I bought a cheap kalimba and like to just sit on the ground plucking away while my dog “listens” next to me. Just think of all the relaxing bonding time I could be skipping if I had a “generate song” button on my computer…
Kalimbas are the greatest little instrument for just plinking around and having fun musical explorations! You can sit down and learn hard … or you can just play around and see what cool little riffs you can come up with in an almost trance-like state.
Warning! You got a cheap kalimba. That’s how I started. #5 was … ah … significantly more expensive…

I think I will be building my next one…this one was $45 and the high tines are pretty quiet and hard to pluck. I’d like to go down a half octave, too
I want to get a DIY kit to make a kalimba tuned to one of the Chinese pentatonic scales.
Oooohhh that’d be interesting! I don’t know much about Chinese scales…which is sad…because I own a Zhonghu for some reason.
Respect. The whole huqin family is fiendishly difficult to play.
Imagine if you had the latest AI-powered GoodestDoggo©, you would have a generate song button on your “dog”!
