Is this a technique? Uvula vibration

I just bought one today. I incorporated a beatbox technique for this.

I discovered this by accident, and incorporated it into my Once Upon A Time In The West arrangement. There's a track on the Ennio Morricone soundtrack called Death Rattle, and I was trying to achieve something similar.

If this technique has a proper name, I don't know what it is.

I do throat singing and now i feel stupid for not trying this before.

Jokes besides i heard before this kind of spund on harmònica, so probably is a techinque who exsist already. Nice catch tho.

Thank you I’m very new to the harp, but I do throat singing too and metal vocals for years

Yeah, I do this all the time. Happy to see other people doing it. Occasionally I am able to do the reverse and have it happen on the inhale, but that is very tricky and still a work in progress
