CHABBO - Our two main djembe rhythm patterns. |
A spontaneous recording of our version of OOMA BALAY - a vocal chant, a call to rhythm, accompanied by djembes and duns. This has been very popular amongst our drummers ... there's a magic to it, a special feeling of connection.

DJEMBE 'PASSPORT #1' (aka Catch the Rat) is a really useful rhythm pattern to get to grips with. It's a very common accompaniment and it's fun to play.
|
Another DJEMBE 'PASSPORT' is the second rhythm pattern for KUKU ... and a very common accompaniment. A djembe drummer's essential!
|
The RHUMBA beat comes in various guises, and is another really useful rhythm to be familiar with.

I've been loving the challenge of us getting Baga Gine together - it's so high energy and an amazing weave of beats and sounds! Looking forward to playing this across all of our djembe groups this year.
