In message 111461, I started a thread on throat singing, noting that the Altaic Wiki (http://altaic-wiki.wikispaces.com/Throat+Singing) has an article on it and that the OED's definition seems incomplete.

Today, I found a video of rekuhkara, an Ainu game called "throat singing" at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=maaJiJq7Gow that expands the definition a bit more.
