Japanese YouTuber Misa has attracted quite a following for her tutorial videos covering songs, many of which popular anime themes or top-ranking J-pop hits, that show how to play a Kalimba--an idiophone sometimes commonly referred to as a thumb harp or thumb piano. Her skill with the instrument and the soothing sounds it produces are enough alone to watch, but her videos often show off the scenery of her home in Indonesia with the use of a drone that makes them all the more relaxing.
Even the up-tempo songs she covers are arranged by Misa in a way that retains the charm of the original while creating a beautiful music. Here's a few standout examples of her calming renditions!
One Summer's Day (Spirited Away)
Tales from Earthsea (Tales from Earthsea)
Gurenge (Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba, LiSA)
Homura (Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba, LiSA)
It's not all anime tunes, however. Misa has also gorgeously covered some of the biggest pop songs of the year in Japan, including viral hits by YOASOBI, Ado, and Korean superstars BTS.
Yoru Ni Kakeru/Into The Night (YOASOBI)
Usseewa (Ado)
Dynamite (BTS)
For even more awesome Kalimba covers, be sure to follow Misa on YouTube, Instagram, and Twitter!
