I've always thought a HAPI drum was a poor copy of a Hang drum, but this kind of video makes me think there's room for both instrument. It sounds pretty good !
Hey John awesome job at playing another awesome HAPI! I love this color, and the logo is really cute! I am suffering from HAPI withdrawals! LOL! Tell your HAPI people nice job, particularly the logo and paint. I agree with Neil, it's be great to hear dueling HAPIS.
John, I absolutely can't get this out of my head...I LOVE IT! I'm seriously considering buying one of these in this scale, just to tap on and play with. Its got the best sound so far of any of these drums! :) I have to say that anyone that puts you down as a flake or such is pretty short-sighted and unsophisticated.
after seeing one of your videos by accident, I then wantched a few more. I never would have thought I would like your kind of music. Thank you for opening my ears to such good music.
John, striking color on this F major. You continue to weave your magic with every new HAPI song. Was a pleasure meeting you at the Didge Festival. My friend enjoyed your HAPI workshop. My new HAPI E major has arrived. Wife has taken it captive!
I want one NOW!
