    Anyone into polyphonic singing?

    Below is a link to my current skill level.

    For those who don't know, polyphonic singing is basically being able to hold two different notes at the same time...there are a couple of different methods. Mongolian throat singing comes to mind.

    @Ridley Wolf My best attempts at mongolian styled throat singing. If youtube it, you'll see why I call it my best attempt.

    Sounds like the vocal version of the instrument my username is named after.

    All done purely by vocals. I do the one in the first track to annoy my co-workers.

    It sounds pretty decent. I've never really tried to do polyphonic singing, it's not really my thing. Besides, I have a terrible singing voice anyways.

    Well, you don't exactly have to have the best singing voice for some polyphonic stuff. You just gotta know how to turn your mouth into a good resonator. It's not as hard as it sounds.
