The Yaybahar sounds like a one-man rock band, but without any electronics. No, ladies and gentlemen, that’s not an electric guitar you’re hearing. That’s a massive violin with metal discs.
It's both. I agree though that his throat singing takes away from what the focus of this video is supposed to be. It's difficult to make out what part is the berimbau if you've never heard it before.
If you listen, you can hear the Bermbau. It’s actually the soft percussion noise. A friend of mine had one, and let me play it. Basically it’s a very thin pitched percussion noise.
I would stop walking, look around, and think: "Well, now that's ominous. I wonder where it's coming from? ... wait... oh shit... Am I entering a cut scene?! I can't control anything in cut scenes!... *OH MY GOD!... WHAT IF IT'S THE CUT SCENE BEFORE THE BOSS FIGHT?!?!*"
Check Rob Scallon's channel for more about this instrument (and many others). There's only a handful of them in existence and they're used for horror movies all the time.
I thought it sounded like the sounds that have been heard from all over the world... coming from the sky. I mean.... really sounds like those sounds. I've been freaked out by these videos of sounds coming from the sky for years now. Lol I may have found the culprit. Lol 😂
@@brandycottle5169 Do you like the sound now that you have seen the instrument? The instrument looks beautiful but I have sensory issues so certain types of sounds are like nails on a chalkboard to me. This is one of them. Sounds like scraping metal. I want to appreciate it but my brain won't let me which is sad because it looks so cool!
Summary of each of the instruments: Musical Saw: No explanation needed here, as it’s literally a saw played using a violin bow, and bent to change the pitch. Handpan: The instrument used to make part of Minecraft’s soundtrack. It’s a specially shaped steel pan with indentations of various sizes. These create the different notes when hit by your hand. Alpha Sphere: Essentially a MIDI controller, each pad on the sphere plays a different sample from the laptop behind it, and when hit in the right order, they make a song that you can customize to your liking. Alto Sheng: A miniature pipe organ that’s played like a piano while you blow into the mouthpiece like a tuba. It’s honestly hard to describe well, so see for yourself. I will say, though, each pipe sounds like it has a metal reed at the bottom, as it doesn’t sound like a regular organ, but more like trumpets. Ocarina: Obviously, this is Zelda inspired. It’s basically a wooden flute that’s far more compact than a standard flute is. Marxophone: This is essentially a dulcimer with keys instead of xylophone-like hammers. Glass Harp: You’ve probably seen one of these before at least once. It’s a series of wine glasses that are filled to different levels with water, producing different notes when rubbed with wet fingers. Jal Tarang: This is a series of different sized bowls that make different notes when hit with ceramic sticks (or they could be glass; not sure which). It’s a simple xylophone essentially. Hydraulophone: The most beautiful instrument on this list in my opinion. I’m not sure how it works inside, but it’s basically a water fountain that you can play like a recorder, by covering different holes to make different notes. Crystal Baschet: This, on the other hand, is one of the strangest instruments on this list. The part you play is made up of glass rods, which create the different notes. The rods transfer the vibrations to those two giant metal sheets that look like elephant ears, and they act like amplifiers, making the glass vibrations audible. Sasando: Basically a guitar built around a thick wooden stick and using piano-style strings. T’rung: This is a xylophone; though it looks nothing like one. It’s a set of wooden pipes that make up the bars, which are all suspended by a net-like arrangement of strings. Flexatone: This was probably used to make some cartoon sounds back in the day. It’s a flexible (hence the name) metal plate with two spring hammers that hit it when shaken. Alphorn: The worlds longest wooden horn (unverified, but it’s gotta be close) that produces surprisingly high notes for its size. Log Drum: A drum made out of a log. Just like the first one, its pretty simple. Udu: Have you ever wanted to play vases? I sure haven’t. But it’s a thing, and this is it. Angklung: A set of wooden tubes with stones or something inside them that rattle around when the tubes are hit. Seen here playing Seniorita. Lithophone: A huge xylophone made out of large slabs of stone and played with large wooden hammers. Water Bowls: Second place in my opinion for the most beautiful instruments on this list. It’s a set of glass bowls with water inside them. These bowls have contact microphones on the bottom of them, and what I’m assuming is a conductive metal rim on the edge of each one as well, so these require some external