      ​@Jelly-lc2db Why would you even question that? I have ten myself. 3 Lingtings, 1 Gecko, 1 Seeds Chromatic, 1 Chills Angel Chromatic, and 4 Hugh Traceys. They aren't hard to get from Kalimbamagic or Amazon with prices ranging from $40 to $150. Prove it? My word is proof. Prove that it's not.

      Do you notice how he puts his forefingers over the tines? Do you think that's just for support or to shorten the resonance. I have a difficult time preventing the tines from vibrating against my fingernails causing buzzing when playing repetitive notes. Doesn't happen on the stiff tined Gecko but very pronounced on my other Kalimbas and I have very short nails. I can eliminate it by using thumb guards but I hate playing with those things. His finger positioning, if used to deaden the vibration, is possibly an interesting solution.

      I agree, as a Kalimba user myself, I find it hard to increase tempo since the tines are narrow.

      ​@@Adrjan77 ye prolly true. That's why that person isn't able to perceive and be in the shoe of the other person. Right or wrong, if another person doesn't get what one is doing, he doesn't understand half or 1/4th or prolly nothing of what or how the other person thinks, so technically yes

    This specific Kalimba performance is a style all its own. I feel sorry for negative people who do not understand it.
    It’s hard to explain but; most people who play this instrument only use just their thumbs and strike the tines to create a single sound, this man however is a true pro! He uses his index fingers to change the tone of the strike and also on the last down beat of the bridge as he hits a note he hits it so hard that when his thumb comes of the tine it then strikes the wood of the Kalimba which gives off a percussion sound. Like hitting a block or drum to keep tempo. Truly amazing 🥰

    Actually this is a difficult technique for playing Kalimba, Since he plays with jazzy scales, it sounds really complicated if you are really understands about music.
    The problem of this performance is only the sounds. They should make better sound check before the real concert because this instruments is literally not loud enough such as guitar, piano, violin on the big stage like this.

    The fact that this man could make a solid dance track off of a kalimba is remarkable.
    Note for note this is something a full-scale EDM production would try to replicate and it would be considered a banger. Suddenly it's coming out of a kalimba and people say it sounds bad. Turn your fuckin' ears on.
    Not only is it a great piece of music alone, but the skill it takes to play it on this particular instrument is ridiculous.

    He is performing the ancient soul of it´s origin in master´s way.
    No copy, but intiuve in a perfect timing to be telling a lot.
    I use go the same way but very diffrently.
    What I do is to record a talking just by the simple device of my phone in a moment of now and to be sending it to the distant person that was leaving me a messagge before, by words or none.
    Never I know what I am doing in this moment, never I can repeat because the sound is meant to be nothing else
    than the modulated air by an unspoken word, while the spirit has already crossed continents and oceans.
    Some of my recordings, framed by some selfmade images, to be seen at my channel became made when the message of the sound has done it´s job.
    Now they are meant to be shared.
    This master is an old traveling soul.
    My deepest respect for him.

      It's more about the rhythm than the actual melody. He's showing that playing the kalimba doesn't necessarily have to result in some sweet lullaby melody. It can also be played in more percussive manner. It's just unconventional and you're not used to it. I loved it.
