Mike Parker from USA |
I thought that the sound of the didgeridoo was a powerful haunting and beautiful sound. It made me want to get in touch with
the tribal side of my soul. |
Nelson Solorzano from USA |
It felt wonderful!! surprisingly different and I was amazed to realize the significance and extent of cultural conceptions
(ethnomusicology in this case). In the following years I've rationalized my impression by identifying the didgeridoo as the "call
to the gods". To me it represents the reproduction of ancient sounds that I don't identify with nature (as is usual with
other ancient cultures) but with the thunder of powerful engines in their sound and vibrations. These must be similar to those
of ancient visitors from outer space with space vessels (similar to Von Danicken's "chariots of the Gods" resembled
in the Bible and the grave/tomb slab of stone representing something similar in the Mayas' culture too) that came and through
their cultural (they taught everyone many things) and biological (they screwed every/any female they could lay) influence transformed
a bunch of semi-monkeys like the Australopithecus Pithecanthropus homo erectus and other pre-homo species into a breed of homo
habilis homo sapiens etc. with the use of a conscience intelligence culture reason and spirit that didn't exist before them.
This is why the search for/of a "missing link" between apes and humans is useless it doesn't exist as a result of a "natural
selection" process (Darwinian theory about the evolution of species or the "survival of the strongest or more apt to
adapt to a specific environment") this magnificent change in the destiny and evolution of the (this world's) endemic species
was a result of the influence of an alien culture from outer space. The ancient culture of Australian origin (the only one in
the world that had remained untouched for thousands of years) remembered these visitors and created the sounds of the didgeridoo
to represent the sounds made by the space ships in an effort to call them back as the "Gods from outer space" and benefactors
of their ancient culture and by extension of today's humanity. This inspirational interpretation is why I want to play a didgeridoo
I must have one to participate in this emotional and inspirational process of a "call to the Gods". |

Freaky stuff! and there was a puddle of spit at the end of it which being an 8-year-old boy I thought was pretty cool |

C' est un instrument fantastique créé par mégarde par nos ancêtres les aborigènes...merci
pour eux car aujourd'hui je joue tout le temps pour calmer les nerfs grâce à leur son profond ou simplement me faire
très plaisir. Cela me fait travailler mon souffle et j'adore "voir" cette vibration se propager dans toutes
les directions autour de moi. Le mieux reste de jouer à plusieurs avec des didgeridoos à la même note de
base pour pouvoir progresser et faire monter toujours plus le plaisir avec en prime une convivialité extraordinaire! |

Tomi from Finland |
Because I'm a percussionist and interested specially in native instruments and music I was fascinated by the sound. I remember
I had heard that sound before but didn't know then what was the source. The rhythmic pulse the drone and accents like syllables
made it clear that there was a story behind playing very much like in santeria music or in sami joik. |
Tommaso Pilla from Italy |
It's sound is one of the most tribal and "prehistoric" I have never heard before. |
