Making drum patterns or drum loops with our mouth

Easy to program as our brain does the job of conveying what it wants.


It is very easy to tune the drum sounds to the song, just like singing. If anything else is being monitored at the same time it would be at low volume as pitch perception of our brain depends on intensity and not only frequency [1].'


Had the open hi hat at the end of some bars come from the nessasity of breathing? If making drum sound patterns by mouth it is coming naturally.
