This video is a special one for me... David "La Mole" Ortiz is by far a Pioneer that left a mark on so many percussionist. From being a humble teacher to being a Master Technician... La Mole's fingerprints have been left on so many.
He may have not been the most known... but amongst us in the conga community... He's a Hero.

In between Eric, my inspiration. I started in February this year. Because of the corona, I thought starting playing an instrument. Oh man, what a good decision. Thanks corona. Most of all thanks to you, Eric. Your way of playing, your way of teaching, talking. Your performance is perfect. Please, never stop your teaching. You r , I think for many people inspiring. I do learn already so many things on conga S. In my time there was no internet. You can say a lot of bad things about internet, but there are so many more good things about this. It gives me a lot of pleasure and inspiration. Ok, I stop now, thanks my friend. A lot of love from holland👌🙏🏿
David was a teacher of mine. Thanks for highlighting him today.
Spoke to David La Mole on the phone once , I was going down to Puerto Rico and was trying to schedule a lesson with him, unfortunately it didn't happen , would've been great to have been able to sit down with this legend, R.I.P. Don David...
Just a humble man with an amazing talent…God rest his soul
This guy is going to literally categorize every great tumbao by every great conga player there ever was. We might as well stick Eric in the Smithsonian. What is worse is since 6am I been checking if he put out another video. So, I guess we all are coco for Congas!
Kaban hahahahaha thanks!
heck !! It's 2am and Im still checking his videos on tumbaos
Ever since I saw this video and learned this tumbao, I have been able to find Sr. Ortiz videos on TH-cam, and learn from them as well! Thank you so much for introducing me to this amazing conguero. His tumbaos have become a couple of my go-to's when I play!
Bendiciones y gracias por seguir los paso de mi tío. Soy único heredero de la percusión de la familias.
They all learned from David I even had a class from him one time I went to PR for vacation. Great man and Christian. The amazing "La Mole" RIP Maestro.
Awesome!!!!
I had the good fortune of inviting La Mole to Arizona to perform a percussion clinic. The guy had an impeccable vocabulary - he played for an hour without replicating the rhythms. Mixing the bells pattern into his repertoire his creativity was endless. We became very good friends and shared some memorable rumbas together...
i guess Im asking the wrong place but does any of you know of a tool to get back into an instagram account..?
I was stupid forgot the password. I would appreciate any assistance you can offer me.
@Jonah Alec instablaster :)
@Kaysen Albert i really appreciate your reply. I found the site thru google and Im in the hacking process now.
Takes a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Kaysen Albert it worked and I actually got access to my account again. Im so happy:D
Thank you so much you really help me out!
@Jonah Alec Happy to help :)
Hola Eric... my first time to see you...Man alive, your passion, soulful and relaxed manner, articulation on the drums and speech, ability to communicate shine through...what a devoted person you are. Mater Ortiz was on another level from we mortals. I am going to try to score some Conga.. I have to try... those rhythms go into my bones. Cheers from Texas.
Wow what a great variation! La Mole was kept hidden and never got mainstream recognition...too bad cuz he was right up there with the best of them if not better!
Nice! Those drums are starting to sound real good with those skins.
Excelente Eric, gracias por considerarnos a los que hablamos castellano!! buena vida!!
And I would add you to all those great percussionists…. your work certainly qualifies you to be on that list, in my humbled opinion
Oye muchas Gracias por subir los vídeos con subtítulos en español... No te imaginas lo mucho que nos ayudas!!!
Mil gracias!!!!
RIP David. I have study his tumba and like you said not easy thanks for making it much more simple. And just to let you know all your videos hit home and help me so much when you do the recap Thanks ...3days a week 😱 can't. Wait.
Emilio Emilio hahaha still thinking about it
Gracias... Wow. Una legend en Puerto Rico. Respect 100%.
great video. it’s not only instructional but also an insight into conga music roots. Having fun learning this tumbao, can’t leave the drums until i get the mechanics of it, at least. lol
Hey Eric! I'm eating, sleeping and drinking tumbaos...........:-). I truly never realised there were so many variations on a theme. My favourite is the Armando Peraza rhythm because that really swings and just connects. Another uplifting and inspiring video, your love and passion for the history and personalities of the congas is infectious and a joy to behold. Also, the overhead cam shots are very useful.
God bless you and gratitude for your time and commitment .
Blair.
