overtone singing is a voice technique where it seems like one person sings two notes at the same time. You can sing the overtone scale on one fundamental. Another fundamental has its own overtone scale, so in order to have more overtones to sing nice melodies, you can use different fundamentals and change them while singing.
this video is live, and every human being is capable of learning overtone singing ;)

"Aliens have abducted you" response 50 years ago: "Help!!! 😭😭"
Today: "... that's the aliens' problem."
DEADDDD
Me lol
Lml I'm done with the internet for the day
Damn. I studied Tuvan-style throatsinging since I was a teenager. I ain't heard anyone with this level of vocal control in my life.
I was already fascinated by how piano players can play different things with different hands at the same time, or how some bass players can sing while playing, but overtone singing is just above my imagination.
As someone who can do all 3 to some extent, controlled overtone singing took like a month, using both hands on piano took like a year, and I still can barely sing and play bass unless it's just root notes :p
@@cheeki-breeki now that's an accomplishment! I'm just a bass, recorder and violin player, playing only one melody at a time.
This is purely a skill of the voice. Playing an instrument and singing is a massive skill of its own. The human brain is more impressive than ppl give credit for.
I've seen Geddy Lee, the lead singer and bass player for the Canadian rock band Rush, play his bass while singing and playing a keyboard as well all at the same time. Oh, and he also had a multitude of pedals at his feet that he uses for various sounds and as switches too.
Try playing drums and singing@@cheeki-breeki
not only her ability to do this, but to CONTROL it how she does is extraterrestrial.
💗YES!! That's what I said too!! I've been working at this in my spare time for 25y • my control is garbage • She's almost *magical* !!💗💗 I'm so impressed I'm smiling!😍🤩
it's impressive but when is that ever useful tho?
some pieces actually feature overtones! for instance, “past life melodies” makes great use of this technique and adds an interesting quality to the piece that wouldn’t otherwise be present
@@MistahFrizz Oh WOW!!! COOOOOOL!!!! Thanks!!!! xoxo
@@oowaz Art's subjective, but *objectively* I'd guess its "use" is to blur life's edges via the beautiful/evocative; maybe administer a dopamine rush to counter depressive realism/existential horror. It's also pretty fun to bust it out when stoned with your mates! xo :D XD 💗
When you accidentally swallow an 80's synthesizer board
🤣😭🤣😁
I'm guessing you saw that article as well .. lolol. Beware the red knobs. Respect the red knobs.
I'm pretty sure she swallowed a theremin. Otherwise why would she need to move her hands like that?
Jajaja😂😂😂
@@neptilo :-) lol
omg she’s even climbing up and down the phrygian dominant scale in the overtones
it’s insane how precise and musical it sounds
I can understand why this would sound so unbelievable at first because it’s not something you hear on a typical day in some countries but it’s actually a very old style of singing broadly used. Mostly of eastern cultures teaching it to their children through the generations but much more global than you would think. It’s called Tuvan throat singing (I think someone mentioned it in the comments). It consists of 3 types with many variations depending on the culture. 1st the Kargyraa focusing on low frequencies, 2nd Khoomei on middle frequencies, and 3rd Sygyt high frequencies. Marie was using Sygyt. She has very nice control of her tones and has practiced it well. The heavy metal band someone mentioned I believe they were referring to were Mongolian “The Hu”. If you want to broaden you mind, search out some YT videos of throat singing and you will be amazed of the beautiful music you find from soo many different cultures. I know I have and enjoy it very much. Hope this was helpful to those unfamiliar with this masterful art. Have a blessed day
This was wonderful thank you!
Wow! You sound amazing and totally not someone I would hate with every cell in my body.
@@cackslopper5321???
!!!!!!!!!!!!!
thank you :)
They really did her dirty with that thumbnail
Emilia Thomas she still looks hot as shit
Emilia Thomas I think this "dirty" attracted Even more People. Good for her.
@@pinkrey4277 not gonna argue with that (;
She looks possessed
She looks like she is tired of everyones shit.
I refused to believe she isn’t a mermaid
Notice how she's not showing her legs
@Scram Jam you must be fun at parties
Would you rather top half human, bottom half fish? Or top half fish, bottom half human?
*siren
She's not she's a siren
Absolutely *astounding* ! It's clear that the lower tone is from her vocal cords, but the high notes are a harmonic that Anna-Maria has found a way both produce and to control the pitch of independently. That's really something!
It’s through manipulation of the resonance space through changing lip and tongue position.
!!!!!!
It's used in throat singing a lot. The overtone technique in Tuvan i think is called sygyt.
The method has been investigated by ENT doctors looking down the throats of Mongolian throat singers. The whistling sound is made by using the false vocal cords.
The talent this woman has is INSANE. So flabbergasted by her skills.
Many people struggle to harmonize with others. Meanwhile, this lady harmonizes with herself.
Seriously though. That’s mad talent.
No, it's not a talent. It's skill. You can learn it. No seriously, *you* can learn it.
Jochem Goede THANK YOU, everybody keeps talking about talent, that’s so insulting to people who had to train and work hard to achieve this skill.
Meine Namen it’s not mutually exclusive. A well-developed skill can be called a talent.
Almost no one has real talent if we don’t count the things they practiced.
Jochem Goede Playing a guitar can be considered a talent depending how good you are at it. Same with her singing.
Skilled is being good, talented is being extremely good. Now, you decide.
I've never been so excited to head into a comment section.
😂😂 me too
And a little bit frightened.
Looool
hi
Ayyy lmao
Потрясающе! Никогда такого раньше не слышал!