electronics to make the sounds they do. But boy are they beautiful when played correctly. Organetto: As the name suggests, this is another mini pipe organ, but this one has actual organ pipes and a massive accordion-like bellow on the side. And it’s (almost) handheld, which is crazy. Pretty cool instrument, I must say. Berimbau: This is essentially a hunting bow with a wooden echo chamber attached that’s played using a metal rod. Unfortunately, the clip of it here is drowned out by the throat singing, but there are probably better videos of it out there if you search for them. Balafone: This is another xylophone-like instrument (boy, there’s a lot of them here), and it looks just like one, but with wooden spheres as resonators instead of pipes. Theremin: Unfortunately, this one got skipped due to a video glitch, but what this would have sounded like is hard to describe in words. It’s an electronic instrument comprised of two antennas, one that’s horizontal that controls the volume of the note, and one that’s vertical that controls the pitch. You play it by moving one hand around the vertical antenna and moving the other up and down over the horizontal one. Rimba Tubes: A Blue Man Group favorite! This is a spiderweb of pipes of various sizes, which play different notes when hit with foam paddles. And yes, they’re playing Megalovania in that video clip. Like it or hate it, that’s what you’re gonna hear. Yaybahar: If you thought the Crystal Baschet was weird, check this one out (the time stamp isn’t perfect due to the Theremin being skipped, so click around; you’ll find it). It’s a massive string instrument that’s played like a violin, but with big metal discs on the ends of the strings. This produces a sound that’s surprisingly similar to an electric guitar, actually. Array Mbira: Also known as a Kalimba, or “finger piano,” this is an instrument made up of small metal fins, each of which produces a different note when plucked with your fingers. The one in this video happens to have an electric amplifier built in, but not all of them have one. Didgeridoo: Another Minecraft reference, as this is one of the note block sounds. This is a wooden horn that looks similar to a tuba, but instead of blowing into it, you beatbox into it. It’s a beatbox amplifier of sorts, just in case you wanted to add some bass to your beatbox. Waterphone: This was probably used to make horror movie sound effects at one point. It’s a metal pan of sorts with several metal tines sticking out of it. As the name implies, the pan is filled with water, and when you play it by using a violin bow on the tines, it creates some 🎶 Spooky Scary Sound Effects that send shivers down your spine 🎵. Hadourum Water Drums: These are wooden and metal spheres of various sizes and shapes that float in buckets of water. They make some cool sounds if hit in the right spots.
hey! just a small correction, an ocarina isn't really like a flute, more like a recorder, and it's usually made out of ceramic, not wood. it's also not inspired by zelda, it's been around for a long time, even though it's perfect for the game!
7:15 “So what instruments do you play?” “Vases” (Ps this comment is a joke, I actually have one of these and really love playing it) In all seriousness. These look very cool to play, especially most of the string and percussion instruments.
I love how some of these are the most beautiful thing you’ve ever heard, and some of them sound absolutely terrifying. The waterphone sent genuine shivers up my spine. It sounds like a thousand ghosts singing as someone drags a metal blade across the floor. That is some horror movie shit right there.
Great video, I can't believe there aren't more comments. At 10:33, the "Rimba Tubes" are more traditionally referred to as the "Tubulum". Kent Jenkins was inspired to build this one after seeing The Blue Man Group play their tubulum, but I can't find why he gave his a different name.
I am a classically trained musician. I went to a Renaissance fair where they were selling them. I eagerly walked up to the table, and proclaimed, “oh cool, I can play the instrument from legend of Zelda.” The lady just smiled and handed me a pamphlet that explained the history of the instrument, along with many folk tunes that were traditionally played on it… I was embarrassed to say the least
@@wishingonthemoon1whomever the seller was that day just happened to probably not be that great. Or the rennfest wasnt. I bought a ocarina from a rennfest. Ceramic with a wolf. Some rennfests have more Zelda looking ocarinas. I do not play it. I tried. I had a wooden hand made flute when I was younger from a different rennfest and couldn't play that either very well. It smelled amazing and stayed that way for years.
12:16...that is the CRAZIEST Didge I have EVER seen!! I had no idea they even came in that form! More importantly, HOW did it get in that form??? I'd love to see a vid on they get made to look like that.
