Intuitive Soundscapes Collections: G-MAJOR COLLECTION

INTUITIVE SOUNDSCAPES COLLECTIONS

G-Major Collection

Intuitive Soundscapes Collections are curated sets of artisan instruments, all precisely tuned to play together in the same musical key. The G-Major Collection sits in the middle range of the feeltone product line — warm, grounding, and physically resonant when instruments are played on the body.

Every instrument in this collection is designed for intuitive play: there are no wrong notes. Layer tones freely, build on instruments you already own, and create immersive soundscapes without musical training.

What Are the Intuitive Soundscapes Collections?

Each Intuitive Soundscapes Collection centers on the feeltone Monochord as its sonic foundation, with complementary instruments tuned to match. The result: any combination of instruments in the collection harmonizes effortlessly, freeing you to play intuitively and layer sounds without preparation or sheet music.

This system also lets you expand collections you already own — simply match new instruments to your existing key.

A Note on Tuning: 432 Hz vs. 440 Hz

The video above features instruments tuned to 440 Hz with matching kalimbas. Chimes are only available in 432 Hz; all other instruments come in both 432 Hz and 440 Hz. Monochords can be tuned to your preference.

The Instruments of the G-Major Collection

Monolina & Monolini by feeltone — The Foundation

At the center of every Intuitive Soundscapes Collection is the feeltone Monochord — the Monolina and Monolini models, handcrafted in Germany. Monochords are dronal stringed instruments whose shimmering harmonics cascade like light on water, creating a meditative, monochrome chord that anchors the entire soundscape.

Tuned to G, the feeltone Monochord sits in the middle range of the product line — soothing yet physically resonant, especially when played on the body. Like a flying carpet, it carries all other instruments upon it, harmonizing their diverse timbres of wood and metal into a unified whole.

Tinka Tong G-Major — Wood Tongue Drum by feeltone

The Tinka Tong G-Major is feeltone's wood tongue drum, tuned to match the G-Major Collection. It produces short, light percussive tones that are earthy, warm, and grounding — a counterpoint to the sustained resonance of the monochord.

Depending on how it's played, the Tinka Tong can sound whimsical and cheerful or activating and energizing. It's especially effective at the opening or closing of sound journeys to ground and activate the physical body.

Kalimbas & Sansulas by Hokema — Melodic Range

Hokema Kalimbas are handcrafted in Germany with American cherry wood and metal tines tuned to G-Major. The G-Major Collection offers the widest kalimba selection of any collection:

• B5 Kalimba — A compact "pocket kalimba" with high-pitched tones that twinkle over the deeper instruments. Goes anywhere.
• B9 Kalimba — A slightly larger, 9-note kalimba with a quiet, round, and soft voice.
• B11 "Melody" Kalimba — Plays the full G-Major scale, ideal for musicians who want to play melodies.
• B15 "Keyboard" Kalimba — A 15-note scale with thicker tines producing satisfying, soothing lower notes.
• Sansula (B9) — B9 tines on a drum head for greater volume and a "Wah-Wah" effect. Available in Sansula Renaissance (synthetic head) or Sansula Deluxe (goat skin).
• Melody Sansula (B11) — The larger Sansula on which you can play the full G-Major scale. Best for musicians; for intuitive play, the B9 Sansula is recommended.

Koshi & Zaphir Chimes — Warm Shimmer

The Koshi G-Major chime, made in France, was the original inspiration for the Intuitive Soundscapes Collections concept. A beloved sound bath essential, Koshi chimes can be held in hand, hung from a stand, or left outdoors for the wind to play.

The Zaphir Red is Koshi's close cousin — also made in France, slightly thinner and taller with a bright red marble-like tube design.

Koshi vs. Zaphir — what's the difference? Both use a dangling bead that taps metal dowels guided by a wooden sail. The Koshi is thicker and shorter with a minimalist bamboo design; the Zaphir is thinner and taller with a colorful decorative tube. Playing one in each hand creates a stereo effect — slightly different tones in each ear.

Zenko Drums by Metal Sounds — Limited Stock

The Zenko Drum is a metal tongue drum from Metal Sounds (France). Important: Metal Sounds has ceased production and our remaining Zenko inventory is limited. If you've been considering one, now is the time — once they're gone, they won't be restocked.

Kigonki Monaural Tongue-Gong — New Addition to All Collections

We're excited to introduce the Kigonki to all Intuitive Soundscapes Collections. Unlike standard tongue drums, the Kigonki features:

• Eight tuned tongues on the face forming a melodic scale
• Eight matching resonating tongues on the back that vibrate in response, creating a rich undulating sustain
• A deep, immersive monaural beat effect — two slightly different frequencies combine physically in the air before reaching your ears, producing a hypnotic tremolo pulse (often called "binaural beats," this is technically a monaural beat)
