Have you heard Tuvan throat singing?

I love exploring new music. This is Tuvan throat singing from Mongolia (the link is below).
Just unbelievable the way they can sing "harmony" like a musical instrument. Normally, human beings are capable of singing only the melody- a sequence of musical notes one after the other. But these Mongolian singers can sing multiple notes (overtones) at the same time. It is like singing a "chord" by one person.

@friendinneed Sheldon has a go at it - (and does a pretty good job, considering how long he probably had to learn it) - but, it's not until you hear the real thing...that you hear how amazing it is.