As someone who has a really hard time staying in key or even on a note I find it totally fascinating and extremely impressive.

This comment section was the last place I was expecting to find an Area 51 meme.. Keep it up
Omg I was just thinking that 😂
Omg this meme 😂👌

Nicole Schroeder Lmfaooooo 💀!!! That was a good one!
Anna sings one note and Maria sings the other one lol
😂✌️ Good job
😁😁😁😁
Underrated comment 😂😂😂
One of the best comments on youtube :D
lol
The fact that the harmonics are SO CLEAR!!
This lady is incredibly talented and I admire her voice modulation. My cats, however, go insane when they hear her singing!😅
tried this, can confirm cats go krazy
"Thanks for watching, humans."
Lol. GG
xD
best comment
You said 4 words 2 years ago and im laughing
Apparently you can only hum while doing this, no words.
That is the clearest loudest overtone singing I’ve ever heard
Ditto.
This is the first time I've ever heard the word overtone.
I know i was blown away by it. I'm familiar with the technique but she's amazing at it.
Listen to Avi Kaplan then
@@Iloveavitodeath I subscribed to her channel and have been listening to her
we need to put a camera down her throat to watch how she controls her throat, this is incredible!!!!!! I’ve seen it with Opera singers and Hardcore Metal singers but I’d LOVE to see what her vocal folds are doing during this!
how she can not only do 2 diff notes, but diff melody with each at the same time...mind is blown. She is incredible.
Polyphonic overtone singing? What's that?
5 minutes later; O. M. G.
Bruh the video ain't even 5 mins long xD
yea
@@JyunJyunie.00 but he had to recover from listening to this. It's not usual.
It's the same as Mongolian throat singing
It's tha same as Alien Brain Melt. Lookz like it werked!
No one:
My last brain cell at three a.m:
wwEEoooWrOoohhheeeee
I'm pretty sure I was listening to that exact bit when I read this comment.
Ffs.... 01:45 here, and i'm laughing way too hard at this....
This made me laugh the hardest.
This is so accurate, I can’t even.
If no one is silent, then what is everyone doing?
3:47 that was the most amazing overtone singing I’ve ever heard O.O just WOW
It's so nice to see how happy she is when she completes a take perfectly.
If you know that you can do something specific and are doing a tutorial for others, then it's almost a catastrophe for your own ego if you don't get it right.
Whether it's because of some kind of stage fright, or simply because you hit the wrong note or something, it doesn't matter, so much can always go wrong.
You can see that she enjoys what she does and that makes me happy too, although I still don't have the faintest idea how and what exactly she did. :)
Now, if she stared beatboxing at the same time, she would be a one woman a capella group
Somebody PLEASE do a Remix
@@nedisahonkey Wow, you weren't kidding. Thank you for that link!
She just has flute-like holes in her lungs
This is a cappella theremin
Imagine the mosh pit
That would have been the fastest trial in Salem, like a matter of a split second.

Lmao
@Le Rigourex that is probably the funniest TH-cam comment I have ever read! Expertly done. Hahahah!
You're awesome.
@KJ Grey
😂
This has always fascinated me, I cannot imagine the self discipline and practice that this takes.
This woman is INSANELY talented! True command over her vocals in every way.
I'm pretty sure this is how aliens communicate....
LMAO

Throat singing
I had no idea a human voice could do this. So amazing.
Yeah always thought that only passerine birds could do that
Listen some mongolian singing
It’s actually very easy because the overtones are created on their own, and I figured out how to use this technique a few years ago - one can also produce overtones while using mixed voice in a higher pitch, but they are definitely more obvious when using chest voice in a lower pitch!
So technically anyone can throatsing, the ‘hardest’ thing about it is, figuring out how to do it, but it’s probably easier for those that know how to growl / scream, because the other type of subharmonics uses a similar technique, the one where one uses a super low pitch, and I can go from A0 to A5 in chest voice on a good day, using both subharmonics and belting techniques which are opposites, and in head voice I can go from C6 to C8, and the overtones are not produced in the same way that head voice notes are produced, they aren’t produced by the actual vocal cords, but probably by the air, when one has that specific position / placement and the tension, so the fundamental must be a bit tense, so to speak, and the overtones will come naturally, so ppl with low and deep voices can also do it because one doesn’t necessarily need to have a higher and lighter voice to throatsing!

