air attack
I'm sure this is a basic knowledge question, but as a fairly new Shakuhachi head joint user I can't seem to find the name for the hissing air attack that preceeds the note sounding. Name or term is....?
Thanks so much

Are you thinking of muraiki?
Good discussion on it here: http://shakuhachiforum.com/viewtopic.php?id=31

Wait a few seconds, make sure you're seated, it's worth the wait: http://www.kotodama.net/shakuhachi/reibo1.mp3
