World's largest flutes? Designed for the Original Motion Picture Score of The Whale

[@equaleyez]

Please someone make a 10 hour loop of this! We need this.

[@1fujara]

Haha really? That migh be interesting actually, I was thinking of making an hour long soundbed to relax on for youtube

[@premapoojitanananda7947]

Yes 😊

[@ApunkDaydreamLamunanOi]

@@1fujara Some sound of flowing water on the background would be great.

[@RubenBranco]

Do it PLEASE!!! How about with some DidGirido vibes? 😉

[@jonah4739]

@@1fujara that would be awesome

[@rasmusn.e.m1064]

It's amazing that a flute can trigger that instinctual "Hold up, something big is on its way, better stay still." response. I guess them being overtone flutes also helps because the timbre stays pretty consistent throughout the notes meaning that they sound like two individual creatures. -to me at least. Anyway, this was awesome!

[@1fujara]

Hah I get what you mean I think. Musically these are limited so the richness and music is in soundmodulations and silence.. :))

[@pikasnipe1]

Dude this is an intense sound; would love to see how they were assembled and built!

[@staticcorvette5998]

Absolutely insane! That sound speaks to something primal

[@therhythmchaser]

That was awesome! I can't wait to hear further recordings from these.

[@1fujara]

Thanks, nex video is more musical and playfull, this one is more a drone bed, like I used for the soundtrack

[@hupelien]

Just listening on my phone, just the idea of being in the same room as these gives me the shivers!

[@TheBigBus111]

I would love to hear them in the soundtrack for the next Metroid Prime. They have such a dark and mysterious alien world feel, it would fit right into the worlds that we can find in those games. They're amazing!

[@gnarzikans]

cosmically beautiful, as always. thank you for sharing your creations!

[@1fujara]

My pleasure!

Some SERIOUS deep air! Been eagerly awaiting seeing these beasts since you first revealed your WHALE wailing! SO great Winne!! More massive than one could ever imagine--well, except for YOU, ha! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Thanks!

[@enildemday5294]

Amazing... these harmonic octobass flutes are amazing.

[@mayxiong7796]

It is absolutely incredible to see and hear where these sounds come from and then to connect it to the film itself - you see so much of Brendan Fraser's character between each sound. It embodies so much of the theme of the "sea". Beautifully crafted.

[@runs_through_the_forest]

very cool deep sound!!!

[@1fujara]

Thanks! Still need to make some other versions, I think I can get the sound better still...

[@nikoladze]

This is so amazing! There needs to be an album with these!

[@КоржАлександр-й8д]

Wonderful

[@smcdonaugh6346]

Excellent. Must be something else to hear/feel them live.

[@GiriGagan]

I wanna hear them without any amplification and effects, how do they really sound!?

[@smcdonaugh6346]

@@GiriGagan I think given the nature/size of the flutes, the richness and harmonics must be pretty special.

[@1fujara]

this is the real natural sound in the space, no effects are added

[@GiriGagan]

@@1fujara that’s amazing!

[@heavenbird9186]

Wow it’s sounds so beautiful

This has to be one of the most incredible sounding instruments I've ever heard. I thought I could get some otherworldly sounds out of my shakuhachis but this is on a whole new level

[@dogdog2371]

Wonderful work here, as ever, Winne. Bravo!

[@MrGREYMATTERS]

Masterful build, MASTERFULLY played!!! 😃

[@simonseverinsson1203]

Absolutly stunning! The Attack is so immerse and still, it is so mellow. Love the pairing with the other ones overtone series. makes interesting harmonic between them.

[@1fujara]

Thanks! In The second video we recorded I play one of these big ones with a smaller one in a different interval, musically this is more uplifting and versatile. But these are great for droning

[@MarcoZarco]

[@1fujara]

Thanks Max! Yes they are impressive but my prototypes I used for the soundtrack were better I think, stronger sound but less controll. These have better controll but less sound...so still not 100% happ and quite a challenge to play hahah, but will see where to go from here!

[@timapple6586]

Another brilliant flute-maker named Alcvin makes huge bamboo overtone flutes ('tenkan') with no fipple or mouthpiece. I wouldn't have thought it possible.

[@1fujara]

We are working on that!

[@alexliederbach8047]

This is amazing! I just made my first flute ever, an overtone flute made of bamboo. Feeling very inspired by this and I want to experiment with making more. Are there any certain measurement ratios I should know for how to make the sound hole and where to place it depending on the size of the flute?

[@КоржАлександр-й8д]

The worlds coolest flute!!!

[@1fujara]

Glad you like it.

[@richardwaring8613]

Suggests a way of making normal overtone flutes if you do not have a lathe or a suitable boring implement for cutting and smoothing the inside bore. The 'bread and butter' making of an instrument using discs makes it accessible to most people.

[@wunderbaer58]

amazing and miraculous sounds....where can i get one?

[@1fujara]

Thanks, these are not for sale but Others are available trough my website

[@newq]

When I hear this, I imagine huge dinosaurs singing to each other in a primordial forest on an ancient night.

[@tomaya2]

impressive sounds !

[@1fujara]

Thanks! Working on the next version already!

[@Sebasheck]

Can I use these amazing sounds in my work? Would be sick for a Dnb track.

If you want to use them for your work please contact for the conditions.

[@unnaturalformations2205]

Wow

[@spookylean]

What kind of fipple are these? I would love to try and make my own version. Stunning work.

[@1fujara]

I developped a floatig fipple for these, a design made from 2 types wood, starting from the standard fipple design.

[@suzibikerbabe8073]

Science fiction ambience is all I can hear from these they're so cool

[@project-unifiedfreepeoples]

Sounds like a 20 ft pvc schedule 40, 8 to 12 in diameter pipe when blown into.

[@bontrom8]

What made you choose a whole step? I mean all of tonal music relies on it for the dominant tonic resolution, but what other factors came in to play? Fantastic sounds!!! I love messing around with odd instrument design.

Just beautiful Winne. Can you actually play and hear the fundamental or are we only able to hear overtones?

[@1fujara]

Thanks! The big ones plays the fundamental really silently, the smaller one starts at second octave I think, would have to check.

These sound absolutely awesome! I made myself an overtone flute recently from a spare Didgeridoo I had. Have you used large plastic pipes and then made them look nicer by making loads of plywood rings that slide over the tube? Just a guess from what I can see 😊

[@1fujara]

Not going to tell you all my secrets hahah ;)

[@SONGSTICKS]

@@1fujara As much as I’d love to have a go at making one, I don’t think my wife could take any more instruments crammed into our little two bed bungalow 😊 having said that I’m part way through making an electric calabash & Udu drum combined. oops 😂

[@organist1982]

These are AMAZING, but can they play lower than the 3rd harmonic audibly? I was SO eager to hear their fundamental, as I can tell that D1 is the fundamental of the shorter one and C1 is the fundamental of the longer one (16' C), yet you didn't seem to demonstrate anything lower than the 3rd harmonic of either one.