Blair MacEwan Crosbie thanks man! I’m glad you’re enjoying the videos
Great lesson! Flows nicely with the hands.
La mole!!! Monacillos PR Maestro e inspiracion de muchos👏👍🙏💪
Love this tutorial and of course the shirt!
Excelente Eric! Gracias por la traducción. La mole 👏👏👏👏
Awesome video and tribute to David . Gracias maestro 🙏
Eres el mejor youtuber que enseña y nos educa con relación a la pasión de las congas. Saludos desde Puerto Rico. Gracias por este canal.
Eric, I just want to say thank you for putting up this video. I've been working on this combination for almost a month. It is a work in progress but I'm enjoying every minute of it. Thank you for all your tireless efforts and being one of my virtual from the teachers. Appreciate you.-Gerry
Eric, I can't thank you enough for what you do. I'm coming online for the first time and as I reconnect with playing congas, you're videos have been a true blessing. Good content and very personable: Great stuff--keep up the solid work!
All the best,
Ray
i wasnt sure what to really really think of u now im thoroughly impressed
Este era el q yo estaba buscando! Gracias por rendirle tributo a la mole Ortiz! Tremendo conguero y un hombre de Dios! Big up yourself Eric!
Bro.... Bongos... Is da shiz!!! That's my main instrument. You already know!!! Lolol. Great video as always bruddah!!!
I didn't know that he died man... it saddened me but he left much for all who like to vibe a skin....thank you..
What a nice tumbao, thanks a lot and greetings from Cologne
The T-shirt is quite appropriate. Bongo instructions and Spanish subtitles?yuo must be out of your mind and all this hard work and time? Sheesh, when do you take that conga Pkaying Rumbero beatufiful boy of your's to the park? What about quality time with Wifey, working to pay rent and putting rice and beans on the table? Thing is I don't want you getting overwhelmed, exhausted, burned out and kick out of the house . I'm very happy with 2 conga lessons a week. Dude, I can barely keep up with one. Give me time to digest, process, meditate and reflect . Some have no idea how much it takes for you to be consistent , responsible and keep it real like you do. You are amazing and I just dig how you keep it fun. You are a passionate Conguero. Blessings my a brother. Hey, let your kid do the bongo lessons and pay him.
Man thanks for the consideration... For Real... I truly Appreciate that!... And great idea... He needs to start giggin anyways hahaha
ive seen david do "press roles " sounded like lenny white w return to forever jack im impressed yung man.... love u.... keep up the good work n ty....... regards
Many thanks, another great video!
Irmão, tenho aprendido muito com seus vídeos! Sem dúvidas seu canal tem o melhor conteúdo para aprender a tocar congas! Saludo desde Brazil! Thanks and God bless you!
Sounds a lot like Tumba I saw Tomasito Cruz plays... Great lesson, thank you
Also, next time if you could play with clava that would be awesome. It's hard to understand just by words :)
David "La Mole" Ortiz was a BAD DUDE!!!. RIP MAESTRO
YESSSSS
Eric, crazy but I have been doing this before seeing this video man I love David La Mole Ortiz he is da man!!!
Dude,your my david ortiz brother. You rock
Best one yet!! El mayor de los mayores. Thank you for giving the respect to an artist with just a driving force to explore the tumbadora for it can accomplish to the soul. A very similar ideology of Tata and all of his students.
I like the theme of bringing to light some less than “famous” virtuosos. Please add Daniel Ponce to your long list of “how to do [insert Conga Hero]”.
Oscar Carranza yesssss very soon!!!
Eso es la segunda parte de un songo de Changuito que se llama (si me acuerdo bien) Bonko Taniye, y que fue usado en diversas canciones de los Van Van, y tambien en la cancion Todos Vuelven interpretada por Ruben Blades. Eso se oye durante el montuno. El tumbao completo permite cruzarse con la clave, pero con elegancia, y, volver con ella al fin del patron ritmico. Pero bravissimo por darnos a conocer mas de la historia de los grandes percusionistas que hicieron progresar la musica a traves de estos increibles instrumentos que son las percusiones Afro-Caribenas ! ! !
Gracias maestro, saludos desde Veracruz, México si amigo Carlos Montiel Cortés
Love it , thank you brother
Genial por lo de los subtítulos maestro!!!
Gracias eso mismo tenía en mente los videos en español saludos desde PR 👍 EL VIEJO SALSERO
Nice work.
