The last part makes me feel comfort for a strange reason like cute grunting and snuggling creatures like family from a primordial setting I really belong in
i can come to consider my opportunities to connect to him a privilege though it seems he is not in a mood to playfight today. yeterday he did something submissive. i'm not sure whats going on. perhaps i'll have to take a look at what things have changed in his life recently and go from there
songs like the first track are called Katajjaq, which are like a game or collaborative competition between women. two women will face each other closely and imitate things like animal sounds half a step off from one another. the first to laugh or stumble looses.
it's supposed to be! i heard a story that Inuit throat singing was made to calm down the babies inside the amauti (parka that can carry a baby on the mother's back), plus it's also fun to do to pass time
The jews harp parts make me feel like I am lost in a snowy tundra and suddenly find a lone tall wooden totem in the middle of nowhere, and starting feeling an uncanny awe, like approaching the edge of the known world and, beyond this point, "there be dragons".
All the indingeous of the Americas come from Siberia ultimately (ignoring like the Solutreans and other very ancient Atlantean admixture, and some later few Polynesians with the Inca etc )
Je ne dirais pas comme vous. Je pense qu'une vague de son, de couleur, de trait, d'idée passe sur le monde et chacun, à son endroit récolte ce qui a été donné. Alors, pour une même grande vague qui a enveloppé les esprits créatifs nous avons différentes versions de ce qui nous a été donné. J'espère être claire dans ce que je dis. 🤗
Probably, like I remember seeing somewhere (I don't know if it true or not) that chanting actually has physical and mental benefits, and like meditation has been shown to improve cognition processing. So maybe, like you said, this breathing exercise could have an effect that naturally warms the body and is quite beneficial for living in harsh winter conditions
@@thefrenchpoet3160 Actually, it's generally just done for entertainment purposes. The sounds are supposed to mimic the weather or the noises of animals. However, it was customary that when the men went to war, the women would gather and throat sing together. I doubt any of the cognitive benefits would really be that important in that situation though.
I don’t know if there are any Inuits here other than me but what I know is that they are stories and each song tells a different one, nothing to do with winds or quads. Aswell as telling stories the vibrations on their throats are soothing for the babies that sit in their amautis (kinda Like a sweater with a big good for the babies)
The Inuit people are badass. They crossed the Bering Straits to settle in the North American Arctic. That takes incredible strength, indurance, intelligence, conviction, resolve, and purpose. I wonder what compelled them to migrate. I have a feeling they were driven, like many who decide to pack up and move, by fleeing persecution from authoritarians, seeking liberty and peace. When you consider the likes of Attila the Hun, this becomes plausible.
They found foot prints in south America 15,000+ years before previously estimated you do the math to get from Mongolia to end tip of south America but i got a theory that could change how we see the migration
The Inuit have been in North America since long long before Attila the Hun. They probably were chasing food. They came long before there was any significant authoritarian power anywhere on the globe.
They didn't intentionally cross the Bering Strait to get somewhere. Every few generations a couple of people moved a little bit more to the North/East. >I have a feeling they were driven, like many who decide to pack up and move, by fleeing persecution from authoritarians, seeking liberty and peace. That's incredibly anachronistic. They were hunter gatherers, they were only subject to the authority of their parents and tribe leaders, from which they obviously couldn't escape by moving with the tribe. Maybe getting away from specific people was a bit of a reason to move a bit further to the North or West, but it's not a necessary one. They didn't have the world mapped out, they were just going where animals were and where it looked nice.
The irony of two white guys in the replies mansplaining to a Slavic woman lol. Mother Olga of Alaska (a Native woman who knew Russian and is an Orthodox Saint) pray for us. 🙏 ☦️
@@seronymus Slavs have nothing to do with Inuit and even if they had, that wouldn't negate their point. That said, Eskimo is perfectly fine and we should look down on primitives, that's part of being cultured.
@@yemyearmii7231it means "those who eat raw meat" if i remember correctly, and i mean, it's not really wrong as far as i know, then again, niger is just latin for black yet it's considered a slur so idk...
So yall when i first heard this I thought it was realy crazy, like animal sounds and guitars that sound like didgeridoos. But after listening 3 time now, I've really come around to reality liking this music. I've been breaking it down Jamming out in my kitchen. My siblings and cousins think I'm crazy, but I love this, its pretty alright... This music is easy to write off a savage, but its really grown on me. Thank you from Louisiana!
I feel like we should all chant or sing. The vibrations seem like they do us good. Joy. Try to follow along. The breathing required makes ya light-headed pretty quickly. I've played a didgeridoo. The vibration you can feel right through you.
Endless snow and ice. No food and weak shelter. -10 to -45 weather conditions. This songs just mirrors of hard and deadly life. Thats why it feels uncomfortable.
