Back when the USSR was a very closed society under the commie regime, U.S. physicist Richard Feinman tried for many years and ultimately succeeded in becoming one of the first westerners to travel to Tuva and also “discover” Tuvan throat singing.
RIP Aldyn-ool Sevek.
As an aside, thanks to some of the YouTube links posted here I just discovered a Tuvan rock band called Yat-Kha.
Not exactly traditional Tuvan folk music, but check out their covers of “When The Levee Breaks”...

I’m afraid it doesn’t sound like much to me. All I hear is droning.

In America, you sing with throat; in Soviet Russia, throat sings with you!

The first time I ever heard throat singing was on futurama (billy west).

Aw man, he was the Tuvan Elvis.
That's gonna be a long trek to see the estate on the anniversary of his death every year.
