Beatbox Brilliance: Tom Thum at TEDxSydney

(youtube) Tom Thum: Armed with just a microphone, Thum pushes the limits of the human voice to create incredible soundtracks of impossible beats and phenomenal sounds, with scratched vinyl, the Michael Jackson back-catalogue, the didgeridoo and an entire fifties jazz band amongst his vocal repertoire.

this guy does same thing as Beardy, only Beardy is has been doing it lot longer.

Beardy does it all with his mouth, then he used to use Korg Kaoss Pad III's that this guy goes to halfway into the presentation. Which is also seems to be direct copy of Beardy's style. Since a lot of beatboxers started using Korg Kaoss Pad's Beardy sorta got annoyed and moved to using 2 tablets with proprietary software he had written he calls the Beardytron. Go to Beardyman's channel on youtube his concerts are free

I'd be curious what some of the jazz legends, like Davis, Monk, Coltrane, Parker.. would think of this guy. Would they think he's without a real talent? Or would they think he's got soul?
