MT-Yidaki Shop

Yiḏaki and mago are the original didgeridoo’s played by aboriginal people in the northern part of the Northern Territory, mainly in Arnhemland. These very diverse groups of people have these instruments in their culture since many generations.

Michiel's aim is to bring you high quality yiḏaki and mago of the highest cultural integrity. All the instruments are hand selected and made by traditional people on traditional land.

Since 2011 Michiel decided to re-invest a part of his annual proceedings as a didgeridoo player/teacher back in to Arnhem land culture. Which led to a shop full of instruments selected for their playability.

If you are looking for something particular feel free to drop a line and he will do his best to source it for you!

A specific type of yiḏaki that is called djamatjama. 400 km down south it is known as Ḻampiḻpiḻ. An istrument used by the Nunggubuyu people from Numbulwar.
It play’s in the key of G# and needs quite some energy by the player. But when you produce this power it will be rewarding. The sound is so big that the microphone on my phone could not really handle the presure. A big sound, but with good balance a which is rare for such a high key.
Yiḏaki stands for a diverse group of instruments that are used throughout the Miwatj region in Arnhemland.