Instruments and Where They Sound Like Musical Saw: Kinda resembling a cliche cartoon ghost "ooooooooooo", so maybe a haunted house Handpan: Calm, tropical kind of sound. Definitely the kind you would want to hear in a beach or a private island Alpha Sphere: Futuristic operation. Maybe some scientific surgeons in the process of transforming an almost-dead patient into a cyborg. Either that or a cinematic showcase of a futuristic city Alto Sheng: Chasing a thief in a Chinese town or a village that isn't Chinese Ocarina: _Probably_ used by a goat person in the middle of a forest, surrounded by amazed animals. (Couldn't think of a good one because it's playing a song i recognize) Marxophone: BGM for an ancient forgotten temple located somewhere in Southeastern Asia Glass harp: Magical place where wizards and witches and magic exist (or Hogwarts i guess) or a winter fairy forest Jan Tarang: Witham few extra instruments, sounds like a secret, magical town in India Hydraulophone: Entering a majestic sea temple of Atlantis Crystal Baschet: Old, spooky forest that has seen better days Sasando: Enjoying the beauriful sunset on a Hawaiian beach with a partner watching as the sun slowly goes down the horizon T'Rung: Either in a Southeast Asian village or rainforest Flexatone: Not a place, but does sound like a cartoonish sound effect (but I can't remember what) Alphorn: A peaceful afternoon in a Viking village in Scandinavia Log Drum: Suspenseful music in a mysterious rainforest, waiting for something to pounce Udu: An intense fight with a giant legendary cobra in an Indian temple Angklung: _Possibly_ in a fight between two highly skilled warriors. Where? I don't know (again, playing a song I recognize, so it's harder) Lithophone: A silly chase in a village; on rooftops, riding carts and wheelbarrows, etc. Water Bowls: Floating in empty space Organetto: Peaceful day in a seaside town Berimbau: Normal day in a bustling city in India Balafone: Peacefully strolling in the Amazon rainforest, while hearing the parrots squawk Rimba Tubes: Along with some clapping, _maybe_ the start of an intense chase (You probably know what I'm about to say by now) Yaybahar: Approaching an legendary Indian temple, ready for all of the dangers it has in store Array Mbira: A calm dream of relaxing on poof, white clouds, with all of the work that needs to be done already finished Didgeridoo: Held captive by hostile tribal people; entering their skull-filled territory with tied hands Waterphone: Something mysterious appeared in the foggy lake, but it was too fast to make out the shape Hadourum: Starts off as a friendly standoff, then it wscalates into an intense chase
Wow, this was wonderful to read! What a wild imagination trip!!! :D haha Clearly, you put work into it. Good job!!! :DDD My favourite scene/depiction is probably the cloud... :) And the glass hard wizards! :D Could totally see Gandalf and/or Harry Potter playing them, or something. if they knew music... lol
I have watched a lot of videos with unusual musical instruments and my favorite musical instrument is the yaybahar. It's simply otherworldly and it can produce many interesting sounds
Since the Theremin was cut out the video for some reason, I'll give you a brief description of it. You know that whistling sound that's commonly associated with UFOs in old Sci-Fi movies? Well, that sound is made by a Theremin.
Wow!! I have seen in person the saw instrument played. Thank you for this video of musical instruments played with their unique sounds. Truly enjoyed all of them. 🎵🎶😊❤❤❤
And it might have been common maybe 700 years ago or so. It would be nice to have a video of similar length and half as many instruments and some explanation of their origins.
The TH-cam algorithm may have brought me here four years later, but this is still impressive. If a object or multiple objects can make a sound at different pitches, we will turn it into a musical instrument.
4:38 brb, gonna go buy this instrument so I can play it in the middle of the woods and make some random campers think that they're about to witness ancient horrors beyond their comprehension
Number 25 Yaybhar is my favorite. It seems like a mix between violin and guitar like you can play both at the same time in a synchronized way and one other instrument that caught my attention is the waterphone it sounds mystical like sound from ther outer space
Imagine you're exploring an abandoned building. You're all by yourself. It is the middle of the night, and, since your flashlight went out, the only sources of light are the moon and the stars from outside. Your surroundings smell like dust, and there is a cool breeze brushing past you and sending a chill down your spine. At first, you can only hear the sound of your own light footsteps along the linoleum floor. Then, out of nowhere, you hear this: 12:52
Soooo many amazing instruments! Just imagine a CD set with some of all this group playing something of their own! I’m old fashioned. I’m still getting over vinyl!
To be fair the muscle power to volume ratio is really bad, and it's hard to hit it correctly to sound at all. (paddle has to hit flat across tube opening)
That Christal bascuet is super interesting. More so because it seems to be mimicking a natural phenomonon or ratio. You hear about weird sky sounds. I'm wondering if it could shed some light/understanding into the mechanism.
