I would love help for a Native American Flute

Since I was little I have always wanted a Native American flute. When I was little my mom and dad got me a little wooden one and I was really good with it. But now I want a really nice one. But I don’t know what website makes the best ones I can get. I would really prefer one a Native makes themselves. And a lot of them are about a thousand dollars. And I’d even spent that if I know it’s actually good. Could someone point to a good manufacturer

I need your help!

Could you please provide your insight regarding my YouTube channel?

What do you think I should change to increase views and subscribers?

Please take a look at the videos and tell me, in your opinion, what might be the reason YouTube isn't recommending my videos to new viewers. Is it the titles? Is it the thumbnails? Is it the content itself?

I welcome any well-intentioned suggestions for improvement.

Thank you in advance.

What was that 90s compilation album something like Songs of the Spirit?

I’m always looking for this album I had on CD in the 90s. I’m guessing it came from BMG. I believe the title was Songs of the Spirit but I’ve never been able to find it under that name. It had a pinkish cover with I believe one of those Native American style crosses. I believe first song started (phonetic) O Wa Gi Ne, O Wa Gi Ne… It was a compilation album. I loved that album and would like to find it again. Any help appreciated. Thanks!

Has anyone listened the artist Blackbraid?

I have recently found his music online, I've seen a few different native metal bands like "Ndaaz" from Denver, Colorado. I also saw "When Darkness falls" at stage 49 at Gathering of Nations back in 2011. I have seen and met "Indigenous" three times during the late 90's early 2000's. I pretty much grew up listening to Indigenous, Without Reservation, Julian B, The Atoll, and John Trudell, Robbie Robertson. I even got to see and meet a Tribe Called Red in Denver, and in Albuquerque NM.

I'm just curious what other natives think about his music and image. Indigenous rock/metal, blues, jazz, electronic music, and hip-hop is nothing new. I think non-natives are just hyped up about this band because they play a somewhat underground genre of metal Black Metal, which had it's origins in norway. I think his music is ok but not too different. There is some cedar flute in a few of his acoustic guitar tracks. I kinda think it be more interesting if the cedar flute played along side the metal music. Or there was drum group or handrums in the music too.

Song : Handprints of Our People

https://youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_kOtYOBQhHTAtiPtEcJzQgZtVdsVeZCMPc

My short description: Instrumental music of the artists on flute and acoustic guitar with very occasional reverb. No percussion or vocals.

Description from the album itself: Etched in the Native traditions of Mother Earth, the music of Aaron White (Navajo/Ute) and Anthony Wakeman (Pottawatomi/Lakota) call to the heart and soul of all life. Like a cascade of water trickling through canyons mixed with winds swirling up from the prairies, the sounds of acoustic guitar and cedar flute summon inner calm and quiet strength. Native American Music Award Winner.

Ninan - Innu Auass (Traditional innu music)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=97-dRuB6a70

Hey guys, this is my Youtube channel that i wanted to share with you. I've been doing videos of my fellow natives from Québec,Canada playing music and lots of others things. I'm from Pessamit,Qc and this channel is my work of the last 3 years. I like to call it passing cultures or even preservation of innu culture. This video is from a band called Ninan. They are from a small town up north called Schefferville (innus named the town Matimekosh) and this is their most popular song called Innu Auass (Innu Children) hope you enjoy.

(Sorry if there is any mistakes, english is my 3rd language!)

Subscribe if you want to there's a lot of new music videos coming this summer
