Here I am.

One of my biggest passion in life is "To sing".
I can sing anywhere i want, don't need to check my instrument at the border, no need to buy an extra sit on the airplane to go to a gig... in other words... is my natural instruments and i can take it with me anywhere i like.

I used to sing when i was a little kid in the Choir of the Lutheran School in Pompei, near Naples, and since that day I never stopped singing. Singing is an art and some people in this huge planet have a very unique point of view regarding singing .

In the past we use to sing to imitate the noise produced by birds, animals, wind, actually if you take a look at the evolution of a simple instrument such as the guitar , from acoustic piece of wood into an electric guitar capable of reproducing the sound of a motorcycle for example, or the sound of an airplane.. well

If you apply the same concept to the voice you can create anything you want.

Most nomads tribes from Mongolia use their throat to sing, to be able to reproduce two different sounds at the same time. I did it with my guitar, and i used the same technique to modulate my voice as you can see in this video.

Throat singing is a universe so wide and huge that i might need an encyclopedia to describe it properly, so let's be more simple.

We can start talking about the different tribes from around the world throat singing.

In Canada, the Inuit form of throat singing, or katajjaq in Inuktitut, is practiced almost exclusively by women.

Overtone singing, known as eefing, a style of throat singing unique to the Xhosa people of Bantu in southeastern South Africa. The irony is that; " to Eefing" has become a symbol of Hillbilly culture.

But actually in South Africa throat singing is very popular and there so many different styles

"Boom" even Italy as his own style.. from Sardinia

Recently throat singing is getting so popular thanks to internet and YouTube, that as a result there many artists able to recreate real magic
