    I was 10 years old when I went seaside. Suddenly, after the some water "punching" realisation came through. Water was making lovely rhythmic sounds. That was WOW moment for me and my only wish for the others was to find this out. From that holiday, every year I had my own drum water session. 😁This video is prove that folks over the planet know about beautiful "instrument" and for me thats the same feeling like finding soul mate! Can't find the exact words to describe this profoundly, overwhelming happiness right now. ♥️

    I'm a Chamorro from Guam (another pacific island). I just find this interesting because in my culture, we're taught not to be loud or "disturb" the ocean when in/by it. So to me, I'm watching them with a little shock thinking other pacific cultures think/do the same...Still a cool video though. :)

    • @sylvaind.9964
      @sylvaind.9964 8 ปีที่แล้ว +18

      very interesting !! It could be great to talk about different conceptions linked to a same relationship to Ocean ! I guess it's just knowing more about the feelings of each different culture.

    • @santiagogarciamedina4775
      @santiagogarciamedina4775 8 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      I think the reason could be that Chamorro people are part of the region ''Micronesia'' and people from Vanuatu are from ''Melanesia''. I think this can explain the different cultures even if they're still Pacific islanders. Like for example, Polynesia could be also a different thing. Is just my opinion, I don't know if I'm right.

    • @StoufSto
      @StoufSto 8 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      No, those are just names given to the areas by Europeans, it has nothing to do with local cultures.

    • @santiagogarciamedina4775
      @santiagogarciamedina4775 8 ปีที่แล้ว +11

      StoufSto I doesn't seems to be the case when I studied that. Micronesians and Melanesians are completly different physically and also culturally. Physically, Melanesian are more similar to Australian aborigines. Melanesian islands share similar cultures and beliefs, same with Micronesian islands.Also Polynesians are physically, culturally and their linguistic different to the other two. The triangle of Polynesia it's an obvious cultural region and they share all similar beliefs, physical traits and languages. Maybe I'm wrong but I would like to hear your explinations about your opinion.

    I've been making music like this (usually more complex songs) since I was a young kid in the bath and shower and later anywhere there is water flowing or in abundance. I still sometimes like to play music with sink tap water, mostly at sinks other than my own (due to the thin stream in my two home sinks), the most frequently played tune I play at/with water flowing into public bathroom sinks, is the unconsciously well-known 1890s Czech marching song 'Entry of the gladiator'/Opus 68.

      People are always including the bottom number and claiming a “time signature” when there is no bottom number if you don’t have written western sheet music beat value. It’s an irrelevant written indicator that doesn’t apply to sound
