Important tip: quit playing upside down: all the blood rushing to your head will surely have negative effects on tone.

Tip number 2. Extrasensory Perception is not strong in the harp playing community, so post SOMETHING if you would like a critique.

I meant to write something the other day after watching your clip, but I was pressed for time and I see you've pulled your post down probably due to the lack of reception you've received which is understandable.
At the time, I thought you had the harpboxing thing down pretty good. I was wondering how well that translates to the upper end of the harp so that you could keep your playing a little more fluid and not have to change from harpboxing when you get past the first six holes.
You get points in my book for using the whole range of the harmonica. I thought your tone was fine... no real honking or harsh notes that I recall.
I seem to remember you've already incorporated that cough or out-breath that Adam talks about in some of his videos. That's good too.
I have some critiques, but I'll hold off on them since you were pretty quick to pull your clip down. I encourage you to put it back up. Most of the things I heard can be improved with time and dedication. I can hear that you've already dedicated yourself to get where you are. ---------- Ridge's YouTube

It is not unusual for posts of video to go unremarked for a time while people consider what, if anything, would be productive to post. Sometimes people are busy or don't know what to say.
I encourage you to have patience and if your post moves off the screen, bump it back to the top with another message. ----------
