  • snare drummer?

    

  • It gave me a headache .Not a nice noise,Its a djembe not a snaredrum.

    PLEASE PLAY AUTHENTICALLY SO PEOPLE DO NOT LEARN BAD HABITS

  • ahh....djembe snobs. drumming is supposed to bring others together through music. Good music is good music. Originality starts somewhere

  • Playing it like a conga... definitely good chops for that sorta thing

  • yup, sounds just like a plastic drum.......and that's not a djembe

  • @bloodknot101 I agree with you...he is a derbak/daraburka player, instruments used in arabic music, bellydance...not djembe player

  • should have stuck with tappin on the desk...

    probably would have sounded about the same...

    and use your whole hand not just your fingertips....

  • i have the same djembe!! the sound is owesome!!! nice play dude, very nice!!!

  •  wow 1 minute and 41 seconds of straight tones real impressive

  • @jeremyjondale YES! please post a video on how to tune, I just got one and I don't know how... DO IT ASAP! Thanks!

  • Practice makes perfect.

  • This is not djembe...

  • Is not good, is noise only =S

  • OoOoh yeah now this is the drum I want for my birthday or christmas! :D

  • I have a fake skin on my djembe, but I've tuned it properly and it sounds amazing. Maybe I need to post a video on how to tune a the Remo djembe...

  • it's a fake head.put a goat skin on it.the ringing will stop.and his highs and lows will be more pronounced.

  • You need to tune that thing, it sounds monotone. Truly terrible.

  • I agree with the criticisms about speed. You love to drum but honestly it sounds like noise more than anything resembling a rhythm.

  • work on your technique first then work on speed.

  • mate

    it sounds FUCKED

  • oooooh.......

  • there a djembes that are key tuned it doesnt make them not djembes

  • ES VERDAD TA DESAFINADO!

  • tune it.
