Default Throat and overtone singing

There are many throat singing and overtone singing traditions around the world and also lots of modern singing with those elements. Any fans here?

Some examples:

Huun-Huur-Tu might be among the more famous tuvan groups:

Sainkho Namtchylak, also from Tuva, mixes traditional music with more modern and experimental stuff. Here seen doing something more traditional though.

Oidupaa Vladimir Oiun might be a more obscure example. His music is unusual, because the tuvan singing is accompanied by the bayan, a russian type of accordeon

A breathtakingly beautiful piece by the immensely talented mongolian singer Enkhjargal Dandarvaanchig, mostly known as Enkh Jargal.

Some western overtone singing by Christian Bollmann. A little too "new age" perhaps, but nonetheless beautiful and technically astounding.

Two clips by Christian Zehnder, a swiss singer who mixes throat singing, yodeling and other styles into something probably best described as imaginary folklore.