The ocarina was definitely made somewhat famous by OOT and Majora’s Mask
And I believe the hand pan is used for some parts of the Minecraft ost
Yeah it is
10:34 and everyone knows about the Rimba tubes thanks to Blu Man Group
ocarina? Link, is it you????
Wait why the flexatone sounds like the start of the gta San Andreas main theme ?
Most definitely was used for Minecraft. It, along with the steel pan, are some of my favorite obscure instruments
I remember being in grade school and weirdos coming to show us their equally weird instruments. It was the highlight of my week. I'm a weirdo too
Weirdos rule

At 9:30, it's not the Bermbau you're hearing, though... he's throat singing.
It's both. I agree though that his throat singing takes away from what the focus of this video is supposed to be. It's difficult to make out what part is the berimbau if you've never heard it before.

If you listen, you can hear the Bermbau. It’s actually the soft percussion noise. A friend of mine had one, and let me play it. Basically it’s a very thin pitched percussion noise.
Idc, I love that.
The whole composition is freaking awesome.

The musical saw is super awesome. Also played extremely well!
Ikr!
Summary of each of the instruments:
Musical Saw: No explanation needed here, as it’s literally a saw played using a violin bow, and bent to change the pitch.
Handpan: The instrument used to make part of Minecraft’s soundtrack. It’s a specially shaped steel pan with indentations of various sizes. These create the different notes when hit by your hand.
Alpha Sphere: Essentially a MIDI controller, each pad on the sphere plays a different sample from the laptop behind it, and when hit in the right order, they make a song that you can customize to your liking.
Alto Sheng: A miniature pipe organ that’s played like a piano while you blow into the mouthpiece like a tuba. It’s honestly hard to describe well, so see for yourself. I will say, though, each pipe sounds like it has a metal reed at the bottom, as it doesn’t sound like a regular organ, but more like trumpets.
Ocarina: Obviously, this is Zelda inspired. It’s basically a wooden flute that’s far more compact than a standard flute is.
Marxophone: This is essentially a dulcimer with keys instead of xylophone-like hammers.
Glass Harp: You’ve probably seen one of these before at least once. It’s a series of wine glasses that are filled to different levels with water, producing different notes when rubbed with wet fingers.
Jal Tarang: This is a series of different sized bowls that make different notes when hit with ceramic sticks (or they could be glass; not sure which). It’s a simple xylophone essentially.
Hydraulophone: The most beautiful instrument on this list in my opinion. I’m not sure how it works inside, but it’s basically a water fountain that you can play like a recorder, by covering different holes to make different notes.
Crystal Baschet: This, on the other hand, is one of the strangest instruments on this list. The part you play is made up of glass rods, which create the different notes. The rods transfer the vibrations to those two giant metal sheets that look like elephant ears, and they act like amplifiers, making the glass vibrations audible.
Sasando: Basically a guitar built around a thick wooden stick and using piano-style strings.
T’rung: This is a xylophone; though it looks nothing like one. It’s a set of wooden pipes that make up the bars, which are all suspended by a net-like arrangement of strings.
Flexatone: This was probably used to make some cartoon sounds back in the day. It’s a flexible (hence the name) metal plate with two spring hammers that hit it when shaken.
Alphorn: The worlds longest wooden horn (unverified, but it’s gotta be close) that produces surprisingly high notes for its size.
Log Drum: A drum made out of a log. Just like the first one, its pretty simple.
Udu: Have you ever wanted to play vases? I sure haven’t. But it’s a thing, and this is it.
Angklung: A set of wooden tubes with stones or something inside them that rattle around when the tubes are hit. Seen here playing Seniorita.
Lithophone: A huge xylophone made out of large slabs of stone and played with large wooden hammers.
Water Bowls: Second place in my opinion for the most beautiful instruments on this list. It’s a set of glass bowls with water inside them. These bowls have contact microphones on the bottom of them, and what I’m assuming is a conductive metal rim on the edge of each one as well, so these require some external electronics to make the sounds they do. But boy are they beautiful when played correctly.
Organetto: As the name suggests, this is another mini pipe organ, but this one has actual organ pipes and a massive accordion-like bellow on the side. And it’s (almost) handheld, which is crazy. Pretty cool instrument, I must say.
Berimbau: This is essentially a hunting bow with a wooden echo chamber attached that’s played using a metal rod. Unfortunately, the clip of it here is drowned out by the throat singing, but there are probably better videos of it out there if you search for them.
Balafone: This is another xylophone-like instrument (boy, there’s a lot of them here), and it looks just like one, but with wooden spheres as resonators instead of pipes.
