My favorite thing about lyres and the kalimba is that they're tuned/arranged in such a way that you can basically pick any pattern of strings or tabs to strum in some sort of rhythm and it sounds actually good like you know what you're doing. Ultimate instruments for faking music. I'm vibing out right now with 0 effort.

#yes you actually play them with specific intent obviously #but the thing is you dont HAVE to #if i try to play random keys on a piano or random string on a guitar lol. lmao. it sounds like nothing #sitting here with my kalimba picking 3 adjacent tabs to strum on my right hand. left hand does whatever it wants #boom. its a mindless pretty little tune
