on Chips and Salsa with Native Flute by UChris

Very special one...you are so unique in this site, but for me, sometimes your instrument is a bit strange in this song...

Best, Danke

UChris replied 13th Feb 2014 - 11 years ago

danke, I appreciate your honesty and I agree. The Native American Style flute is not always perfectly tuned, and the pitch of the notes change with the speed of the airstream. Also, as mentioned below, I don't quite have the salsa beat mastered. It's not syncopation or swing, but a pulse all its own. That said, ScottB55's track allowed me to play in E minor pentatonic scale with a movement to the relative major, a combination not always easy to find. Thanks for responding!

on Chips and Salsa with Native Flute by UChris

Nice - I like the groove

UChris replied 13th Feb 2014 - 11 years ago

Thanks, clindsay. The flute part is not quite salsa, though. I stuck to the regular drumbeat in the background as much as I could. I haven't quite mastered the salsa beat, but then, it's a challenge for many. Thanks for your comments!

This was already a pro song, what can I say to this interpretation?

Brilliant, 10/10

Best, Danke

UChris replied 5th Sep 2013 - 11 years ago

Thanks, Danke. A collaboration is only as good as its rhythm line and this one has it! UChris

A beautiful atmospheric song!
The flute really lifts the melody, very nice alltogether.
Enjoyed this a lot.

UChris replied 5th Sep 2013 - 11 years ago

Playing a flute is like singing for those not born with a good voice--thanks, Seriously.

UChris replied 30th Apr 2013 - 11 years ago

Thank you always for your enthusaistic comments!

on Count on the Blues with Flute by UChris

oh yeah,....this one could go back a long way...but the blues is timeless....Kudos to you on the flute lead UChris...its not only imaginative/creative thinking...its a reminder of some of the jazzy blues tupe tunes that were done by some fantastic instrumentalists in times past....well done...I go back a ways myself and I can asure you...you are in good company...great listening over my way this Sunday evening....keep on.....Ed

UChris replied 29th Apr 2013 - 11 years ago

Thank you so much, Tumbleweed. Your words are valued highly. You may know the Native flute is keyed in pentatonic minor, thought it contains a major scale that spans only an octave, so I have to choose tracks thoughtfully. My technique and mix may be wanting, but there's nothing like bringing it all home in the end! Thanks again.

on Neal Visher-Clank by UChris

beauty rhythm for guitar intor which your flute acccompaniment makes it more complete .& yes I'm agree with last comment wich is written about lyrics & vocal too .
also while I was listening to your track I was thinking
if it was mine I'd prefered to try on some ocarina or panpipes lines too (U know how great respect I have for you & just I'm writing some idea to you because how I'd told you before I really enjoy how you play your flutes& such instruments)
any way in same version which I heard to it was well done man like you usually are .
regards
___BehnaM

UChris replied 21st Feb 2013 - 12 years ago

Excellent ideas, behnamzandi! An ocarina or panpipes would be great in this track. I do not play those instruments well enough, but I do have some high Native American style flutes--maybe someday I'll try it. Until then, anyone else can add a topline or vocal. I'd like to hear how it would sound, and I think Neal would too. Thanks for the suggestion!

this is prescient and wonderful - y'know upon reg preslsey's passing - there's dog, there's prog, but there will always be trog - daring, beautiful and human musics

Thanks, MStokes. Praise from you is always appreciated, particularly since it is expressed so poetically.

on Eagle On High Native Flute by UChris

damn, that's wonderful. I'm showing this off to people on twitter, hope ya don't mind.

UChris replied 13th Feb 2013 - 12 years ago

No problem, Neal. Saddles made his track available and I'm sure he would not mind if it got a larger audience. UChris

on Neal Visher-Clank by UChris

yaaay, and the fact that you said you had alot of fun doing this makes me feel funny inside lol.. that's awesome.

You have a special talent I haven't personally seen here on looperman, thank you for sharing.

I see that you didn't play during the 'chorus'-y sections, hmmm, perhaps it's time I add vocals... heh, If I DO, I'll definitely let you know..

and thanks for the kind words.

Neal

UChris replied 13th Feb 2013 - 12 years ago

You're welcome, and thank you in return. I started with a version that ran all the way through, but then I realized the flute covered over your fingering.(The silences are as important as the sounds, blah blah blah.) I think your instincts are correct about adding a vocal to this piece--consider the flute a stand-in for what it would sound like. And yes, I always have fun playing to good tracks!

on Latino Balanco for Saddles by UChris

nice latin &groovy; jazz man, U play flutes how I wished to can play for myself .
regards.

UChris replied 3rd Feb 2013 - 12 years ago

Thank you, behnamzandi. I know you like jazz, so this is a great compliment. Saddles would also appreciate the praise. A good background track is not easy to find for this kind of flute. See also his Eagle On High track with flute for a completely different feeling.

on Journeyman with Flute by UChris

hi man , I know 7 months has passen by from your upload when I'm listening to this track (for the first time) , but I just wanted to say it inspires me & learns me a lot , I've even never seen a American Native flute ( I know it would b funny for u ) & I just love Native american & Zen & Afro flutes . a welldone & melodic Guitar & flute duet .
thnx for upload such a nice sensation & let me hear it.
Regards .

UChris replied 31st Jan 2013 - 12 years ago

Hi, behnamzandi, no problem, I was gone too. Because of your other tracks, I thought "Journeyman" was Latin. Now your are in Iran, I see your music is inspired by the middle east. The Native American style flute can play several middle-east scales such as hitzaz and maquam. I thought "Journeyman" worked well--look at the many downloads! I enjoy playing with your music very much. Thank you for your kind comments.

yaaaaay, I came over to comment here instead of just in a reply to you on my own profile, lol.

Excellent, this tickles me pink man, especially flute. When I re-record it non-sloppily, I'll definitely think of hitting you up hah..

Thanks alot, your inspiration inspires me back !

UChris replied 24th Nov 2012 - 12 years ago

Thanks, Neal. I'm always happy when the originator of a track responds to my playing around with it. I'd be pleased to record a track over the refined version. In this instance, I liked the quasi-Native American feel and the open quality of the drums. It gave plenty of room to roam.

All I can say is Blazing Fire UChris! I am truly humbled. the flutes just add another dimension, takes it up there to the clouds. I thank you for sharing your spirit on this track. Hope for more collabs in the future. Much love and respect

UChris replied 26th Sep 2012 - 12 years ago

Thank you much, Vuduchylde. Isn't it great when we can all come together from all over the world and create something wonderful? Your track was an inspiration!

Thank you so much for your comment! Sometimes these nice little moments get overshadowed and underappreciated. Saddles' track was an inspiration to play along.
