- This Kung Fu Flute was inspired by David Carridine's flute played on the Great Wall of China.
It has the 7th century Shakuhachi scale. Available at:

The early funding gathered from this flute helped us to build a children's home in Nicaragua with kids who were rescued from a garbage dump.
This music is so calming & soothing. I could listen to it all day. It truly does remind me of Kwai Chang Caine.
Not when your wearing headphones lol you probably don’t know I put this bc it was 4 years ago and you probably got a new phone sooo you know hehe
Thinking of Friend Erik as we played one of his flutes at an outdoor wedding Saturday. Thank you for the tribute to David Carradine, who lived a truely exceptional life. Remember him as he lived, not as he passed...
🙏🏆🌟
that was a beautiful song it made me go that 'quiet safe place'.
I bought one of these from your website a few months ago, and finally got decent enough with it to where I could incorporate it with a bass-line I made. I was absolutely astounded with how well you can record with these flutes that you make. I just bought your Irish low D and your pennywhistle in D. I can not wait to create more enchanting songs with your flutes. I will have to save up for the Arabian, for I believe that is my next venture. Thank you for the high quality instruments you create!
Thanks Joe! After 44 year of flutemaking I guess I got it. Thanks for your kind words. A joy to serve you, Erik
Nothing better than connecting to the creator when meditating with and creating enchanting music. Such an amazing feeling its a firework show with the spirit and mind. I resonated with your sax the most. I hope i can learn it by ear and enjoy it like a handpan/ rav drum. The pure improv of that sound would make my soul very happy thanks for making an awesome product im excited for mine to come
I agree, hope you are enjoying your flute. Erik

Your song Clear my soul.
Very lovely and beautiful,.. thank YOU grasshopper for sharing with the Universe ♥
I ordered this flute about 3 weeks ago and it just got in today. I absolutely love it. Ive got a calypso and an Irish flute by erik and they are beautiful as well, but by far this is my favorite flute!!
Absolutely beautiful n relaxing
Love that Oriental Flute, Erik
I bought the carbon fiber Kung Fu flute just learng it has a wonderful sound with time and care I'll eventually get the hang of it
I got one of these about a year ago, and it's beautiful, exactly what I had been searching for. I used to play clarinet and I was wanting a woodwind to play around with. Mine seems a bit flatter than the one you're playing here (or maybe it's just my playing). Quite difficult to hit the higher register also (again maybe just me). I keep it around my living room and everyone that comes to visit spots it almost immediately and has to give it a try. Fun times.
O senhor toca com tanta perfeição que faz parecer fácil tirar essa música maravilhosa de uma flauta de bambu inteiramente artesanal.
Parabéns pela linda arte.

billy vick OMG 10 years ago holy crap lol
HOLY FUDGE ON A STICK! THIS GREAT!
Just got my flute today. It's a real nice flute but wow does it hurt my wrists to play it. I have a few physical disabilities like scoliosis and also missing a thumb muscle in my left hand. Between not being able to rotate my head very far to the left and limited mobility of my thumb I REALLY have to stretch my hands and wrists and have to use a strange but awkward fingering method to get everything to line up. Even then the holes on the flute are so big my fingers have trouble filling them lol. Getting all of the holes fingered is very tough for me(lol). Very nice and good looking flute though. BTW this is my first flute.
You might want to try putting some tape over the back hole until you relax more with the flute. You can get the same high do note by blowing harder. Also use the pads of the fingers to cover the holes , skip the middle finger, and angle the top fingers to best fit the flute and relieve stress. Sorry about the struggle. If you decide to retun it for a smaller flute might be something we can do in the Fluture. Erik
It's illigal to not hear this masterpiece!
I love all your videos and I wish I knew how to make one of these looks hard but it will be a fun challenge
That is some first rate flute playing.
ha dude this the exact music which i was searching it is releaxed and calm

