#shitty flute

[genericdegraded]

currently in the f1 off season, so ive been thinking about that trend?? of "tell me two thing you didn't know were made by the same person" that was going arround. and it got me thinking of my favorite f1 journalist (tho he's said multiple times he doesn't consider himself one). his name's Víctor Abad and hes from valencia (spain). he's like a 24yo or smth and has a lot of objectively right takes on f1 stuff, in a great ethical and professional way (e.g. he doesn't talk about stuff if it's just a rumor, he wont do it just for the views). i mean, he's great, has a lot of objectivity bc above all else, he really does love the sport, (i.e. although hes a massive fan of Alonso it doesn't interfere with him giving his impartial opinions) (sadly—or thankfully—he only speaks in spanish—and occasionally valencian—and has said he really doesn't want to subtitle/translate his stuff to english bc he doesn't need the attention of the english speaking part of the f1 fandom [he has *opinions* about masi and the 2021 championship british fans might disagree with, specially in twitter, we all know twitter is nasty] so if you don't speak spanish you are missing good f1 content, he's a delight) he has an special in DAZN spain (which i have been unable to watch bc im in latam) and a twitch channel where he mostly talks about f1 but occasionally—more often than not—veers (derails is more accurate) to eurovision. (just been thinking about it now that we are off season bc i tend to take him for granted and i miss him and his content now that we are on the winter break)

soo anyway. if you are in the f1 fandom and have listened/used the shitty flute version of the f1 theme and enjoy it. just know that it was him that made it. it's up on his second yt channel, efedos.

#f1 #the f1 shitty flute theme going viral was never his intention #he's said that his credibility as a serious source of info was compromised (he said it not seriously) #i think it haunts him #brian tyler (the composer of the f1 theme) said ironically that it was a 5/5 and was going to use it as a ringtone #f1 off season #f1 lore #shitty flute #f1 theme #formula 1 theme #formula 1 #shitty flute f1 theme #degraded txt

I had a really similar experience actually. I started playing flute in middle school, but could never play in tune. I was always a little flat, even with the headjoint pushed in all the way. And my tone was noticeably breathy, very airy in a bad way no matter what I did.

It was frustrating. And embarrassing. Every time the concert band teacher stopped us and said "one of the flutes is out of tune" it was nearly always me.

Tl;dr -- 90% of my issues were the flute and I have to relearn some things now from playing wrong for years.

Fast forward to grown-up me. I decide to stay playing my old flute again, and yep, still flat! So definitely a me issue, right?

Well, I took the flute in to a local shop and asked for a basic cleaning and to see if it needed new pads.

Apparently it's just been broken this whole time. In some subtle way I can't explain, but the tech said it would cause most of the issues I had been having.

And it would have cost cost $450 to repair.

I went in to pick it up without repairing it (because this flute sells for $50 on ebay). And they happened to offer me a lightly used student flute for $400. This may sound like a scam, like why would they quote a slightly higher number to repair mine than to buy the used flute? A tactic by Big Flute to sell more Flute.

Anyway, they let me try the flute, of course. And oh my god. I'm not an expert, but I could instantly tell there was a huge difference.

Apparently I don't actually have a breathy tone and it's not me making everything a quarter tone flat. And notes come out effortlessly, I don't have to strain to get any sort of noise.

So I bought the flute.

I am relearning my embouchure, because I spent years trying to make my tone less breathy and my pitch less flat. Those adjustments do not sound good on a normal flute. I get to relax my embouchure and sound 10x better. I can play in all registers and not worry that something will be suddenly off pitch.

I just thought I was a bad instrumentalist...

#mirith #idk i saw this and just related so strongly #I'm so glad i figured it out eventually #I've been thinking this whole time i am a shitty flute player #nah #i mean probably still #but like #so many of my issues were due to equipment #ugh #i don't know why no one said #hey if your flute is always flat #maybe something's wrong with the flute #idk

MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS AS WEAPONS

Flute:

- hit someone with it

- play high notes for psychic dmg

- it has sharp edges???

- take it apart and throw it

- stab

- do you guys know who Wei Wuxian is? yeah

Drumsticks:

- hit someone like a drum

- stab

- down someone's throat:))

- use it like an arrow, but you need some kind of bow for that

- sharpen it and STAB again

#round 1 #yes i had to use a wwx picture #you know how hard it was to find a good picture of him from the anime #i dint wanna use fanart cause like obviously #wait #i have my own fanart #eh its not very good tho i should make new one #AND YES THERE ArE A BUNCH OF PICTURES FROM CQL WHERE HE HAS THE FLUTE BUT I DONT LIKE CQL #i had to look at my stash of downloaded mdzs episodes and find a picture myself #this isnt even his flute its the shitty one that gave evryone psychic damage #but the real one is in this real super dark scene where you can barely see anything and that makes for a shit picture

Ten years ago I didn't share my ex's obsession with Summoning but, listening to them again, I think I'm starting to understand

#music #metal #black metal #summoning #listening to the Old Morning Dawn album again #and i understand the kind of eerie floaty atmosphere and how it accompanies the theme #there's the flutes and epic drums and it's like i'm sitting on a hill in middle earth rn #i think in some way i didn't get it before because you need (or I did at least) a hint of nostalgia for it #it very much feels like times long passed #and at the time it didn't speak to me as a fresh listener #now listening to it i feel the nostalgia from listening to those albums on the turntable in our shitty student flat #it echoes there #the songs have a bittersweet aftertaste. truly like lotr - glory is behind but beauty can still be found in the aftermath

Fang has money now and decided to spend some money so i was looking at the shopping list trying to find anything an impulsive wolf boy who now has 360 gold would like to buy 

Ball Bearings. Disguise Kit. Mirror. 

and FLUTE

Fang laid eyes on a flute and impulsively decided he wants to learn how to play one. 0 musical experience, 0 musical instruction. he’s just gonna take this flute & try to play it. & tbh he’s valid for it

#speculation nation #listen it was just 2 gold it's worth making a dumb purchase of smth he'll probably be shitty at #he loves shiny things he loves cool things that catch his attention #he laid eyes on that flute and his lil pea brain was just like 'I Like Music. I Like Flutes. I Want It.' #hes playing catch up with Hobbies. learning how to cook (he's bad at it). learning how to read (he's also bad at that). #he's living his life gratefully being bad at things bc he's got the chance to try things out for himself #yes he's bad at his hobbies! no he doesnt care! bc he loves Doing Things & being bad at it isn't the point #the point is Experiencing Life. and God Damn he's decided he's going to Experience Life by making Noise #he's had a bell this whole time lmao and now. he has a flute. Good For Him. #fang
