Beatbox is the original instrument. It all comes from the voice, and today, we're going teach you the three basic sounds of beatbox, which make up the foundation of it. Now, the kick is the kick drum on the bottom and it makes the loud bass sound. It sounds like this. Alright, you hear that? How do you make that sound? Well, the way you make that sound is you take a "p" and you take a "b" and you mesh those two togehter and it's going to give you what we refer to as the kick drum. Pb Pb Pb So, alright, so you try this: Pb Pb Excellent! Now, the next sound is the all-mighty snare sound. And the snare sound is basically taking a "k" and an "a" and putting those two sounds together. And it sounds like this: Ka Ka Ka Alright, so just try that, really easy. Ka Ka Ka Now, the last sound is one of my favorite sounds. It's the hi-hat. The hi-hat's my favorite sound because it's always at the tip of your tongue. You basically take a "t" and an "s" and twist those two together and it's going to sound like this: Ts Ts Ts It's great, right? Alright so, you put all those together and you can mix some really amazing, wonderful music that you can do anywhere. You can do it in the car. We can make beats in the car, right? So, we can just drive though the city, making a beat, and it sounds something like this. Let's speak to them. Alright, so that's how you can actually speak to each other. Now, those are really complex beat and patterns, right? So, we're going to do a few beat and patterns with you and you can repeat after me so you can begin to learn these sounds, right? So, check this out: Pb Ts Ka Pa Ka Ts Ka Ts Ka Pb Pb Ka Ka Pb Ts Ts Ts Ka Pb So, we can take all of those different rhythms and sounds, and we can jam with each other by listening to each other, right?
