Adaption of Samba to my Indigenous Roots Drum Kit. Left foot plays an Airto samba pattern on Nigerian log drum, right foot plays the Surdo part on djun djun. Hands do a little thing on conga and suspended seed pod and nut shell shakers.

  • This is cool! Do you know anymore about that Airto pattern?? Does it come from something traditional in Samba??

  • Airto's pattern is out of his book 'The Spirit of Percussion' and is traditional Brazilian for sure ...

    I play the pattern with the left foot on the Nigerian log drum. Counting four quarter notes to the two measure phrase, the beats fall on 1 and 2, then &of3, &of4, &of1, then 3 and 4.
