Russian warsong
Hey everyone, not a box player, but thought that this might interest you.
It's a beautiful song about russian soldiers at war. I uploaded the version with subtitles because it didn't exist on youtube yet.

Re: Chris Backhouse Whistles
I know the band nightwish, good band. I know they use whistles, but not which ones on which album. And even if you knew, they put way to much reverb and effects on it to be usefull sadly. The website needs to prioritize a bit, having the prices hidden away like that is bad for business. :) For the r...

Re: Blasphemy of fipple for flute
great advice everyone! helped me a bit further in the possibilities
But I find it weird that there is no more 'official' name for a cheater, and that none have been produced since the 12th of april the 1879 :p
There is no one who makes these in plastic or none poisonous metal?

Re: Blasphemy of fipple for flute

So I need this accessorize.

Re: General care taking of Aluminium whistles
Beeswax is da bomb! Beebomb - heehee. A little goes a long way. Probably too heavy for some uses though. Awesome help, thanks Feadoggie! Had still a lot of beeswax from other projects. Seems to work perfectly if you combine it with a little bit of lipgloss, looks good, smells good, and as an added ...

Re: Bare aluminum MK Pro
Great job on the whistle polishing. Looks great. I used to build Streetfighter motorcycles and I've stripped the anodised coating of many a bike part. It takes a lot of effort, but well worth the effort. Prepping and polishing a flute would be a similar process to the anodised forks on a motorbike....
