I think my dirty mind might be getting out of hand

From the Wikipedia page for Ainu throat singing:

"The Ainu method involved two women facing each other, with one forming a tube with her hands and chanting into the oral cavity of her partner. The technique is essentially one where the "giver" provides the voice and the "receiver", holding her glottis closed, uses her vocal tract to modulate the sound stream."

Uh huh.

Bob

I, uh... what?

Also, you're not alone.

Gelzo

Neat.

Heh. "Cavity."

I like how dirty "glottis" sounds.

Bob

Sounds too technical to sound dirty to me

DonZabu

Now "larynx", that's where it's at.

Ainu throat singing sounds very roundabout.

Here's something you can try at home:

First, sing a note to yourself. Then, press the tip of your tongue toward the back of your mouth, so that your tongue has a sort of L-shape going. Now, sing that note again, but this time, move the back part of your tongue up and down a bit. You'll be singing two notes at once.

I just keep making some weird gargling sound.

Anonus

It feels like I'm choking.

Congratulations on discovering harmonics.

I can actually do two notes at once, but it's VERY hard to control them.  It involves humming a high note and producing a low note from the back of the throat.

^ I tried doing that just now. Ended up alternating between steam whistle and bleating donkey.
