oh my god ive been hearing this on drum machines for years, was always intrigued but never been able to put a name to it until now. such a goofy but fun sound.
I wish I could be so mature that I could make constant references to "stroking the stick" without even cracking a smile or following it up with some kind of innuendo. Nice touch ending it with the fart joke, tho haha
Cuica is the South American Possum, but unlike the American opossum which plays Possum (or plays Dead). The Cuica Possum runs toward its attacker, making the sound of the Brazilian Cuica (friction drum) eee eee eee, which might work good for young predator. But running toward a Mom predator (with babies) may become a point ☠ of "Diminishing Returns ". lol 😂
No. You obviously haven't heard it played by a true master. George Clinton's legendary Parliament Funkadelic band used this instrument in the greatest Funk track of all time and it's EXQUISITE! (Not Just) Knee Deep (Full Version).
@@JSLing-vv5go Check out Roberta Flack's track Chidren's Song from the movie Busting Loose. In the hands of skilled musicians, artists and producers this instrument is superb. That's why it's used.
wow i had no idea this instrument existed, i always thought it was a human vocal making that sound, amazing stuff
I was wondering what it was too. Never expected it to be a drum
same
lol

This video made my day! This guy is my hero
All latino and afro latino Brasileiros stand up!!!!
Been stroking it for a long time but never got it to sqeak !
What an unusual instrument.
my grandfather played cuica back in Brazil before he moved to the US
My man Kurt!!! Miss you, bro...be safe, be blessed!
i had no idea this instrument existed, but i finally know what does this peculiar sound from the sims 1 soundtrack
When the stain of the handwasher just wont come out.
Amazing and really clear and funny lesson! Thanks!
This was awesome!!!!! The ending was brilliant!
There are so much sexual innuendo I lost count... Bead, stroking stick, do it with three fingers etc
"Sooner or later, you may break the stick inside the drum, if you do you swap out the head and you're good to go."
Ooooh mmyyyy...
'So go ahead and place your three fingers as close to the bead as possible and you're gonna wanna apply some pressure...'
Hmmmmmmm..............
Shaggadelic, baby!
Best YT Cuica instructional video ive found yet. Thanks Kurt!
Awesome! I want a cuica.... RIGHT NOW!

And my favorite part was when he, himself couldn't help but laugh when he said get yourself a pack of doobies.
Now I know what's going on in Floral Fury.

Holy shit. Why did I laugh so fucking hard at this.
Thanks a lot for the great tutorial!

I love this instrument. The first thing it reminds me of is the movie _City of God..._
But WOW this guy...uhm..yeeaah 👌😆

I want to listen to a cuica/kazoo concert.
The player looks as though he's trying to live like he's 23
thanks!
Who else laughed everytime he said "stroking the stick"
Waiting for dirty jokes

He looks my karate teacher
-HOW DOES YOUR KARATE TEACHER LOOK?-
He looks like my Boy Scout Leader.
The whole time I'm picturing this guy looking at a woman and thinking. This is how I do it. You see??
I had always thought this sound was coming from a string instrument.
Como se afina la chica
Shaggadelic, baby!
thiss is a cool sounding drum, it just looks odd when you play it, and when told how to play , , ,
Have a boy
it sounds like an ocarina made of clay
Are you sponsored by doobies??
I never knew that's how you pronounce it.
Reminds me of super mario sunshine
The little "shine get" jingle DOES use a midi cuíca :)
Get a pack of dobies. It's the secret of the ages.
Window washing intensifies
Someone needs to fix the synch on this...
:))))))

The LP cuica is the real deal. I've played lesser versions, and they take way too much work to play, not as versatile as the LP.
Is this even a drum?
LOL
Ugh the cuica should never be a solo instrument
S h u t u p
It's a percussion instrument
Far too much talking. Note enough demonstrating.
Take note, everyone. Even when played by a percussion master, the cuica is a terrible, terrible instrument...

@@ROJO25 Well I'm a huge Parliament fan. Knee Deep is the song that uses it? I'll check it out.