My sleep paralysis demon just called in sick after I played this
Josh Naujokas I like the implication that you make appointments with your sleep paralysis demon. Like seriously what would that be like
“Hey do you wanna come over and immobilize me to scare the shit out of me?”
“Sure does 3:24 work”
“Yeah that works see u then”
(Next time it happens, call Jesus. He recues from this.)
@Entertainment Pavement He gave himself to save you.
@Entertainment Pavement yes. I mean, if you don't like it, that's okay. But that's how it is. 😊 Enjoy your day!
@Entertainment Pavement I'm not deluded. I'm just not stupid enough to go out of my way just to criticize someone else's way of life like you did. #realitycheck
I have never heard this way of singing before, such an extraordinary talent to sing so beautifully
Unbelievable! Anna-Maria you have miraculous control over your voice and throat muscles, absolutely miraculous.
I crashed my ship on the rocks listening to this.
And I wasn't even in a ship.

"How to sing to your alien/human hybrid child"
Found the sims player.
Aka your nephilim child!!! Idk how you bastards are still here after the flood though... maybe you’re a water creature mixed with a “bene Elohim” watcher...
aka aliens don’t exist. They are really the fallen angels mixed with either human dna or animals.
Like Hercules. Half god half man.
Or like Anubis:half god half dog.
These things really existed. They explain away the mass mind control programming that is “aliens”.
They were washed away with the flood and are in chains of darkness now. But when they return the people will all fall for the heliocentric alien evolution deception. Don’t say you weren’t told. Now you know. Aliens are total bullshit! Read genesis 6:4 and realize what’s going on people. Research “nephilim hybrids” this is a spiritual supernatural war and your all showing huge amounts of cognitive dissonance. Willful ignorance because the idea of God means you will be held accountable.
hahaha
Dying 🤣🤣
LMAO
She has the understanding and vocabulary
Savant✨🙌
This is just so amazing! Thank you for the wonderful demonstrations ❤!
This woman is from another dimension
i doubt dimension is the word you are looking for here
When you hear that expression that someone's from another dimension it just means they're doing something that seems unreal. How have you never heard of that? Are you from another dimension or something? :)
Eric Cantu I was thinking the same thing. This moving picture image has somehow bent itself in through the parallel and we are looking at a black and white representation of an entity from an unknown dimension, possibly a shaman.
Buster Brown I agree, people, try mimicking her blinking and you'll see how abnormal her blinking is.
[Eric Cantu] She is most likely from Neu-Schwabenland
She literally sounds like an instrument, this is amazing.
She is the instrument
I think there's a synth playing as well for reference... maybe its not idk but if it's not I'd be mind blown
@@sf1292 🤯
this is the type of objectifying women i agree with.
@@sf1292это голос. Это древняя техника
This lady is genius you can see or more importantly hear very rarely. Such a rare voice. This is mesmerizing. I love the colour of the tones mixed together. She's a miracle.
She sounds like, and moves her hands like, shes playing a theramin
dumbidols I’ve never seen her before now, and do hope to find out more. But if I had to guess, I’d say that she is deliberately mimicking the hand gestures of a theremin player (perhaps she’s one herself) in order to help illustrate the tones as she sings them. That, and it looks cool to see a beautiful woman make graceful hand gestures.
Edit: her proprioceptive neurons and her motor neurons (peripheral NS) would appear to be linked to her auditory processing center (central NS).
I’m guessing she’s a synesthete and an Aspergian. And a beautiful, talented woman, but that’s no guess.
She probably was a theramin in a past life.
Maybe she swallowed a theremin?
[sic] I don’t know why. Perhaps she’ll die?
@@stvbrsn I know an old lady who swallowed a theremin?? Lol, too funny!
Music teacher: "I'll do the baritone you sing the contralto.
Anna: "it's OK, I'll just sing both"
Anna was like, “no no no no, I’m gonna sing them both girl”
ackshually she isn't singing bass, it's somewhere in the mids range
@@vindicator879 I think the person is just giving an example.
😂💯
That’s what happens when you’re carrying a group project
Never seen this kind of control in a singer. amazing.
I love it! You're incredibly gifted.
i think she just summoned aliens in my bedroom. it's 4 AM and I'm alone.

i mean you’re not alone anymore
should have asked their opinion.

My cat started acting really strange when I played this video.
OMG both of mine did too. Freak one of them out really bad.
Maybe they heard an E.T cat
Hey, mine too! Started attacking my phone! lol

Actually... Not really! Everyone can do this!
@@ommynous yeah, i learned it years ago in about 4 hours!
@@TqueenInfinity wow XD
really not that difficult, i learned it but she mastered it especially with pitch control of the lower note
@@TqueenInfinity i no joke heard this and nailed it 2 seconds after she demonstrated it. its super low though so you can barely hear it but im getting there, im 5 minutes in
One of the most beautiful things I have ever heard
It’s like she’s whistling and humming at the same time. Just wooooooow❤️
