This guy (soulemane Camara) is a good friend if mine. Thats why i know not all his bells are always correct. The skin-strikes are from his feeling and very correct.

My advise: dont try to copy his bells when you play. I dont !

Greetings and thank you for your reaction.

Thanks for you reaction! The music is how they play it in Guinee. This recording was made in Gambia. They travel and spread the music. We always look for people from guinee to teach us. There are always different versions of specific rhythms. The way they play it in the villages is slower and most of the time nicer then the ballet (fast dance) versions you see in the performences for audience.

There they leave out a lot of nice background music then. enjoy....there is more to come!!

Thanks for posting this drum videos, they're great!! we really get to know a variety of rhythms in an understandable way :) Are they particular to guinea or are they widespread in other regions?
