass breaking rhythmically alongside the constant drone of a power drill.
My son is autistic and he LOVES music, I'm getting him one for Christmas,think he could learn it with out getting mad?.... I could probably learn and teach him? I can't carry a tune in a bucket any tips?🌹
My son is seriously autistic, loves trance, minimal techno, etc. Something connects at a deep level of the spirit. I’m going to try playing this for him.
This instrument has a long history of being used to alter consciousness. It is good to hear that it helps your son to venture into the deep. Happy travels.
im autistic, i always struggled learning new things because i would get frustrated and overwhelmed. i had trouble knowing when it was okay to take a break!! breaks are underestimated in their power. a sensory break for me, (silencing headphones, dim lighting) was key when learning a noisy instrument that was so loud and near my ears. it would have been nice to have a nice mum like you help me know when to take a break, so maybe thats how you can help him? :) i know im a year late, i hope it went well!!!
I'm thinking of the movie, Death To Smoochy and learning to play this instrument. My dad also told me a lot about this instrument when I was a child. From a little town in England. Innovation travels
I bought a cheap snoopy harp once, and the tanger was out of line straight from the box... I managed to get it to sound without clanging by applying steady sideways pressure on the twanger for a minute. Of course this was a crimped style connection I wouldn't recommend that on any real harp.
I have had my jaw harp for around 15 years, I have gotten it from my dad but never knew how to play it. Thanks to this video I finally do. So here I am in bed at 01:35 at night playing the heck out of my harp. Sorry neighbors. Thanks Bebbcorp Harpery 🙏🏻
While I cannot comment on that at the moment, I would add that there are many ways to help to immerse yourself in the experience. The one you stated is perfectly reasonable. If I was to add any advice I would say use your method, but also be kind and empathetic to all life surrounding you. Walk and play amongst the trees. Go to your garden and touch and talk to the plants. Rescue and relocate insects. All of these things before your harp meditation will help to deepen the experience. Play with your eyes closed. Surrender to the harp and abandon all ego. These are a few things that will, “immerse,” you in the experience, or sometimes called, “altering your state.” I am also fond of getting up and dancing while playing the harp for meditation, (not while on camera, lol). Anyways continue to do practices to immerse yourself. You never know how far down the rabbit hole goes. If you happen upon a hole in your travels follow it down a bit. Last piece of advice, if you are down to get weird, check out the book, “The Way of the Shaman,” by Micheal Harner, a famous anthropologist. Many of the things in this book and the exercises translate directly over to the jaw harp. I am about halfway through it and am loving the book and exercises. Enjoy. 😉
Bebbcorp Harpery yeah bro, I’m 34, have picked up the instrument fairly easily as I’ve played sax, clarinet n digerdoo, I find it most harmonious after a few beers n a pipe, With ur matesaround a fireplace,ive subbed to u bro, appreciate ur videos that r very matter of fact n common sense,
Eh...perhaps I can get and play one later..right now I'm still in the first 1 to 2 months of healing up from dental implant surgery so any kind of vibration near the teeth like that may not be good for the bones as they regrow around the rods..I'd have to ask the surgeon who put them in if a jaw harp is okay..if they even know what that is lol.
Close your eyes and listen to Jason Batemen tell you how to play a weird instrument
💀
Same
How did I even get here?? Love it though.
aaaaaaaaaaand now I can't unhear that.
Jason Bateman cares not for the suffering of those who hear his utterances.

