		In Part 5 of Karen Lederer's series on the Phonetics of Beatboxing, she introduces the experimental comparison of vocally and electronically produced sounds.
		The degree of accuracy with which drum machine sounds are replicated by beatboxed sounds depends on the properties of the original sound, however all imitations are easily identifiable as their electronic counterpart and they all achieve a balance between speech and non-speech that allows them to be perceived as either or both by the listener.

	Portland Mercury - Pullout - Sex in Review - the fifth element (Site not responding. Last check: )
		The beatboxer's highest achievement is largely thought of as the "man who is as strong as the machine"--a modern, artistic John Henry whose mouth, tongue, and throat can make as tight a beat as the turntables can.
		Beatboxing has a wonderfully raw, human texture, one that Saul Williams used so transcendently in the 1998 singe "Twice the First Time." In this song, beatboxing shows its unique power that, when married to Williams' vocal art as an MC, makes hiphop fleshier and more compelling than what cold drum snaps could offer.
		When beatboxing reinvents itself in this direction, when it harnesses its originality, it might be considered the "fifth element." But until then, it will have to line up with the other unrecognized hiphop elements like fashion, hype marketing, and blunt rolling.

	Is Blake Lewis any good at beatboxing? - By Jonah Weiner - Slate Magazine
		His love of this hip-hop-derived technique, in which you use your mouth to simulate a drum machine, a turntable, a sampler, or any combination of the three, was on display at his very first audition, when he decorated an already florid rendition of Seal's "Crazy" with some rhythmic stammers and feigned turntable scratching.
		Beatboxing has been a part of Lewis' performances more or less every week since, and in an Idol season when gimmicks have often upstaged singing (see Sanjaya Malakar's hairstyles and Antonella Barba's soft-core-porn portfolio), Lewis' gimmick has proved the most enduring, and the most virtuosic.
		For Fresh, beatboxing wasn't merely a way to mimic a drum machine—it was a way to create funkier percussion than a drum machine ever could.

	Slammin Ð A Capella Singing, Body Music, Beatboxing
		Fasten your seatbelts boys and girls because San Francisco-based SLAMMIN (an 'all-body band') is about to take you for a ride with their unique blend of rhythm dance, beatbox, and tight, often improvised harmonies.
		Blend and intonation are also by and large superb, quite a feat considering the majority of the recording is not only live but improvised as well.
		The rhythms that drive these tracks, created with a combination of Keith TerryåÕs tap dance/body music and Steve HoganåÕs beatbox (which, by the way, dropped my jaw during the intro to 'The Way You Move'), are amazingly intricate and unlike anything IåÕve ever heard on a contemporary a cappella recording.