There was no weak shelter all the men had to learn how to make the igloos when they were just 10 thru 14 or they wouldn't be able to get wives when they reached adult hood also he would be able to survive because we would use a thing called a kudlik to heat up the entire igloo and there would be caribou "tuktu" fur coats, mitts, and kamiks "boots" 😅 thought I would explain
Endless snow and ice? In the winter. The snow melts in the summer in the arctic. No food? Plenty of animals to hunt - if you use your brain and figure out how to catch them. Weak shelter? Tents aren't that weak, and igloos are actually a considerable feat of engineering regarding structure and insulation. Songs mirroring the harsh lifestyle? Well, yes. The throat singing, materials for instruments, and language itself were shaped by their surroundings, although they are not the only factors.
It is rather strange how it has that rhythm that is commonly attributed to Africa. Pretty much all the music in the world has the same groove. Like, you could play the jazz swing cymbal pattern on this, or a Jamaican reggae or ska , or soca. The same rhythm is in Scottish dance and Irish fiddle music. Pretty suspect.
@@chrisscott6417 True, but I also first thought of sampling and Hip Hop immediately when I heard this. Dozens of loops on this. If it grooves, it grooves. BIG up to The Residents ✌️
@@brythonekgrey1744 One day, the crow and the harfang got really bored. Crow said to harfang: "What could we do to entertain ourselves?" Harfang answered: "What about painting our feathers?" He took one of his feather and plunged it in burned seal oil. The craw began to paint the harfang, drawing little black spots over his body. It fitted very well to him. Then it was Crow's turn. But seeing Harfang's style, he got really happy and excited. Too much. He was actually making small jumps even though Harfang was trying to draw over him. "Come on Crow, I can't paint you if you're that excited!!" Crow didn't stop at all. At the end, Harfang got so annoyed that he took the whole ink and throw it over jumping Crow. From this day, the crows are all black.
@@brythonekgrey1744 We have an association in France to spread knowledges about Inuit society and they wrote a small book about tales from this people! I read it when I was a kid! 😊
The notion of talent means some have most abilities to sing than others. Thus, nowadays in our societies, the act of singing is "stolen" by the so called "singers", and "stars" and people "without any talent" are just supposed to imitate the song of the talented one, hum or shet their mouth. In those societies, a very larger part of people sing because it's a social act. Some are best at singing but all are singing. Everyone is listener and singer in the same time, and singing is everyone's property. Songs connect people to each other and are not creating gaps between people. That's why I don't like the notion of talent. In my region, there is NO song making a link between people and it's only observable in three regions in the country where the culture has remain strong after decades of capitalistic society. Woh this comment is huge, I guess you didn't expect that with the seven words you wrote...
@@edouardomaindargent7685 I completely agree! Singing is a part of human nature and too many aspects of human nature are contests for who can do it best.
OMG! This is is Awesome, I really want to beat my "bomme" hearing this and join in with a great jam session, OMG this is great. but then again I love the Inut culrurre so I am maybe not as objective as I should be
Hi, I would love to use part of "Aiya surli tikiatasanga" on the new album I'm working on. Do you know if it's copyright protected? How can I get my hands on an mp3 other than ripping it directly from this youtube video? I would appreciate your help :) cheers
Heyyy, i also wanted to take a sample and use it in my mix, did you found out about the copyrights? Thanks in advance and if you made some material yet using these sounds im curious to give a listen, link it here if you made somethin

I believe I hear a jaw harp. Was this a traditional instrument of the Inuit or did they adopt the instrument from European settlers? Or perhaps the musicians are just using a breathing technique that sounds like a jaw harp?
I believe it was originally a derivative of the Khomus. It is still widespread in Yakutia, Mongolia, and its surrounding areas. Even some of the smaller peoples of the Far East use them. So yes, they are native to the music.
Jaw harps are very ancient instruments and are very popular in Far East Asia. Search Altai or Khomus and there are many ppl who play jaw harp in Siberia, Mongolia, India, Eastern Europe.
im going through a current Avatar the Last Airbender obsession. was curious to hear music from the culture that Katara and Sokka's culture is based on! 😊
@eb Ka Their language is not Turkic. They may follow similar rules, but that is a feature of the geographical area (the arctic) - lots of agglutination. Neither are they too closely related to Turkic peoples. The most likely candidates I've heard for an ethnolinguistic relation are the Algic and Chukoto-Kamchatkan, respectively - but this is still a matter of great controversy. I think its too early to consider Eskimo-Aleutian as certainly related to any other family.
Well, we should reuse those sounds and throat singing styles for new songs! What Inuit are waiting for? been forbidden to sing for decades, now they are not anymore, go on guys! I'd like to make it but haters will say that's cultural appropriation! This could make fucking good songs and please everyone!