I just searched for jaw harp
I just searched up old west instruments
in you trace state did you think I can be the Hendrix of jaw harps
Sounds like when you’re on the phone while driving. I always feel I come to after I hang up.
Are you ok
5000 years ago people already made eletro mixes and robot voice
The new sounds are quite old.
Combine it with a didgeridoo to get those bass drops
Dollar tree acid bass!
Red Dead Redemption 2 brought me here after seeing Sean playing this lol.
Radhee Dewan same
Fallout 76 brought me here lol
@X X V I worth it mate, altho you might as well quit work and any relationships you have as you will be hooked haha
@@papabren saw it on red dead, didnt know what it was called, then found one in a shack on fallout 76. bought one and here I am lol
@@Southernmost682 fallout bringing people together with a jaw harp haha awesome
Reasons this is better than other instructional videos: no bullshit at the beginning. Just gets right into what we're here for.
My grandfather passed recently and I found a jaw harp amongst his old stuff, and decided to try and play it, thanks so much for helping, it means a lot!
I find this instrument so simple yet so fascinating.
Totally is.
Hearing a master pull off 'Bohemian Rhapsody' is a treat you won't soon forget.
I'm starting to feel like a jaw harp isn't the easiest instrument to play with braces.
Lamb OfGod You might try a dan moi for your time in braces. Ultra gnarly sound, and easily played against the lips. Also what harp are you playing? Love the name. I have seen L.o.g. Twice in concert and they killed it both times.
Same here fam
It’s not easy with a massive beard either lol
got my jaw harp when i had braces
you can play genggong, karinding, dan moi, mouth bou, kou xiang... Basically any kind that you can play against your lips or even without touching
It’s incredible that this device can be incorporated into metal music, but if you haven’t checked them out already, take a look at The HU. Such amazing sound from an instrument when used in tandem with other traditional instruments.
I didn’t even know it was used in metal I just know it’s used in a lot of old (old as in actually old) country songs lol
I was drawn to this video out of curiosity after listening to Sleeping Village from Black Sabbath first album
Also a Techno Analogue Wonder
my mom handed me one of these yesterday and out of curiosity i looked up videos on it. my mind is blown.
Your mom rules. You should never let her forget how great she is.
I busted my lip and now I’m getting really cool distortion..
Enjoy the reverb
Play some metallica then
Bleeding fingers and broken front teeth?
It's amazing how quickly you can begin to make sounds with a decent harp. I just received my paval potkin I ordered from Bebbcorp Harpery and surprised myself when I began to make sounds with it by the time this tutorial video ended.
Enjoy the journey.
I’m getting one for my son for Christmas. He’s been asking for one for a while now. It’s sure going to be fun the next few weeks while he learns how to play it, lol.
Heck yes, that is awesome. Just avoid the snoopy harp.
@@bebbcorpharpery7331 Why is the snoopy harp different?!?! Because I've been trying to play it to these videos and no noise just painful teeth
Because it makes little to no sound. It can also be dangerous and not safe for teeth. Real jaw harps make awesome sound and are relatively safe. Snoop is not.
Bebbcorp Harpery Good to know, thank you! He opened his harp this morning and loves it. Merry Christmas!
@@bebbcorpharpery7331, I must have a Snoop. The only noise was the clicking against my teeth. That ended my 40-second experience with this instrument.
now play some Mastodon on that thing
+Dillon Procell Mastadon is a journey, a separate awesome journey.
I had so much fun playing my first jaw harp that I wore it out within a month. Still play occasionally.
Musical instruments are just plain fun and a testament to human creativity and playfulness. Gonna get me one!
I love how much passion is in all of your videos and how enthusiastic and supportive you are towards beginners! My harp will be in the mail tomorrow, I'm so excited to begin and your videos have taught me a lot already. :)
Glad to help.
when she tell you to play it like a jaw harp
Make at Thang sound like a tuba
PLS YOU GUYS ARE HORRIBLE 💀💀💀
Thanks for sending me the link 😊 just great, now I know where I was going wrong about 50 years ago 😅 😕 😳, you wouldn't think that I've gone all these years not knowing.
Maybe one day soon I might just go and buy another and, maybe it might be better quality than was available back then.
Just turned 71 on 16th February so maybe there's still time.
Thanks again and happy harping.
Keep well, stay safe.

I’ve heard more jaw harps used in black metal than in any other genre I listen to
@@bebbcorpharpery7331 Ok I will
@@mariejudesmart649so whats the name
This is such a great video. I'm still having trouble but I'm gonna stick with it.
That note you played @ 3:52 sounds like a boing sound effect.
Robby Osborne yep
Warner Bros cartoons (Looney Toons, etc) and Disney use the jaw harp for boing effects… examples include Tigger the Tiger’s bouncy tail and Tom & Jerry cartoons when one of them gets violent whacked and they space out.

I'm genuinely fascinated by this, thank you for introducing me to this wonderful talent!
Fallout 76 made me buy the Jaw harp
I just purchased a dan moi and the samurai jaw harp and learned how to play within minutes of opening the package! What a blast and an amazingly interesting instrument this is. Everyone needs to at least try these out, it will bring so much joy and fun into your life and others.
Glad you are enjoying and catching on quick. Good luck on your journey.
Thanks again Jamie! I've been playing my new harp for hours! Your lessons are awesome!
Never could play one without hurting my teeth. Loved watching my grandfather play this and his harmonica
You may want to try a dan moi. They are played against the lips and are awesome.
It's like a guitar talkbox! That's pretty neat. Badass shirt btw 🤟
Thanks.
I was kind'a hoping he'd do a bit of Peter Framption's "Do You Feel Like We Do?" =)
I just ordered a jaw harp last night, which Amazon delivered this morning. Practiced for barely an hour and I'm already getting the hang of it!
I just purchased two jaw harps. Hadn’t messed with one since I was a child. Thank you so much on the refresher course.
Bro thank you so much I won a jaw harp at a little cowboy game and I didn’t know how to use it so I searched it up on TH-cam but it didn’t help but your ,cause you explained it so clearly thank you so much have a awesome day.

We need an electric jaw harp
Instruments like the Jaw Harp and the Cuica were so prevalent in the music for cartoons and games when I was a kid, but I never knew what they were called or how they worked. I legitimately thought that the cuica was a vocal sample, up until I heard someone say "That monkey yell sound you always hear in tropical music for games, that's a drum"
It's really fascinating to learn about all this stuff, I'd love to learn how to play both of em
Came here after listening to Amazonia by Gojira. It’s also in the outro of Remembrance. I gotta learn to play it. Sounds sick.

Looks sooo easy but I'm sure my jaw harp is broken...
Your jaw is fatigued. Relax and give it a rest. Much like your fingers being sore from first day of guitar.
