@Metaalhart Fake or not, it's needlessly disorientating.

I forgot to ask for the name Ghanaians use for the cowbell.

I added this video to my Cocojams website page Videos Of Traditional Musical Instruments. It's under "drums" now until I learn the traditional names that Ghanaians use for those drums. Thanks again to the videographer for such a high quality video. Btw, I didn't mine the photography technique though I confess it startled me each time because I thought that there was something wrong with the video. I wish this video were longer :o(

Thanks for this video! Those brothas are fine :o) What part of Ghana is this? What are these long drums & the other shaped drums to the right called in Akan? Ewe? Ghanaian languages? Btw,the Brazilian samba group Olodum uses the same red, yellow, and green colors as their group colors. The group name Olodum came from the Yoruba (Nigeria) God Olodumare, but I'm wondering if those colors have any significance in this part of Ghana. Thanks again.

@Flatliner0452 This is not fake photo. There is a photo cameras, which while shooting video allows you to make a photo. Videos in this moment is interrupted. It creates this effect.
