  • Wonderful! This would be terrifying to hear in the distance on a dark snowy night.

  • My best friend, a Native American and art teacher, introduced me to this video through the Eideljorg museum for Native American arts and life in Indianapolis, IN. I was awestruck. How hauntingly beautiful....so intimate, so primordial. It put tears in my eyes and my heart into my throat. When I later showed this piece to my husband we both were completely mezmorized. We stood breathless. It struck us to the core ...........

    Nice analysis. THe ladiess performance is awesome indeed.

  • @bdancer202 i just discovered the throat singing and I am blown away i never knew these people did this i cant get enough of throat singing

  • Love it!

  • i never seen my tribal women other than my family for i live in the lower 48 and i tell you our women are hot and beautiful

  • It kind of sounds like a pack of wolves, too. The more airy noises sound like someone breathing hard while trying to run from the wolves. heh

    dunno lol

  • Holy SHIT, guys. This is so cool~!

  • o.o

    that was epic!

  • Awesome. The touching and face-to-face interaction are (in technical terms, I guess) a high bandwidth, out-of-band control channel to allow low latency.

    You'll notice that most "distributed" syncs, anything without a drummer or a conductor to force the sync, are plagued by slowdowns. This and other inuit vids just keep on nailing the pace. Nice!

    Thanks for sharing, ladies.

  • This is very amazing! And yes, it sounds very much like a saw....imagining a large two-man saw cutting through a very thick tree!
