Hey hey,
I'm looking for the name to an instrument. I had a feeling I was looking for a
whirly tube (or corrugaphone), but apparently not. I'm looking for the sound
in this song:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m-jYpFa3Ppk
audible between 22-27 seconds. It sounds like a whispering diggeridoo or jaw
harp. I thought a corrugated tube could produce this sound when whilred, but
all demos I heard of this were much higher and much more pronounced in clear
pitch.
I'd be very grateful if someone could give me a clue or pointer of how to
continue the search at least.
Best whishes,
Jeanette

My mind actually went to a nylon string acoustic guitar. You get
something like that sound when pick scraping the lowest strings. I
might be zoning in on the wrong sound though.

Just in case, you can hear the sound at the end. The very last sound of
the piece is the one I'm looking for, if an octave lower.

Are you sure it's acoustic? The wobble in the sound makes me think of
the "dubsteb effect". It might be used on top of an acoustic
instrument though. The sound itself at the end sounds more like the
Indian drone type of sounds, like what a tanpura would make, but you
could maybe get it from an acoustic guitar as well, by playing it with
a bow.

I thought of strings too - I believe you could get a sound like this from a cello, bowed
near the bridge with a gentle touch on a string. Then record and loop for rhythmic
consistency. I think Imogen Heap is a cellist among other things, so that maybe lends some
plausibility as well.

Exactly: among other things, which is what makde it so difficult. But
yes a bowed string with some processing could do the trick well.

Granted for me personally YouTube is rather a lost cause these days, but I
have a simple idea.
why not ask the artist behind the song?
find their site, reach out if both you and they use twitter, etc. i
imagine they will be pleased you noticed their creativity, and happy to
discuss how they achieved the sound.

Hi
what I can hear here between 22-27 seconds are a bass flute and a string
instrument maybe an ukulele.
