Got questions about this technique? Post them HERE!
Hey all you UUers! Who’s up for another round of Uke Minutes?? Here we go …
In this week’s episode, Aldrine explains the simple – yet oh, so powerful – Muted Octave Strum. It is a variation of another simple technique, introduced in Uke Minutes 26, called “Strum Picking”. Deceptively simple, a properly timed and executed Muted Octave Strum can tear the house down and melt faces in its awesome wake. Please use it wisely.
Speaking of tearing down the house … Next week Saturday (March 28th, at 3pm HST) we will be holding an official UU ONLINE OPEN MIC! If you have a webcam and mic, sign up HERE to show off your mad uke skills! Or just come by to watch, cheer, and applaud loudly for your fellow UUers. We’ll be having a live stream of the entire event here in the Underground, so mark your calendars!
Hope you’re chillin’ like a villain and kickin’ off your Spring Break in style!
Aloha,
-UU Staff
