A lifelong musician, Marius came to the ukulele only in March 2011 and fell head over heels. Ever since he not only writes/arranges his original music to the personality of this humble instrument but also presents covers and/or adaptions with it. In doing so he treats and portraits the ukulele as a serious instrument that despite its obvious limitations is unlimited. Whenever he works with back-up musicians in changing formats it becomes 'Mari's Uke Joinery'. The White Shirt Kanikapila (WSK) series is (was) a set of solo acoustic performances on various models of 'ukuleles.
In 2018 he released the album "a cross-continental ukulele joinery', featuring Singaporean singer Zacquine Miken. zacqandmari.bandcamp.com/releases
@@ishhimikotony well, there is the soprano ukulele size, the concert ukulele size, the tenor ukulele size, the baritone ukulele size and … 🥁 drum roooll … the bass ukulele size 😀
Hey @@KingWilly31 👋🏻 … ein Moin Moin an die Ostsee 🌊 Freut mich, dass dir das Instrumental bzw. der Ausschnitt daraus, gefällt. Notiert habe ich es bisher leider nicht, sorry!
Hello, those strings give an excellent tone, but I have a question. In general, ubasses, especially with rubber strings, sound very quiet when not amplified. How do you think that bass sounds with those strings without an amplifier? I saw a video of a Kala with Aquila spiral strings, and it sounded good next to a guitar, but video edits can be misleading when selling a product. Greetings from Chile!!!! 😁
Well, damn that was different. Loved it. You guys are awesome. Looking for ukulele, inspirations and I play different as well. Love that I caught that clip. Thank you for sharing🤙🏼 The title got me ❤️
Alöhaaa Ric, makes my day you not only found this but made an effort and left this cool comment - oh yeah! It’s always nice when lovers come across a particular production!
well, a pick would indeed be an option here, at least for those 16th notes, maybe not so much for the following melody. The thing is, the ukulele naturally has quite a high pitched voice and i am already an octave above the guitar. I think the notes have enough sparkle ✨ and sit nicely in the mix, wouldn’t you agree?
Hey @@pulti, schön, dass du dich interessierst! Eine Beschreibung ist zwar da, jedoch ist diese kurz und in Englisch 🇺🇸🇬🇧 Ich stelle alle 12 Noten unseres westlichen Tonsystems vor - in 3 verschiedenen und recht interessanten Anordnungen. Lies doch auch mal den ersten Kommentar und meine Antwort darauf. Bringt das für dich Licht in die Sache?
In the circle of fifths every note is a fifth above the previous note. It’s not a series of pairs of notes that are a fifth apart with each pair a scale note apart.
@@johnmalcolm9980 DANKE for your valuable contribution here! You are right - but you might wanna read my description! There i say, the notes are 'differently arranged'! Now go check the notes and see what i did💡Get it? My intention was to show exactly that: the circle ⭕️ is indeed a 'series of a pairs of notes that are a fifth apart with each pair a whole step❗️apart (not a scale note). Now isn’t that an interesting way to see the ⭕️ of 5ths/4ths (well, and the fretboard) in a different light? Only on a grand piano 🎹 w\ its span of 7 1/2 octaves one could, like, really step thru the ⭕️ Then, why would you? Anyhow… you’re welcome 😉
Hey @@colemancat1060, your comment is much obliged. You might wanna give this a listen over a proper set of speakers 🔊 🔊 or even better some 🎧 Also follow this link here to watch the actual video for this Reggae jam. It’s quite fun: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Pwz-P9CcHdg.htmlsi=KhEDq_CDQupAa_-0
@@MariUSukulele yes that one too. We're talking about the same thing right??? Idk 😭. Just to be clear I meant the video thumbnail cover art style where there's a drummer at top and there's the vocal man with the black stripe In his eyes. I was using mobile so your video itself showed as the thumbnail. I opened your comment in my laptop just now and I realize it's the different things 😭 😭
@@MariUSukulele the fuck? Man are you messing with me right now or are you an ai?? Im not asking you to be sarcastic tone 😒. I just really like the old school vibes album of the video format you did. Nvm I'm not gonna visit this channel again. And unsub. No thank you
Hey Du eingebildeter Schnösel: lern X die Guitar richtig zu halten Die Du eh nicht bedienen kannst. Wer bist Du überhaupts? Wahnsinn,ich fasse es nicht. Mir is schlecht. So,und jetzt kannst de loschn.
