  • WHERE DID YOU BUY THIS? I MUST HAVE ONE

  • @raushkanaush Look for Hugh Tracy Kalimbas on kalimbamagic[dot]com

  • I don't want to sound like Im insulting hahah at first I thought you where playing it fooly but when you star really playing I was like :O

  • @darevil009 Yeah, the beginning is the less prevalent part you hear during the beginning of the dialogue normally. Really can't wait for Legend of Korra =D

  • @Rezic Do you have to connect it to an amp or something ?

  • @KarmaMustardGamer I don't have to for its natural sound that you're hearing in this video. However, if you head over to my Safe Return "remix" video you'll hear what a kalimba sounds like with delay. For that I plugged it into a delay unit and an Amp. Also, if your interested in my playing subscribe. I'll be posting a video later this month for my subscribers for a new channel of mine specifically made for music like this. ^^

  • Its really something when you go on the web and find that so many other people find the same tune to be so beautiful and haunting (Safe Return), but its even more astounding to find that someone took the time to replicate it (with the original instrument, no less!). Great job, my jaw dropped as soon as you started playing (though, I had no idea what a Kalimba was prior to this video). Great job, man.

    And what a beautiful sound coming out of that thing!

see all
