Hi Michi, I wanted to answer some time ago but fotgot it...
Sökö is not a Faranah rhythm in the sense that it has been played there longer than in other regions. It is the same phenomenon as with Kawa or Konkoba: They were and are played in the Faranah, Kankan and Kouroussa regions, but as Fadouba Oularé concentrated on them in teaching, many people think that they originate from Faranah. Ironocally enough he has always taught them on the 3 dunduns (not traditional in Faranah). D

@DanielKonate From what I've learned, Sökö originates from the Faranah region, and Tiriba is originally a Landouma rhythm from the areas around Boke and Boffa.
The rhythm played in the video is completely unlike any version of Sökö I've ever come across. On the other hand, it sounds a lot like some versions of Tiriba I've learned over the years.
If this is Sökö, it is a very unusual Sökö indeed :-)

well, Tiriba is unlike Soli/Dundunba etc. from Lower Guinea and originally not played on three dunduns (there are many different djembé traditions in Guinea).
Probably the guys are from the Conakry region ("Bafodeh" means big Fodé in Susu, a Maninka in Upper Guinea would be called Fodéba).
Sökö is something different and rarely played in Lower Guinea (there exist two-dundun-versions, too: Faranah, probably Siguiri).
The music's nice, by the way.
Greets, D

That's not Soko, that's Tiriba.

That's not Tiriba, nor Triba! My people from Guinee "sold" me this aspecial rhythm as SOKO.
so wazzup? ;-)
TIRIBA itself is like SOLI, KASSA or DUNDUNBA one of a majorgroup of rhythms westafrican drummers (mostly from Guinee) play. These Names just sorted them into this rhythmn-families. Many other names are available inside these families.
Let us not be more original than the originals, bro ;-)
