Calming;Comforting;connecting (physically) |
| Casey Slack from USA |
I'm gonna get a little weird here:I can loose myself in didj sounds; I can feel other animal-beats begin to pulse within me and want to emerge when I play - and listening to experienced circular breathers rejuvenates me. How can such an instrument be so captivating? It takes me somewhere. The didjeroo sound allows me to focus and disappear; and place me somewhere between peace and war - or rather calm and strong. I know it's just an instrument; but I think there's some spiritual and ritual element that effects me. |

I find the didge to be both a meditative experience (a mindfulness experience) and a marvelous source of play and free expression.

It's almost like the sound of the nature itself... I can't descrive it. It's almost like the sound of the didge is arrising from the didge itself and in the same time from the deep of your own body. I know; it's a litle bit poetical; but; can you descreive that without poetry? |
