i clicked on this preparing to be incensed and hit it with a dislike, but it's a well done video, and pretty right, to boot. well done sir. love and peace to you.

BONES!

I wish you'd make another video like this about yaelokre who has started to similarly trend on tiktok... or my fyp i suppose. Just like to see your thoughts!

Nice job, Than.

Feckin nerds trying to make a native American whistle 😂😂

Pretty cool stuff! I came here, because I was curious about the bone flutes of my ancestors in the Volosovo culture.

ANCESTRAL POWER!!!

One of these came up on market place and aftwr my very short research journey it ends here haha

your channel is amazing

I was offhandedly curious about bone flutes and clicked on this video only to be hit by "Bones. What are they?" I have to ask: are you quoting a video by Louie Zong? Also, this video rocks ^_^

Cool version! Do you know it as Kingsfold as an Episcopal PK? I think you mentioned your father was a priest in the Myrkur folk album review video (which I really liked!).

Can that electric guitar be a Hagström, by very accident?

I grabbed a random bone grime road kill it’s been there for idk how long but I cut it open and the inner bone was still wet

what was this melody in the beginning?

I don't really think I would classify The Oh Hellos as pop, or even as folk-pop (Faux-lk seems like the better term) because pop has the connotation of following a formula. I've been a fan of the band for a while, and from what I've seen, they like to tell a narrative, they like to mix up the structure of their songs, they like to pull out the poetics and make you think about the thematic elements of the lyrics. They have plenty of instrumental songs in their albums. I also wouldn't really classify their music as Christian music, necessarily, or Solider Poet King as a Christian song. It has both religious and secular influences and messages, especially in context with other songs. It really misses the very powerful points of the song to reduce it down to either "oh, fantasy folk vibe" or "this is a song about Jesus and Christianity." I think you put it well that it is also about overcoming hardship, using that christian imagery. In the context of dear wormwood, it is also about escaping an abusive relationship, which can be set beside an abusinve religious institution as well, given the Oh Hello's general focus on what it means to be a Christian when the church has a long history and current instances of abuse and bigotry. But now I'm rambling. tldr, I love the Oh Hellos, and they deserve a lot more love for their entire discography, not just this one song

Industrial civ is going down. That's a difficult notion to absorb and accept. But the material basis for human civ is finite...

I grew up with these things. Magnus introduced their basic 2-octave chord organ around 1965. I was given one for Christmas. By this time, it had been around long enough that there were many books of music (The Magnus Organ Library) for it, including a Beatles tune book. You could buy them in any store that sold sheet music. These little organs were so cheap ($15 for the entry level model) that a lot of people got them for their kids. But you couldn't play real music on them, they sounded awful. So they developed the special books, one finger right hand melodies and chord buttons for harmony. People also played guitar music on them because the written music was similar, yet called for chords in the harmony that Magnus didn't have (like Gm7 - the little Magnus only had a Gm)! They also made a 3+ key octave version (with 12 chord buttons instead of 6) that was a stand alone model -- it had screw on legs and a knee operated "volume control" (basically a valve to limit the air to the reeds). Sounded exactly the same as the little one. There were also MANY imitators (including Emenee - which tried to look a little like a church organ.) At the time, the sound was considered a joke, and they were considered to be toys. You may notice that the size of the keys is smaller than on a piano or organ, so it wasn't even good for practice. It was also made entirely of plastic and dense foam, including the reeds. SEARS introduced a competitive model that used steel reeds. It sounded better and spoke more quickly, but it too was considered a toy. These instruments lasted for decades in the market and sold well into the 1980's in some places. Then CASIO and YAMAHA introduced electronic keyboards which had full sized keys, several tone banks, and sounded amazing for the time.

Cool organ!

Hi, I am looking to purchase a flute made of a bone, is there a chance that you can make one for me?

