West Africa Drum Live Session

Manjou leads with a drum rhythm from West Africa, Musical Mindset, and friends accompanying with percussion. Most African melodies are based on a “limited number of pitches” - four, five, six, or seven-note SCALES and are normally short and simple, often expanded by Repetition and Improvisation. There are three ways to strike the head in djembe drumming: slap, bass, and tone. Slap: Slap sounds make the highest-pitched sounds on the djembe. Hit the edge of the drum with a slight curvature in your fingers. Bass: Bass sounds are the lowest pitches on the djembe. ... Tone: Tone sounds are medium-pitched.

Eu amo essa música. Me dá energia, disposição e ao mesmo tempo, me dá calma. 💖

That was perfect. I focused on the low beat throughout as an anchor and it really helped me feel grounded even as the other drums around the lowest went faster and faster.