Theremin: Unfortunately, this one got skipped due to a video glitch, but what this would have sounded like is hard to describe in words. It’s an electronic instrument comprised of two antennas, one that’s horizontal that controls the volume of the note, and one that’s vertical that controls the pitch. You play it by moving one hand around the vertical antenna and moving the other up and down over the horizontal one.
Rimba Tubes: A Blue Man Group favorite! This is a spiderweb of pipes of various sizes, which play different notes when hit with foam paddles. And yes, they’re playing Megalovania in that video clip. Like it or hate it, that’s what you’re gonna hear.
Yaybahar: If you thought the Crystal Baschet was weird, check this one out (the time stamp isn’t perfect due to the Theremin being skipped, so click around; you’ll find it). It’s a massive string instrument that’s played like a violin, but with big metal discs on the ends of the strings. This produces a sound that’s surprisingly similar to an electric guitar, actually.

My favourite scene/depiction is probably the cloud... :) And the glass hard wizards! :D Could totally see Gandalf and/or Harry Potter playing them, or something. if they knew music... lol
@@joeykitty8678 I put too much time into this
@@Thtaoy1029 Hehe, fair enough! it was good!!! very well worth it!!! :D
What is the song played on the ocarina? I
Handpans can also sound pretty hymalayan depending on how u play it
7:44 Ah yes. Indonesian Traditional Musical Instrument. Angklung.
Don't forget....sasando is Indonesian traditional musical too
The person did a great job playing Shawn Mendes and Camilia Cabello's "Senorita" with it.
Sasando in Indonesia
@Zeronime bang kapan upload
Sasando juga itu
Organetto - seriously cool instrument.
Yup! It’s basically an accordion with organ pipes instead, or more simply, a handheld pipe organ.
the Organetto is perhaps an Italian instrument, because its name is in Italian
So truuuee. Mega dnd vibes
Check out water organs (the predecessor of modern organs). This looked like a cross between a water organ and a piano accordion.
6:34:Lisa Stoll is a MASTER on alp horn!
Is Lisa the one recording or using it
Parece Pipi Lastrum
@@ImaPizzaKusing it
I have watched a lot of videos with unusual musical instruments and my favorite musical instrument is the yaybahar. It's simply otherworldly and it can produce many interesting sounds

So many new Sound's and tone's😍thx for sharing. Music is the Key
Since the Theremin was cut out the video for some reason, I'll give you a brief description of it. You know that whistling sound that's commonly associated with UFOs in old Sci-Fi movies? Well, that sound is made by a Theremin.
Liked the Waterphone 😀 12:51
These are all amazing! 😯
Wow!! I have seen in person the saw instrument played.
Thank you for this video of musical instruments played with their unique sounds. Truly enjoyed all of them. 🎵🎶😊❤❤❤
I've seen the waterphone before in a nature documentary. Some scientists were using one to imitate the call of whales.
Nicely done video, I haven´t heard about most of these instruments .. that Organetto sound is just magical
And it might have been common maybe 700 years ago or so. It would be nice to have a video of similar length and half as many instruments and some explanation of their origins.
5:40 Legit thought this guy went to a museum to play a dinosaur fossil
12:53 Venom had left the chat 🤯
Me encanto gracias por compartir. 😊
2:44 "Recycle Micola original taste, less sugar one point five..."
1:09 kinda reminds me of minecraft
Really cool!!
4:18 soooo relaxing and calm…IM GONNA CRY!!!😊🥹🥹
The TH-cam algorithm may have brought me here four years later, but this is still impressive.
If a object or multiple objects can make a sound at different pitches, we will turn it into a musical instrument.
I quite enjoyed the water bowls. Very soothing.
The Crystal Baschet was certainly interesting, would be interesting to fine a sample pack based on it
That was one of the few that were actually interesting. As I could not picture it's exact operation.
10:57 this is the best I've ever seen. I got goosebumps 🤯🥴
3:11 sounds similar to a santoor / santur 😃
4:38 brb, gonna go buy this instrument so I can play it in the middle of the woods and make some random campers think that they're about to witness ancient horrors beyond their comprehension
Very inspirational, thank you!
6:00 Only True Legends can understand ❤️
Number 25 Yaybhar is my favorite. It seems like a mix between violin and guitar like you can play both at the same time in a synchronized way and one other instrument that caught my attention is the waterphone it sounds mystical like sound from ther outer space
Now I know what those people who hear strange noises that sound a bit like trumpets is. It's that crystal Baschet!
