Remo Djembe Solo (Contemporary) - Earth Demo

IG/turbochicken

In no way is this performance to represent authentic or recommended Djembe playing style as perceived by any traditional Djembe teacher, practitioner, drumming body or maker. This is purely a personal exploration and interpretation of the tonal and rhythmic possibilities of the reinvented fibreglass Djembe, specifically looking at the adaptation of western drum set rhythms onto a single membrane ethnic instrument.

It has been 6 years since i discovered this video, i watch it times to times but the more i watch the more i like it. I've never played an instrument in my life but because of this video, i'm sure to play one some day.

Man i have to say you groove, i celebrate the way your soundscape plays to my ear. All phrase to traditions who are the keepers and vessels of the groove, though for those who whine of not being traditional are merely stuck in a box with wax clogging their live the groove, well done!

[moxshyfter]

Very cool grooves man! It's neat seeing how you can make so many sounds with just one instrument.

[Kiwi_DeFruit]

Such an emotion and sense of rhythm is something worth of everyone's respect.

[toniruthrivers]

It’s more than drumming or even music. He has a language all his own, yet it speaks to all of us.

[jonathanortiz]

[tstazzers]

Beautiful, natural, pure percussion - he is amazingly talented.

[actrealationalist]

This is so creative and groovy that I keep coming back to it.

[jongomm]

This is wonderful, so much colour, and a human vocal quality to the sounds. 

[alexanderkomov]

That totally expands my scope of percussion knowledge quite a lot

[Maytals]

he is like the salt bae of drums haha. Just looking at the attitude and 1mn of caressing the djembe is hillarious.

[xndr]

that was incredible, thank you for posting

[dgrren]

Nice solo man! Great mixture of different techniques and tones! The best part about your solo is that you are into it and feeling it...
which is the only way to play music!
