04 Jan 00 - 12:37 AM (#157725) Subject: Vocal Percussion Info From: John in Brisbane I recently attended a vocals workshop, part of which was devoted to emulating the sounds of bass, snare drum and hi-hat. Can anyone please provide details of exercises or relevant Web sites? At this stage I'm not into the face or chest slapping routines, just the basic stuff. Regards, John |

Also check out Keller Williams. He sounds like a whole band at once! He's still small enough to be approachable and is generally a friendly character. Finally, check out Len Graham. He incorporates some interesting rhythm while lilting mouth-music. Slan, Rich |

It's pretty amazing how much it sounds like instruments... One fellow in the group, ED, is my friend. I bet he might be able to be informative. Margo |
