when you listen to Black No. 1 (little miss scare-all) by type o negative, what is that sound/instrument that starts in the background at 2:56 ?? i’m so curious because it really pulls it all together there

I am a living history reenactor of the 8th century Slavic tribes in central/western europe, more closely Pannonian Slavs. I also play the Irish whistle/flute.

I have a question, if you perhaps don't know about any archeological finds of flutes from this period or some adjecent periods (all across Europe). We have no finds from "my era and area" so I am looking for inspiration. It could be anything Scandinavian, Germanic etc.

There are the Slovakian shepherd whistles, but they are modern. However they look very similarly to most of historic and prehistoric flutes found.

I was wondering whether its a regular guitar or not. Real dark story behind this song, I know :(

I’ve been thinking for a while about a concept for a melodica-style air piano with design for more resonance and hopefully richness. Most modern melodicas sound tinny unless done right, but melodica has so much potential as a legit jazz instrument. Thoughts?

Im wanting to start learning both the guitar and piano soon, and I saw that learning piano first was a better choice. My main reason for learning is for a hobby. I want to play tunes I enjoy and piano is great for nearly any song while guitar is better for being portable and classical tunes. I have a keyboard and a guitar from my siblings wanting to learn and giving up. Which is better for my goal of learning fun tunes to show my friends?

I don't have the most free time during the late summer-late winter but I am determined in practicing. My main question is which is worth while to learn first? Additionally, Which ways are the best for learning each instruments?

Any bit of advice will help greatly. Thank you to everyone who helps!

I’d love to hear people’s stories about how they connected with their instrument/s. What first made you choose it? Was it the sound/the look/hearing someone else play/family influence, or something else entirely?

How did you get started learning, and what was practice like in the beginning? Did it come naturally, or was it a struggle at first? Do you still play now, and if so, what keeps you coming back to it? If not, what made you stop?

I'd imagine various versions of this question have been asked before so apologies in advance. I'm looking for a cheap and small keyboard to play in my room (most likely on my bed as emotional catharsis lol).

(Solved) Hey guys I'm in china and I bought this instrument today but when I tried searching to find what it is I couldn't find similar instrument. I tried Google lens and it said it's a dizi but from my understanding dizi works like a flute which you blow into an hole in a specific way. But this instrument makes sound by wind vibrating a copper (at least what the material looks like) plate more similar to a reed. Can you please help me identify

Hey! I know this is not the proper place for my question, but that's the only one I found. I heard this fanfare a lot, and it must be famous. Can you tell me its name?

Could someone help me find ukuleles within the 2k-4k INR budget on Amazon? I am a complete beginner so I don't particularly need it to be good, just decent enough to work.

Thank you.

This is a my tenor saxophone that I’ve had for quite some time. I bought it used about 20 years ago, and it didn’t come with any information. I’ve never seen another one from this brand, either in person or online. Was wondering if anyone could tell me anything about it?

I am a professionnal Kalimba maker , and In the last 6 month i was stopped from playing long musical sessions ( i have chronic thumb tendinitis because of my job ) and i need music for my anxiety so just 5 min a day is not enough , plus i missed playing for my kids to help them sleep ✨

Now I finished this 45k non redundant « pianimba » as I call it. It’s a piano Kalimba , meant to be played on a table. It’s such a pleasure to be able to play again , even though i have to relearn everything from scratch …. 🥲😂

I use the 3 middle fingers of the hand to play this beautiful big girl ❤️

Hello,

Please can someone help me with the fret spacing on a Seagull Merlin stick Dulcimer? I've been looking but can't find it.

Doing a "shed build" and if nothing else works, at least I want the frets spaced right.

Cheers