@william666lane That is one long flute! Use the Flutomat Javascript Flute Designer.
sounds beautiful i want one!
Beautiful!
Say, is there a significant difference in sound between the flute played cross and the one played straight?
Have you seen Carridine’s movie “Circle of Iron?”
beautiful.
Beautiful😌🎼🎶🎵
beautiful designe i am truly inspired
@darksideka
To answer your question, yes I would advise this flute for a beginner. I just got my hands on this flute about a month ago and I have had no previous experience playing any type of flute, but I was still able to play it right away. And the scale is melodic, so you get a good sound just by going up and down it one hole at a time.
I love this flute 💖
We are making more! And have some ready now. It is a cool flute. Thanks for mentioning it, Erik
@@ErikTheFlutemakerCom what name this flute
This is so calming…wish I had this music when my 'meltdown' started….
Beautiful!
Finally got a small Chinese flute & actually made notes 😁.
I'm not too bad with martial arts after 45 years (Shoalin and Tàijíquán "mostly" ☯️🙏).
My favourite weapon or form is a simple staff.
Someone actually asked if I am Asian, this I took as a compliment. I'm trying to learn Chinese and Spanish to help my shifu.
I can't wait to walk the beach in my white Tai chi Fu while playing a flute. (that's also a staff,sword & spear). I already get some curious looks especially if I'm resistance training on the bars etc.
Then I can just sit or walk peacefully in my Tai chi Fu " El maestro de blanco" I hear people say 😁👍☯️🙏
Name of the song please ?
Absolutely amazing, sir.
El sonido de la flauta cuando se llega a ese nivel ..no tiene ni partitura ni esta en una orquestta ni nada por el estilo.Es el alma de la persona materializada en música en este caso en armonia con la naturaleza.Simplemente conmobedor y paz interior
Inner peace. ♥
i like it, it is inspiring and beautifull
verry good to hear
kung fu theme (trail of the angels) please, one tutorial. Please! =)
ahhhhhhhhhhh i cant wait til mine comes!!
awesome sir ...
Nice
@skullfaced5555 A bug hole or small crack will affect a flutes playing.
Very lovely. but might I suggest you correct both misspellings of Carradine? just sayin' LOL. I loved that man!
nice good job I love it
GOOD!!!!
hey this sounds amazing , i was wondering as i dont know how to play the flute can you just jam out songs like this or is there a speciel way of doing it ?
@freakazoid5359 Thank you, Do i need at least a basic knowledge or can you learn as you go as they say,
Could a flute like this be special ordered now (2020) ? I noticed it's no longer on your website. What would the approximate price be US dollars if purchase were possible? Amazing work and playing
Hi Duane, unfortunately at this time we are unable to make this Model. But it is our Oriental flute that we still provide. All the best, Erik
Sounds like a flute in a movie.
I like the bamboo version are you still making this flute?
Hi Joshua: Great question!
WHY DID YOU MOVE AWAY FROM BAMBOO KUNG FU FLUTES?
We had to move away from the Kung Flute in bamboo for the following reasons.
1) Folks were not happy if it had a curve.
2) My leather guy left who made the braided strap and put on the Cocobolo.
3) After harvesting some older bamboo, they split all over the world and we had a lot of work to remake and resend internationally at a very high price.
4) we exhausted all our bamboo
5) Most of the time the extra 9 inches of bamboo sacrificed a nice $105 flute
6) People wanted concert tuned ones and very few came out.
7) When they would crack we would have to replace them.
8) Now in Carbon Fiber they are all concert tuned in D, do not crack and are straight.
Flute arrived today (even though the post office did their best to break it!). I'm having a very difficult time getting the correct mouth/lip position to get the proper notes. Are there any online aids available anywhere?
Hi Dan: There are some tutorials in the video at my Oriental page you can review. Also where I answer questions at the bottom of my website that might help. Bottom line, is hold flute near the mouthpiece no fingers on holes yet. Press and roll flute and blow from a soft grin. Look in the mirror to make sure you are not puckering. A hole creates huff and frustrates and soft line creates a good split. Blow across, not into the hole. Hope this helps, Erik
Don't give up the rewards are breath taking. Erik
I've heard some of your other recordings. What instrument is making the background droning sound that backs up the flute?
Hi Michael. On this piece its all the Kung Fu Flute.
“SOULFUL”
Respect~
i made a flute once
actually made couple of flutes
but one of them was my best work
it worked perfectly, at first
but then after few months it stopped working
do you have any explanation why?
if you do, do you know how i could fix it?
please tell me
@MrMinimalSWN He does.
i want one
did you add reverb to your recordings?
Hi. Here are difficult to find. But you could use pvc and it sounds good. and use this program flutomat.com thas the way i made my own flute and sound very nice. The pvc is about 3/4". white schedule 40 interior diameter 2.35 wall thickness .2
I can give some scale if you want

Have you ever worked with metal? I'd love something strong and resonant, as sturdy as any fine sword yet sweet in spirit like water and bells yet so pure it's like a chlid's night sky of stars with a beautiful deep, dark blue-purple lacquer that flashes a brighter shade where it shines
Something to play "The Inner Light" , Princess Mononoke, Si Behg Si Mohr, even Twinkle Twinkle with and makes people come so alive, a sound like stars n.n
one word....Google....
Jordi wild xd
Very nice. Name of the song played?
Actually it was simply an improvisation on the spot. I really had no idea what I was playing. Fun.