Your blm comment absolutely ruined the video

Awesome! I want to make me some 😉

I adore this a lot! Great job

this was such a fun video to watch! absolutley love the vibe and atmosphere and the musical parts you created. just subscribed!

I have a femur, or what I think it a femur. Do I need to chop the ends and boil it to get the inside of the bones off the bone?

This is the best!!! I freaking love this man you are awesome and I’m so going to send this video to my entire family there has to be at least one of them that will collaborate with me on this most amazing endeavor ❤❤❤ thank you for this video 💖💖💖💖

Its a jig.

Like the tune :) Except for the drums :p Keep it up👍

great work. You've got a knack for this sort of thing.

I have now realized how much I need to hear my soul cries out with a flute lol

great video!

the instrumentation and flow of the notes really gives it a very whimsical feeling that sets a nice mood and tone it's like "hey ya" nobody really pays attention to the lyrics and honestly I'm very much anti christian after leaving mormonism, but the tone and vague lyrics can make it easier to detach yourself from the original meaning and just connect with the more pagan roots of it kinda like how Christianity first converting the Irish people had to change and absorb a lot of that pagan mythology to convert the island, a christian twist on a forgotten time

Where you from mister

Has this project continued? Are we going to get a pt 2?

ure so charismatic

If you gays are looking for folk or faux-lk music with a happy upbeat tune and fantasy elements, look no further than Heather Dale’s entire library. She leans heavily into Arthurian legend and has plenty of POV worthy songs. As an added benefit, her songs don’t have the explicitly Christian overtones that people who dress up as faeries on TikTok seem to revile with their entire being. Go give Heather Dale some love

creating a playlist of songs you could realistically play if you were somehow transported to middle earth is so real and relatable

Danka...shine on!... Peace

0:13 what kind of flute is this? it sounds really good

Guy has played a few bone flutes in his day....... Pretty cool though lol

I thought the whole thing about of Jesus

Never mind you stink

My new fav folk music UA-camr

Great video.

I'm 3 years too late. But great video!

My favourite John Barleycorn is actually Vulcan's Hammer's : two men, stereo, raw. It's not really the same version as Traffic, which I don't really like.

very helpful

This may be a bit less on the musical side and more on the cultural, but still: I have listened to the Oh Hellos for years, and I like them alot. They write pretty clever lyrics that question society and their own faith (though the constant faith aspect does bore me a bit), and put it to great music. From my perspective, they adapted parts of the legacy of Folk Music and used it to make something different with it. That is laudable. What annoys me about the whole "ah look at me I'm such a _quirky, cottage-core, hobbit, witchy, pagan, sparkly, Dungeons and Dragons dice collecting, renfair-fetishist Tik Tok user_ -Crowd is how completely baseless and tonedeaf their niche of the internet is. They have no historical or cultural background knowledge of anything they use. They don't adapt parts of something they understand and respect to make something new with it, like the Oh Hellos do, they take and twist and pervert it into the next trend, the next challenge, the next way to brag to the internet. Despite it being done primarily by peope in their bedrooms, it feels so hollow and commercialised. It's a pity, because a lot of those people are genuinely talented, but so entirely uneducated and tone deaf. It's the same thing that pissed me off to no end about the goddamn Wellerman trend. They took a sea song, one of the most boring ones at that, completely ignored any historical context, misnamed it as "Shanty" and made a goddamn bragging contest out of it. To me, it feels like cultural appropriation, but like...of your own culture's past. If I started a trend of putting feathers in my hair, painting my face red and doing an awful impression of Cherokee music, I would be rightly boo'd off the internet because I'm abusing a culture I don't understand for my own gain. But if people appropriate european sailors' music, dress in shitty amazon pirate costumes and make a damned electronic remix out of it, that's a huge trend. It's such a shame because there is such a wealth of beautiful historical music and amazing culture that get's absolutely buried under the spam of the uneducated who think that shitty corsets and horned viking helmets and furry bikinis and singing rousing drinking songs is what "ye olden times" was like.