A lovely memory of your grandfather. He composed a beautiful composition for the organ. Perfect arrangement by Lambert Spix on ukulele. My brother also learned to play the organ at church for many years. Thank you for a wonderful experience that brought back memories. Marius, you have the musical talent of your grandfather. He would be proud of you. 😃Eva
Hi Marius, this is such an amazing video. I was completely moved. Beautiful story, beautiful treatment, beautiful singing and music. Great work.💕Zacq & Mari💞Eva
Das ist so Klasse! Hier stimmt einfach alles. Super schöne Musik, super gespielt, Klasse Film, tolle Kulisse. Das ist sehr emotional und echt. Ich kannte das Original nicht und hätte es auch nicht so gemocht. Ganz anders diese Nummer, die ich mittlerweile schon so oft gehört habe.
Anuschka, es freut mich wirklich sehr, dass dieses Mammut-Projekt solch eine Begeisterung in dir hervorruft. 🌻 Vielen Dank 🌻 dass du dies auch mit (d)einem Kommentar zum Ausdruck bringst und damit den Aufwand würdigst.
Ha, so happy you checked this one out, Eva! It was a collaboration w/ a befriended musician of mine and what you see here are just the parts i contributed. For the full experience you should go and follow the link i put in the description box. Let me know what you think, will you?
Hi Marius, it's great that you have your video edit. I'm glad to know how musically talented you are. By the way, you look great in that suit (jacket). I looked at the link. It is a perfect video recording and editing. All three voices harmonize beautifully with you and the combination of instruments is perfect. Beautiful experience. Thank you very much.🌟Eva
Eine wunderschöne Schwarz-Weiß-Videoaufnahme, sie hat ihren eigenen Charme. Ihr seid beide sehr klug. Perfekt gespielt und gesungen. Ein wunderschönes romantisches Lied, ich habe es zum ersten Mal gehört, es gefällt mir sehr gut.🤩Eva
Marius very beautifully done. A beautiful duet combination. Great singing for this song. Overall, I really like the video. You are very clever and very musically gifted. I listened to the song repeatedly. 🌻Eva
Oh, yes indeed - NamNam, which is Chinese and translates to BlueBlue 💙💙, certainly was a beautiful little creature. Unfortunately these kind of fish (betta splendens) don't have a long life expectancy.
Hi Marius, I came to listen to the NamNam song again, it's very beautiful. He wants to buy NamNam some fish so that they can have a family and make them happy and a decoration in the aquarium for a long time.💙💙Eva
Hallo Marius, dieses wundervolle Stück wurde in der Tschechischen Republik im Radio gespielt. Es ist etwa 3 Wochen her. Ich habe Deine Stimme innerhalb weniger Sekunden sofort erkannt. Es ist ein wunderschönes Lied und Video. Es hat mir wieder Spaß gemacht, zuzusehen und zuzuhören.⛵🔥🌲🛖Eva
Beautiful video, full of positive energy. I enjoyed watching the video and listening to it repeatedly. The melody and vocals are fabulous. You are a handsome couple.💞
Eva, dĕkuji 🫶🏻 so much 🌻 Just for your understanding: the instrument you are seeing here is an electric bass guitar. Then you are hearing👂🏻an ukulele and drums. 😊
Hi Marius, I apologize for the mistake with the bass guitar.😁 I've never seen one like this. You play nice and the singing with the bass guitar is great.😉Eva
