this first flute sounds really great actually. the tuning is practically spot on and with two notes sounds really great. great job to the guy who made that.
3:39 When you match the frequency of the drone and it creates that lower differential beat frequency is one of my favorite things about sounds. The wobble, or oscillation of the sound back and fowards at the difference between the two almost same notes. The farther away the difference, the faster the beat frequency or wobble effect you hear.
You might enjoy Chinese Dizi Flute Use next to cheapest Amazon version or above, it will be far nicer and not someone's return. They have an additional hole you glue a thin membrane over with gelatin, tape over the hole for a plain flute. From Wikipedia: "... This application process, in which fine wrinkles are created in the centre of the dimo to create a penetrating buzzy timbre, is an art form in itself. ..."
Interesting tidbit... The song "Concerning Hobbits" was inspired by a traditional English folksong written in 1915 by Franklin L. Sheppard. The name of the original tune is "Terra Beata" and was itself based on Brahms' "Variations on a Theme." Terra Beata was first published in the Presbyterian School Hymnal "Alleluia" and was written as a tune to be set to Maltbie Babcocks 1901 poem titled "This is My Father's World."
This is ragebait right? It's from the Lord of the Rings Trilogy ("The fellowship of the rings" to be exact). Like the Hobbit movies if you must, but there is no comparison between the two trilogies 😅
Fun fact: though trains are not in a traditional musical key, enthusiasts have found that the horns often contain a G. The other notes are there to create dissonance to grab the attention of individuals within earshot
UA-cam literally never shows me anything like this, but I’m so glad it did today. I’m an engineer, science, etc. nerd, but now maybe I’m a music one too? Lol.

as far as I know on a bagpipe you don't play by blowing into the tube. that's just to keep the bag inflated. you play by squeezing the bag with your arm.... I think
That black flute reminds me of my late grandfather's military fife. He was a keen musician, he played, in addition to the fife, the violin, the trumpet, the flute and piano. He served as a miltary bandsman during WWI (stretcher bearer), but was a professional gardener.
These are cool. I love drone flutes. I even made one myself once, sorta. None musicians think you're playing some ancient, unknown, esoteric, mystical thing. And they're reasonably priced. I'm getting one.
Those are so fun, might have to dust off the 3D printer to check them out! I'm impressed you could just pick them up and play them so well! I know it won't sound that good when I try them myself 😂
Musical unicorn horn, how novel. You should totally pick up a "Bawu", I promise you won't regret it. It comes in vertical and transverse forms. (reeded flute) Just for the name alone its worth it!
I just watched the extended cuts of both trilogies last month with some friends over the course of a few weekends. Kinda already ready to watch them all again
Does this count as an Ocarina? Either way you should make a video on Ocarinas. I play the sweet potato and i love the instrument. P.S. dont get an amazon ocarina EXEPT for the “Night by Noble” which I recommend strongly. If you really want a ceramic ocarina though, then go to STL Ocarinas.
When I say that the telescoping flute seems like more of a toy, please understand that I’m not diminishing how cool it is or how much work went into designing it. Speaking as someone with several years of printing experience, telescoping prints tend to be fragile, and getting them to open the same way every time is basically impossible. So, I wouldn’t expect it to return to a consistent tuning each time it’s opened, and it’s a little more likely to break each time it’s opened and you fiddle with it to get it right.
The drone flute makes you look like you're playing your own incredibly whimsical twirly moustache. It's amazing.
🤣 love this
ok cool, thats what i thought

Agreed!
Thanks 😚🥳
"really bad at finding these holes, I need to practice"
Me too man, me too.
That’s wild
But very relatable

I noticed this while singing a note into a harmonica, very cooll
He was playing Concerning Hobits from the hobit movies
Have I mentioned how good those movies are? 😂
@@MadMusicBand Maybe a couple times

Wasn't it called "the shire"?

I love the new ways people are making instruments!
It plays only one note.

I live near some tracks. I’ll have to check that out.
I like how Samweis plays the flute here.

People saying : “let’s see how it sounds” really cracks me up….😂
I see what you did there
it's almost as if "see" has several related, but different meanings
Let's hear how it looks

“Right here in my pocket”. Love the LOTR references.
I started with one and just figured I might as well go all in 😂, love lotr

No hurdy-gurdy mention for droning instruments. :(
...or sitar...
The old flute was a penny whistle. My dad played it, lots of folk music.
My one true desire is a pocket hurdy gurdy. Anyone care to take up that challenge?
ooo thank you YT recommended! Im obsessed with 3d printing and a music minor so this is perfect and your vibe is awsome!!!!
Interesting instruments, very nice bit of 3d printing too. 👍
Agreed! I really want a 3d printer now 😂
I’m also a band director and instrument collector. I’m glad I discovered your channel today!
never thought that Dexter Morgan would show me his "strange collection"
love a drone flute, my grandmother had one, she taught me how to play it when i was a kid about 40 years back

loving that LOTR tune heard when you first tried the finger holes too XD
Please keep making videos! These are great!
Thanks! 😊
Great use of 3D printing if you ask me!
6:24 there will never be another movie trilogy as good as the Lord of the rings. Extended edition is film perfection.
💯💯💯
first time I've ever watched one of your videos. Good stuff for sure thank you.
That black flute is actually called a fife and its an 18th century military instrument
i will forever hear this song as "theyre taking the hobbits to isengard" instead of "concerning hobbits"
That’s such a cool instrument people are so creative these days. Love you vids❤
I really want an electronic Kazoo that uses voices from an 80s Casio keyboard, preferably with an 8 track built in recording/mixing tool.
Relatable.
Doing the scale with the drone note reminds me a bit of trying to make tunes with my landline's DTMF keypad in the 1990s.
Ha, that's awesome
Awesome. That flip flute is cool.

