Awesome Beatboxing

South Korean beatboxers Two.H & Hiss aka MNSTWNSS covers their microphones with ample amounts of spit as they turn in an energetic and truly impressive performance for the Swissbeatbox channel. Check out their second recording here.

After giving us a gross, but fascinating view of his talented vocal chords using an endoscope, beatboxer Tom Thum subjected himself to a claustrophobia-inducing MRI tube and headcage to get a look at how things work inside his face, neck, nose, and throat.

If you thought the expressions beatboxers make while producing sounds were weird, wait till you get a load of this. Tom Thum allowed a doctor to place an endoscopic camera with a view of his throat while he beatboxed. The video is equal parts fascinating and disgusting.

From Flash Gordon to Spider-Man to Ghostbusters, beatboxer Tom Thum turned in a fantastic, but all too short medley of themes from popular movies and TV series. They’re all great, but that Knight Rider one was epic.

Chinese beatbox champion Zhang Ze shows off his mad skills, which include the ability to create some crazy zipper-like noises, along with more crazy mouth sounds than the guy from the Police Academy flicks.

Beatboxer Tom Thum turns in an epic live performance of his track Ratchet Face, spitting out crazy sounds, and impressing us with his mad looping and sequencing skills. Though there were times we couldn’t help think of Billy Bob Thornton in Sling Blade.

Hailing from Portugal, beatboxer JEWOW loses his mind, flails his arms wildly, and rattles our eardrums, as he demonstrates his ability to create some absolutely insane sounds with his mouth. Also, Fargo guy plays the drumsticks.

Forgive the “shot with a potato” quality video, but this clip is all about the audio anyhow. Listen as Zac and his daughter show off their talents with a brief beatbox improv. We’re sure that someday she’ll show her dad who’s boss. (Thanks Carlos-David!)

We’ve heard beatboxer Tom Thum before, and the sampled loop thing at the beginning of his vertical video shot on a potato is nothing new, but he totally steps it up about a minute in, when we discover that he’s actually a turntable disguised as a human.

The 2015 Beatbox Battle female world champion Kaila Mullady gives us a sample of her various samples in this awesome shoutout to Swissbeatbox. Watch her championship-winning performance here.

St. Louis beatboxer Nicole Paris takes on her dad to see who can spit sounds better. Dad’s pretty good, but it’s quickly apparent that young Nicole has outpaced the skills of her sensei. We always want our kids to do better than us, right?

Performer Roy Kafri’s quirky beatbox track Mayokero is handily upstaged by director Vania Heymann’s clever music video, in which classic vinyl album covers come to life and sing his track.

Smarter Every Day teamed up with the funny and talented DJ Flula to talk about the basics of beatboxing, including the concepts of timbre and overtone. Check out Flula’s channel to see more of his lips in slow motion.

After watching this clip of a Russian soldier spitting beats faster than an electronic drum machine, we almost felt the need to wipe his saliva off our monitors. Thankfully, YouTube hasn’t perfected SpitSurround technology yet.

Darren Foreman aka Beardyman is a beatboxing legend, but he’s still constrained by his body. So he’s working on the Beardytron 5000, a music production system that makes it easier for him to go from imagination to realization.

(NSFW: Lyrics) DUKE rips up a truly original cover of the Robin Thicke/Pharrell/T.I. pop tune Blurred Lines by a trio of British guys you’d never imagine singing this track. More here.

Popular Japanese beatboxer Daichi teams up with an unlikely performance partner, tap dancer SHUN, to create an awesome showcase for both of their frenetic, noise-making talents.

Beatboxer AleM speaks French, but all you need to know is that his ability to tap dance with his mouth will have you waiting for his tongue to catch fire. Watch him test his speed using a metronome.

“Oral legend” Beardyman purses his lips and puts on an entertaining and amazingly diverse vocal performance at the BBC Comedy Proms in front of a crowd at Britain’s Royal Albert Hall.

Get a sample of Zach Andrew’s impressive mixture of beatboxing and guitar skills as he runs through Eminem’s hits. Hopefully the real Slim Shady approves. Zach also does Street Fighter tunes!
