Play a Djembe Drum Jam Session

My partner, a master djembe and conga drummer and I played for decades, hand drums, for now, in many countries, small villages and towns, and many, many drum jams. Not all were great, some were terrible, and it took years and a trip to Tobago, West Indies to find out what it was that made the difference.

A drum session leaves you bored or tired evil or both. Much Ado is produced, but the music very little. He remembers a kindergarten orkindergarten class with a music session, with each child to be provided only by chance that the sound from an instrument in whatever way they moved, to feel. Do not get me wrong, I'm not knocking the music classes to elementary students. The first stages of learning music requires that students are encouraged to "just play." It 's all good for young students, but is a disaster for a group of his own drummer drumming in this way.

A large drum jam inspired you, raisesand refers to a special frequency of Sound & Magic. This condition can be achieved only if the drummer, what all the batteries connected. It 'important that all the drummers do their part in the song, and that only measures drummer Cable Abstract root pattern of play, change beats, beats and Counter ups off. If the drummer wants to play more of a lead role, will coordinate to achieve lead-free or that the partiesDo not crash each other for existence (to get extremely difficult and even wild carrying out of the box drum). The main role is exciting drummers to add high-energy sound bites inside, outside and around the base and the rate of root-beat.

The importance of the possible with a simple drum beat the paps not be overstated. If we stop with the culture, a percussion band in all of Tobago, West Indies, we had hooked a first hand experience what a great cause of this problemreally is. We had to play with this practice only band with the intention to learn their songs, perform live with them while we were visiting Tobago for a few months. We visited some of their performances to give them feedback about the sound from the standpoint of the public. Show your drum is always fabulous, but a night that all sounded confused and it was difficult to get wild in their hypnotic groove.

In practice, the next band was actually the founder and directorCanceled for something. We noticed that he was angry now, when we arrived, as a Canadian classic apologetic, we assumed that we had made some gaffes. But no! It 'been a bit of other drummers and he was all about the last show. The other drummer, Kintaka was broken and parts of the song in a cliff to take the top right of what Wayne, the leader did. He called this the mash beat. He was just angry about it and even if the drummer wasVolume decided from the outset, Wayne, the band that he fire the night.

What a night! The whole band was there to practice, when Wayne Kintaka informed that places with him about his case and that more Kintaka crush had become final. The sparks that flew in the next battle was really afraid, now that I think about it. Kintaka knife threatened violence during our three sons, Wayne, "2 looked at the door of what was happening. We intervenedNames of children to cool the heat of debate and get Kintaka and between children and Wayne. I do not know where we got the courage to move so crazy, but that's what we did. Kintaka stared at this new obstacle that we had for a long time and we just burned holes in any other leaders with an intense look.

He moved forward and said: "There is no way I can get through this." When it came to Wayne and our children, I firmly replied: "Yes, you can use only onedeep breath and think how crazy it would lead to physical violence to something spiritual, as a drummer. "

Our angels are in use by that evening, because after all I blurted out, all the air went straight ugly violence from him. Wayne has teased again, then turned and walked away. We were all pretty upset, both Kintakas "anger and also the way in which a man of a drum band scapped could not reach the crushing heart once too often.

We are not as extremeour response to the kind of drummer that will not only play back music or a place to fly back. It 's like the old saying "too many cooks spoil the broth." If more than one drummer, and especially when all the drummers are just their own things during a drum jam, then sound like kids to kindergarten class ... a big noisy mess annoying edifying. If you want a drum jam happened, then all the drums, the song is played and you must learnallowed, leading to reproduce all of coordinated strikes. Of course, this requires an effort far more than all but 1-2, 1-2 Over & Over, the game faster and faster, get tired pure a. It 's so worth it to do this extra work. The challenge is satisfying and makes the sound of a drum circle, not tremble in the dance and music from noise.

Happy Jamming!
