thanks

Superb grooves and amazing rhythm techiques. Shame the audio quality sucks - sounds like an in camera mic. I think we're missing a lot of the bass wow, especially when the big guy, stops and starts. In there a CD or iTunes mp3 to buy which is recorded properly? Who is the band even?

[pelicula2k8]

It was an in camera mic. Wished I'd done it with aux. mic. The group is The Duke University Djembe Ensemble. They are students and a professional (Bradley Simmons) who teaches them. Not sure if they have recordings. Check on the web.

TO THE PEOPLE WHO HAVE NO SOUND DOWNPLAY IT TO 240p instead of 360

all im saying is thatrace has nothing to do with anththing, you knowwhat i mean. i could have green skin but still have the same mind and skills i have now no matterwhat. your place in the genetic lottery has no say in what you can do, and how well you can do it, the time and effort you put into something is what does it.

Looks interesting, damn shame about the audio quality. It'd be cool if everyone could back of here and there and then bring it back. I was playing with some druid folks last week and it was a wall of noise in the end!
