        You can make a bass drum very resonant, but most drummers keep a kit bass fairly staccato. Especially with a double bass. Otherwise you’re going to sound like you’re doing a roll on a timpani.

          Sitar and hurdy-gurdy both use drones to get this quality.

                  I've usually seen "double bass" used to refer to the string instrument, also called the contrabass, upright bass, or just a bass.

                    True. I assumed they meant the drum since electric guitars tend to accompany drum sets with double bass.

                            Low brass will rattle your bones if the musician pushes enough air. It's basically the sound of reality ripping in half.

                            ...we need some symphonic metal that highlights full-power low brass - like it's literally the most metal sound an instrument can make. I mean, guitars are great and all, but BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!

                                    I mean, it's really a matter of the quality of the instrument, and even moreso, of the talent and ability of the person playing it - that will make much more of a difference than the kind of instrument (set aside certain instruments like the triangle).

                                      Glasses filled with water you rub the rims of. Literally make sound through resonance.

                                      Also just trying to hum/sing at the same pitch of an instrument or another person singing/humming will produce this effect. That's how I know I'm singing in the right key; you'll feel the resonant harmonics in your whole body. And it feels awesome! 😃

                                          This is the answer. The entire cathedral is part of the instrument!
