| Are you ready to learn a challenging, exciting new beat for didgeridoo? In this video we cover the African 6/8 clave, a rhythm that stands on its own for endless possibilities for solo didgeridoo. This full break down and demo is almost guaranteed to help you level up your didgeridoo playing. Circular breathing is not required, though it will enhance the results. The video also features a special guest appearance with Kevin Nathaniel from It's All About Rhythm who teaches us how to count out this rhythm and gives a little background about where it comes from. |

| Why learn an advanced rhythm on any instrument? AJ Block here. I once went to a week long singing workshop with the great Bobby McFerrin and one of the biggest takeaways was the following. Bobby said that if you want to improve as a musician, no matter what instrument you play, one of the best things you can do is to take a very difficult piece of music and learn it really well. Every time you do that, it is going to take your playing to a higher level. I really took that to heart. I studied classical piano, jazz piano, trombone, didgeridoo, trumpet, flute, guitar and many other instruments. Since I got that teaching I really tried to push myself on these instruments and learn difficult pieces of music. Just that alone has taken me so far. So I really encourage you, take a piece of music like the one in this new video, and if you can play it at a nice tempo with some embellishments it is going to take your playing to another level. Enjoy!

| Didge
Project is a blog, youtube channel, series of courses and events,
instrument store and a collective of musicians who want to help you use
music as a tool for uplifting yourself and others around you.
On
our site you will find tips and tutorials to help you become a better
musician, didgeridoo lessons, instrument features and reviews, and
reports on the latest scientific research and spiritual discoveries
merging through the medium of sound.
When
we began in 2008 our main focus was on teaching how to play the
didgeridoo, a wind instrument originating in aboriginal Australia and
also said to be present in ancient Mayan times. After working with
countless people it became apparent that most musicians play multiple
instruments and that we have the community resources to help all
musicians get better results. While we still provide didgeridoo lessons,
classes and programs, our focus is to provide tutorials for music and
instruments from all around the world. Visit us for great music