its off lord of the rings when frodo goes on his first adventure
That song concerning hobbits has the the same first 6 notes or so as ‘This is My Father’s World’
Imagine getting in a fight and then whipping this thing out start playing it and dancing a jig.
I feel it in my fingers, I feel it in my toes!
3:45 the first four notes of "Concerning Hobbits (Shire Theme)" from Lord of the Rings. 👍
I like how he says ACROSS with a ‘t’ at the end 😂 Across’t … great video!
It sounds so weird to me, but a lot of people apparently say it that way 😳
@ I know a lot of Utah people say it like that. Didn’t know it was a country wide thing
@@Gtfompb seems to spreading in the US?
so its pretty much a futuristic version of the flute from "the dark crystal?"
8:13 has to be the best sound I’ve ever heard coming from the bagpipes
Creative people are cool. It looks a flute made from a unicorn horn
🦄
Sounds like a shaman flute! Well engineered, great design!
Is there a bo-staff flute that is played by spinning it like Donatello?
Was “Old Flute” just a Tin Whistle…? Lol
Also, I could see that gourd drone flute being used in a Cosmo Sheldrake song. 😝
5:56 thats what she said
Love the Monty Python reference!!
My wife got me those as a gift when we were dating, still rocking those coconuts.
The instrument player ❌️
The instrument collector ✅️
2:15 "it's levi-OH-sa, not levi-o-sahhh"
Thank you. 😂
thank you
Wait it actually sounds rlly good. Gotta make music with the instrument!
3d flute has a nice carnival merry go round sound
Entertained AF. I like seeing odd instruments. Thanks for sharing.
Those are so fun, might have to dust off the 3D printer to check them out!
I'm impressed you could just pick them up and play them so well! I know it won't sound that good when I try them myself 😂
Musical unicorn horn, how novel.
You should totally pick up a "Bawu", I promise you won't regret it. It comes in vertical and transverse forms. (reeded flute) Just for the name alone its worth it!
@@starwolven I just started a weird instrument list, and now Bawu is on it lol. I'll check it out!
I literally have the first 2 fifes you showed. 😂
I have no idea how how you poped in to my feed .. subscribed..this is awesome
thanks! :)
You could use tonguing, like you do on a harmonica
That thought never even crossed my mind, but yea probably 😂
I love the shire theme
Funny, a few friends and me just started the trilogie again on Sunday. Never gets old.
Truth
I just watched the extended cuts of both trilogies last month with some friends over the course of a few weekends. Kinda already ready to watch them all again
Beautiful hulusi, sadly mine broke...
yea, they're quite touchy. Mine acts up every so often and the drone will just refuse to play.
Looks like a magical doodad !
i just kinda came here randomly and I'm barely in and I'm laughing
Love the 99 red balloons.
One of the songs I seem to be able to play on every instrument lol
@ Same here. I loved it when it first came out, and still do. Play it lots on my midi accordion, ewi, tin whistle and synths.
You can vent the firsthole to get the octave on one without the overblow
I'll give that a shot! :)
Best thing about the movies : we finally learned the tunes to all the songs in the books.

P.S. dont get an amazon ocarina EXEPT for the “Night by Noble” which I recommend strongly. If you really want a ceramic ocarina though, then go to STL Ocarinas.
afaik ocarinas are enclosed, which these aren't, so I don't think they count.
I second the desire about a video on Ocarinas though :D
I also wondered if it counted as an ocarina. A whole video on ocarinas would be super!
I play the bassoon IRL, and I find this awesome.
can't wait to say that I was in the first 5 k and was here before you were famous. Love ur videos and keep up the good work.
@@nish2003 thanks! 🙏
"its leviosaa" is a call and response reference to the movies. She was just playing along and it wooshed you :p
at 3:43 Did he start playing the start to the Hobbit lol
It's kind of the bagpipe of flutes with the drone up top.
Nevermind, he got to that exact comparison later...
Great minds ;)
Both very cool, but the sword flute is pretty much ultimate.
“I play the fantasy ice king’s introduction instrument”
Have you ever played an ocarina? Cause the latter one a bit kinda vaguely somewhat a little bit (lol) resembles an ocarina in the form factor
The first one was cool 😎
3:44 LOTR?
I ❤ sexy pitches.
#HulusiNation
Can you play the oja flute? I have one, and can't do anything with it. It's wooden, looks cool, from Amazon.

I found the background music a bit overstimulating, especially while playing music on the instruments. Still very cool inventions.
1:16
immediately plays Bleed
The guy who makes these is basically Nandor the Relentless, except he makes flutes.
Subscribed! 😸
This video helped me realize God is the eternal drone note and I am it’s complimentary chaos.
I’m going to 3-D print a concert grand piano. The felts and strings might be a problem.
I can tell you like the lord of the rings, you even look like an overgrown hobbit
8:30 Gave me Nobuo Uematsu Final Fantasy vibes n I loved it.
Love his compositions :)
where's the link to that guys website? I want to download and print something.
Links in the description! :)
@@MadMusicBand thanks
Gahh I wish he had the unicorn file for sale would love to give it a go!
awesome
you look like Dexter from Dexter
you need to try a slide whistle
lol, I could probably make a 30 minute video rocking a slide whistle.
You were on the office us cast right?
You play saxofon too
If you are into weird instruments why not try the hungarian tilinkó? Its basically a flute with no holes yet you still can play tunes on it
@@botondalmasi-stolcz6478 I'll check them out!
I really want one.
They're really cool!
I like that jacket. Can I ask what brand that is?
The lord of the rings was beautiful
"so without further ado...."
2:25 seconds of ado later:
Instrument 1: What happens if you blow through one of the side holes?
Now. What about the telescopic violin?
