Beatboxing or beatboxing is one of the directions of the youth subculture, based on the reproduction and imitation of rhythmic patterns and melodies, using exclusively the capabilities of your own vocal apparatus. Among connoisseurs, beatbox is revered as the "fifth element" of hip-hop culture, especially often used for accompaniment in related compositions.
Instructions
Step 1
If you want to get a more complete picture of beatboxing, it is best to listen to one of the compositions performed by foreign masters - Tom Thum, Slizzer, ZeDe, or domestic ones - Bitwell, Vakhtang Kalandadze, Jeton on the Internet. So, according to beatboxing professionals, its "alphabet" consists of only three sounds - classic kick (kick), hi-hat (hat) and snare drum (rimshot). To get the sound "kick", try to pronounce our native "b" with your lips alone, without using your voice. This sound is usually denoted by the Latin "B".
Step 2
The simplest sound is “hat”. Pronounce "ts" or "t" softly, also without using your voice. If it works, mark it as "t". The sound of a rim shot resembles a beat on the rim of a drum. It consists of the letter "k", which you must pronounce using only the larynx without a voice. At the same time, open your mouth as wide as possible. This will ease your efforts and "k" will sound much better. On beatboxing "scores", rimshots are denoted by the letters "Ka".
Step 3
Now you can move on to the main beat - a kind of beatboxing scale. It looks like this: B t Ka t B t Ka t. Repeat these sounds until you feel the result. If you did, try other options, which are abundant on the Internet.
Step 4
And here are examples of some of the sounds also used in beatboxing. To perform lip oscillation (Bww), bring your lips together and exhale air through them without relaxing your lips. Then try to perform a closed hi-tet (t), for which you put your tongue on the front lower teeth, as when pronouncing the letter "t" (something between "t" and "t").
Step 5
And now, add a long "c" to what happened, and you get an open hi-tet (tss). To pronounce the sound handklep (kch), rest your tongue against the upper palate and take a sharp breath. Techno-kick (g) resembles a swallowing sound. You should tighten your throat and make a long “y” sound with your mouth closed.
