0:00:34 > 0:00:37'tongue and voice to make musical sounds.'

0:00:37 > 0:00:39What should we do first?

0:00:39 > 0:00:42First thing we're going to do is warm up our voices

0:00:42 > 0:00:45to make sure we're ready to beatbox and sing, OK?

0:00:45 > 0:00:47We're going to take a big bit of imaginary bubble gum

0:00:47 > 0:00:49and put it in our mouths.

0:00:49 > 0:00:53Let me see you chewing. Have a good chomp round.

0:00:53 > 0:00:56Now we've stretched our faces, we need to loosen up our faces,

0:00:56 > 0:00:59so I need you to put your hands together like this.

0:01:31 > 0:01:33What happens now?

0:01:33 > 0:01:37I'm going to teach you the different sounds you need for beatboxing.

0:01:37 > 0:01:39First thing I want you to do is learn the bass drum.

0:01:39 > 0:01:41It sounds like this -

0:01:41 > 0:01:43BOOF! BOOF! BOOF! BOOF! BOOF!

0:01:43 > 0:01:46You need a nice loud "B" sound like this.

0:01:46 > 0:01:48ALL: Buh! Buh!

0:01:48 > 0:01:51After three, both of you at the same time, ready?

0:01:51 > 0:01:53- One, two, three... - BOTH:- BUH!

0:01:53 > 0:01:56Excellent. The next sound is the high hat.

0:01:56 > 0:01:58The high hat sounds like this -

0:01:58 > 0:02:00T-T-T-T-T-T-TT-T-T-TTT.