1:36
"What instrument do you play?"
"Ball."
"What...?"
*"B a l l ."*
After the beat drop: *A WILD WUBBOX APPEARED!*
*THE WILD WUBBOX USED SING!*
F1L3 N0T F0UND!
@dinahbird7473 uhm that's rare wubbox-
2:37 this is where they create the dun dun dun dun dun dun dun dun dun
Yo fon linging
Puff The Magic Dragon played on a hydraulophone? My life is complete.
4:22 I like how that guy in the background just waved at the camera
Imagine you're exploring an abandoned building. You're all by yourself. It is the middle of the night, and, since your flashlight went out, the only sources of light are the moon and the stars from outside. Your surroundings smell like dust, and there is a cool breeze brushing past you and sending a chill down your spine. At first, you can only hear the sound of your own light footsteps along the linoleum floor. Then, out of nowhere, you hear this: 12:52
god the hydraulophone got me...
Soooo many amazing instruments! Just imagine a CD set with some of all this group playing something of their own! I’m old fashioned. I’m still getting over vinyl!
3:56 what 9 year old me thought when playing with random bowls and plates in the kitchen
10:33 Bro my old elementary school had one of these near the playground area and I don’t know why nobody ever used it. 😂😭
To be fair the muscle power to volume ratio is really bad, and it's hard to hit it correctly to sound at all. (paddle has to hit flat across tube opening)
@@Queer_Nerd_For_Human_Justice Are’s used like the shittiest pipes anyways lol.
My elementary music teacher had a few of these, they were pretty well made and sounded good.
@@senoraxolotl4597 Bro are’s were made of PVC pipes and most of them held were together by tape. 💀
The Yaybarhar at 10:56 ethereal sounds!
it's funny how many of these are "I got bored and made a xylophone/marimba from random objects"
My personal favorites (in order):
Musical Saw
Handpan
Crystal Baschet
Udu
Water Bowls
Yaybahar
Why no hydraulophone
7:43 I love you when you call me señorita
5:11 That guy has the coolest hat.
When I heard the handpan, I just knew I know the sound from somewhere...
That would be Minecraft.
8:18 me and the flintstones listening to the new bop by oongaboonga 🎶🎵
6:07 that gave me GTASA vibes
The musical saw's sound was one of the most bizar and at the same time beautyful thing i've ever listened to...
This was wonderful. Excellent upload - thank you! Go BEARS
God! That Alto Sheng is pure cacophony and noise.
The Hydraulophone sounded like a bunch of different leaky taps in the bathroom at once.
That Christal bascuet is super interesting. More so because it seems to be mimicking a natural phenomonon or ratio.
You hear about weird sky sounds. I'm wondering if it could shed some light/understanding into the mechanism.
Exactly my thinking!
If you wanted to hear or know more about the Christal bascuet Rob Scallon did a video with one. th-cam.com/video/XXec9ggTha0/w-d-xo.html
Omg! Some of these instruments came straight from a Alien planet!!!
Bot ass wording tbh
Cool to see the singing saw made it here!
best video i've ever seen
Water bowls are absolutely SYNTH!!! 🤩
imagine going for a walk in the mountains and hearing a distant crystal baschet. you'd think it was aliens
The Crystal Baschet… the perfect way to piss off an entire neighborhood.
This is really cool! Always up for new and unique sounds that can be turned into music!
I believe you forgot about the theremin.Where as I have seen rimba tubes everywhere.
Otherwise, very interesting. Thank you.
Number 23 but she doesn’t play it?
@@mikebe2090 No wonder i missed it, it was only on there for a few seconds.
5:01 I close my eyes and im in the movie aliens apocalypse lol
12:54 be prepared for jumpscare 😁
12:23 bro be dropping bars 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
I love hearing different sounds than the 'standard' ones. So cool.
My favourite has to be the sasando.
Alpha sphere is so cool!!
5:58 é igualzinho a introdução de GTA San Andreas!
Hauhauhau
0:41 sounds like a Disney movie literally:0
Angklung always play with band just one by one person hold it and play at the exact time when it needed.
I miss those
As a musician I love almost ALL of these. Except one. The Alpha sphere is NOT an instrument. Its a midi controller. All of the others are awesome...
REALLY thankfull you insert the source, Thankyou
“Babe wake up a new instrument just dropped”
5:10 I want that hat.
waterphone sounds like a perfect haunted horror movie instrument scared the bleep out of me lol
