i had just got my own home made didgeridoo, or well its a nice piece of bamboo that i hollowed out and i am also completely new at the whole rhythm making level. i just want to say that your video showed me a lot more about rhythms than any other video, because you put it out so straight forward and i admire that. great talent you have and great example by showing you stay true to your roots.
This is brilliant. I got my didg from you folk last week and am already doing these sounds. I'm fifty years of age and live in the Blue Mountains and this playing feels very natural for me. I come from a vocal and percussion background. Thanks for your really easy to follow tutorial.
The bit about the tongue to make the toot sound is genius! I had always used a pursed lip similar to a trumpet while using either my cheeks or a closing jaw to allow me to breathe. Cannot wait to try this when I wont wake my neighbors! Subscribed.
Awesome video! Lots of "Ahhh! THAT'S how you do it!" moments for me! Would love to see a vid on different ways of catching your breath during longer and more complicated rhythms. I've got the basics of circular breathing and the dit-a-wor type inhale, and have tried to get my exhales as short and plosive as possible, but still find myself running out of breath and having to keep switching to dit-a-wor over and over to drag some breath back into my lungs! Any tips?
Yes a very impromptu video, completely unrehearsed and unplanned..hence some "Ahh that's how you do it" Perhaps we will do some more detailed ones down the track. Tips?? Practice, Is your didge up to scratch ( right key, size, diameter) OR is it holding you back. Many websites, TH-cam clips that are dedicated to just instructional. Try the didgeridoo dojo
Excellent teachings. Thank you so much. I have to say, I find it difficult to articulate the sounds with my yidaki on the side of my mouth (a position that for me gives more depth in the sound and generally easier to play). When I play with it in the centre of my mouth, I can articulate the words very easily but the sounds aren't deep and nice. I was trying work out where you put your mouth but your hand is always covering it. Thanks again Gumaroy :)
SMOlmec Hahaha! Yeah, I need get my priorities right. I'll get onto the I-O-I-O motions. Loving the gargle sounds and toots at the moment. I need to more rhythm in though.
That is a seriously meaty sounding didge, sounds like an E... Booming, love it

No worries. Great to hear you are progressing. Keep plugging away and you will be a pro in no time!
Can you circle breath? Im having a real hard time learning, any tips?
I used to own a didge and play on and off. Watching this video has inspired me to find a new didge and get back playing again. Awesome tutorial.
Superb!

Lots of ‘penny dropped’ moments from this! Great tips!! Thank you
I made my own didgeridoo and this is a great help in showing me how to play!
Many thanks beautiful video
thanks!!!! if you ever come to Argentina or Chile giv a buzz!!
Good tutorial and Gumaroy is a great teacher indeed !! Hopefully we'll get to see more
why would ANYONE dislike this?!
Because they have shit for brains....
dont have any taste
That's alot to absorb for a beginner like myself but it does sound great. I just need to grasp circular breathing and master it and I'll be real good.
Great video and teaching!
Thank you very much!
This I'm saving
man, you have sweet talents. from the heart, I can tell. thanks for sharing. I am brand new to the didgeridoo.
Amazing...I will try my hardest to become as good as you...Brilliant tutorial... Thank you...
The didgeridoo is the call and music of the Koorie people of Australia. The Didgeridoo and Australia are linked.

SMOlmec Thanks. I'll give it a go. I definitely play at least for 20min every day. Here's hoping it starts to improve :)

I totally agree. I try to help others when ever I can in my life. I'm sure it will come back around to me sooner or later :)
Great video, i was just wondering what note your didgeridoo has?
Thank you !!!
Is that high pitch toot during the beat of 6:45 the horn?
yes that is indeed the horn or as some people call it the toot, trumpet note or overblow note
Can't hear you
I can play the didgeridoo with my hands. Trust me it's easy
I'm like 500!
Can't hear you bro!
Try turning the volume up.
