Without watching the video, I'm assuming by "The Human Beat-Box" you mean either Rahzel or Kenny Muhammed?

If not, you need to listen to those guys to appreciate beat-boxing'

Edit: Ok, just watched the video - like I said above. The guy in the video ain't nothin' on Rahzel and Kenny Muhammad. My mate's actually better that that dude at Max Power!

Rahzel is just awesome (how can one guy make the sound of an entire percussion/bass/rhythm section of a band plus sfx and scratch-style vocal?), got mp3s of him carrying an entire stadium on that stuff, and i would venture him "against" DJ Scribble doing similar things to a pair of decks to complete the cocktail. Massive respect to anyone who can do that sort of thing. It's like the old game/demo programmers seemingly pulling an entire orchestra out of a 3+1 channel square wave and white-noise chip...

too many people think they can when they can't though

i know i cant do it very well but its still fun to b-bop along in a bored moment. i think i might go off do it now... pick a rhythm, wet your lips and run with it

dont do that silly chav thing of trying to make a sounding box with your cupped hands though, it just sounds jank.

the trouble with beat boxing is that you sound like a d ck
