solid wood goats hide djembe drum

We do have smaller djembe drums but in this video we look at our two largest ones. One of them is a classic hand painted rope tied carved African drum with a goats skin hide on top, let me show you how they sound and see how to play the djembe drum. The second drum we look at is our largest djembe drum that is from Indonesia, it has Indonesian legal wood certification to prove its sustainability and is super heavy and resonant which is everything you would expect from a professional drum.

three hands holding wooden sticks in the air

In the traditional grip, you'll hold the stick in your non-dominant hand by resting the stick in the cradle between your thumb and index finger and on top of your ring finger. Wrap your thumb, index and middle fingers around the stick. Hold the other stick using a matched grip. Some jazz drummers use a traditional grip to offer a different kind of control on the snare drum, playing intricate rhythms on it as part of fills.
