Manage episode 425799190 series 2362881
In the world of music, innovation is key to keeping the art form alive and engaging. One such innovator is Greg Pattillo, a name synonymous with the unique blend of beatboxing and flute playing.
In a special 'Revisited' episode of "Talking Flutes," hosted by Jean Paul Wright, listeners are treated to an insightful conversation with Greg, who has over the years taken the world by storm, starting with his viral Super Mario video and over 150 million YouTube views.
The episode takes us back to 2020, a year that, despite its challenges, was filled with remarkable guests and extraordinary music. Greg Pattillo, described by the New York Times as "the best in the world at what he does," shares his journey from being an acting principal flute player in an orchestra to becoming a global sensation with his beatbox flute techniques.
Greg's story is one of perseverance and creativity. After moving to California and struggling to find work, he reinvented his flute playing by incorporating beatboxing, a skill he honed by being around other beatboxers and practicing relentlessly. This innovative approach not only provided him with a unique sound but also a platform to inspire others.
One of the highlights of the episode is Greg's discussion about his tutor book, "Beatbox Flute, Volume 1." This book is a comprehensive guide for flute players of all levels, introducing them to the art and sounds of beatboxing. It includes detailed instructions on how to produce five basic sounds, how to incorporate them into flute playing, and even how to improvise with these sounds. The book is a testament to Greg's dedication to making beatboxing accessible to everyone, from beginners to seasoned professionals.
The conversation also delves into the technical aspects of beatboxing on the flute. Greg explains how he uses different parts of his mouth to create various sounds and how these techniques have evolved over the years. He emphasises the importance of practice and experimentation, encouraging listeners to try beatboxing while walking or even at parties.
Jean Paul Wright and Greg Pattillo's camaraderie is evident throughout the episode, making it not only informative but also entertaining. Their shared history and mutual respect add depth to the conversation, providing listeners with a behind-the-scenes look at the world of flute beatboxing.
For those who missed the original episode or are new to the concept of flute beatboxing, this revisited episode is a must-listen. It offers a fascinating glimpse into the mind of an innovator who is pushing the boundaries of what is possible with a flute. So, sit back, relax, and let Greg Pattillo take you on a journey into the exciting world of beatboxing on the flute.
