We are all beatboxers if you can make a sound and sequence it.
It’s not everyone’s passion is to be a beatboxer I fully understand that.
Beatboxing is about stepping out of the comfort zone and doing something that (lets be honest with each other ) is not normal behaviour.
The act of trying something or switching off and getting immersed in learning a new skill is beneficial. It has been for me.
Beatboxing has helped me channel my energy in a positive way.
Since Primary school I’ve had the urge to make sounds, fidget and move.
I developed Physical and Vocal tics at the age of ten. Something popped inside me and I could no longer suppress these urges. I was embarrassed and would do my upmost to disguise my tics.
At the age of thirteen and after buying some DJ decks I got into dance music in a big way.
One of my tics at the time was a throat gulp.
A week into having this particular tic I had this crazy moment.
Disengaged and day dreaming in a french lesson I turned these repetitive gulps into a 4/4 kick drum beat.
That was the start for me…
I could spend the next 3 days writing about my crazy life and experiences, thats for another time.
Enjoy the videos, I had a ball producing them with one of my closest friends Alex. Shout out to him, BoomHouse & Palm Studios.
Love to you all, always follow the good vibes :-)
