Anyone playing non typical harmonica genre?

Thank you everyone for all inputs. I know I’m not the only one, but as the topic was not really discussed I was wondering if I wasn’t just crazy trying to play lo-fi hip hop on the harmonica (even if I would not stopped if everyone was telling me it is stupid :sweat_smile: ).

@scott4 I really like your approach about pickup songs that challenge your weaknesses. I do that to some extent too with @Luke lessons as I go back through all of them tongue blocking

@Corky_Music Thank you for sharing and for the advice. O love Love Filikso’s Dream! Truly impressive. I guess the difficulty for me is that I have been playing (harmonica and music) for just 2 years and since 4 months ago in the process of switching all my technique to tongue blocking. I am still trying to work on some basic technique. Point is I do not have a “style that is already me” to bring at the moment. I also like your point about “but always successful as an artistic endeavor”. I guess even if I’m not successful with that as an artistic endeavor and, as I was writing above, even if everyone would tell me I’m stupid, I think I would still do it if I have fun.

@Mugen a friend just sent me a link to this song, the last one I recorded with blues rap duo project before it broke up in 2019. Funny song. :rofl: I’d totally forgotten about it. What genre is it? :rofl:

Yes. Having fun! I vote for that! I had my string quartet play a piece that had about 20 different genres in it. As it turned out it all sounded like string quartet, music. LOL! No matter what you plan the harmonica it’s harmonica music.. So yes; “Having fun!” Let’s stick with that!
