I was eating lunch with my friends Adil and Tori, and I knew Adil could do a great dub step noise. He told us it’s a combination of Kargyraa throat singing and simultaneous beat boxing. I convinced him to let Tori and I record a sample of it. The noises heard are Adil’s dub step sounds, his explanation of it, Tori’s enthusiasm from it, and my affirmation of how cool Adil is.