Hi another jewel thanks nice day
Very nice sir. I learn many lessone from you. Thank you so mutch sir. Snehasish Ghosh from India.
Yesss he was the man. Great vid. Any vids on the traditional tumbao the Cuban way? That has the ghost note after slap with same hand
Saludos erick desde mexico
a variation: In the the second half of this tumbao on the main drum, replace the palm-finger slap finger-palm-finger open-tone with *full hand Base-finger* slap finger-palm-finger open-tone.
I love your lessons, great job I’m learning lots , by the way I’m an Eric too lol
Impresionante muy buena data
Gracias por los susbtitulos!! Felicitaciones!!!
Yo bro ,as a life long conga player and band leader your stuff on youtube is just plain......AWESOMEEE
One guy that needs to be mentioned is georgie padilla ,hes played with the greats like Sonora poncena, Richie ray n Bobby cruz ect and also is an music arranger .he also studied with la mole
Só brabo !!!!!
Me encantan tus vídeos son geniales, de verdad gracias por compartir este contenido y subtitulado en español, eres un gran percusionista, llevaba tiempo tratando de entender todo, pero mi inglés no es tan bueno
Diego Aguilar gracias!!!
Beautiful
Exelente !
Damn I do love that shirt ayy
Love you videos keep it up bro please how do you freezing your congas this is the video that nobody has done
Aaron Stuckey freezing?
Muy bueno los subtítulos al castellano brother!! Bendiciones 🙏!!
Diego Alba haha Gracias!
dont forget.... consider sheet music that encompasses a couple bars of say tumbao my friend..... keep up the good work ... Regards
Excelente video , soy tu fan , me gustaría que nos enseñarás el ritmo balsie en conga, se usa en el merengue, saludos maestro!
I know you're from somewhere in Central America, but, when you speak Spanish, you have a boricua accent. And I know that accent cause I used to live in that beautiful small island back in 96.
After counting the dooong dooong on the tumbadora is on the 4& (1st measure) and the 2nd beat on the 3 side (son clave) is on the & of the 6 (or & of the 2 in the second measure)
.
Eres de las pocas personas que a mencionado a david la mole y su grandesa en las timbas fue el maestro de maestro ., tambien el conguero con mas grabaciones de estudio y con un tiempo de reloj suizo fue su estudiante el famozo jimmy morales
ur right.... he never really got credit he deserved
Hey brother, Do you usually hit the open tones with open fingers? Do you think that closing your fingers and a going a little lower towards the rim produces its own unique sound? Even if it's in detriment of speed? Thanks bro, great help.
Hey Eric, could you do a tutorial video on how to play congas and bongo. Not at the same time but seperately. The groove I am looking for is on Gamirey's song " Amor Perfecto". You can find here on youtube. I am talking about the sound when the bongos come in. There is a slap that sounds really high pitch. Not sure if it is the congas or bongos or if they do it together. Please check out the song and please do a video. Thanks and GBU.
ahaaaaaaaa muy bueno
I’ve never had formal training but I’m told I’m gifted because of this. I believe I could use some training tho. If anyone is in the Phoenix Az area let’s hook up and jam
That 1st clip of La Mole is from one of my favorite drumming videos of all time!!!!
Dude those subtítulos are gonna take such a long time. It would be easier to make a 2nd channel with the same lessons. Or I would guess so.
Same Here... He literally went off for over 10mins!!! ... And I thought about that... But to edit another video and managing another channel would be a lot more work... Editing these videos take over 4-5 hours haha
A Percussion Life wow, That's longer than I would have imagined.
Matt Musician X hahaha yeaaaa doesn’t seem like much but video editing is time consuming... (color grading, audio syncing, camera angles, story telling) all that man lol it’s crazy... but worth it when I see others learning from them.
A Percussion Life wow yeah. Way to go. Keep it up!!!
Primero que todo, muchas gracias por este video! Puedes decirme que marca de conga y tumba tienes? Jaja, Gracias ya leí la información de tus congas! :-)
Eric your absolutely right. El Rey de Los congas. Gracias. Can you please tell me what’s the thickness of your congas skin. Thanks
Thank you! And they are 2mm+ extra thick
Another great video Eric - thank you very much. I was with you all the way until you mentioned the clave and now I'm horribly confused so I'm hoping you can help me get my head round it. The tumba falls on the second hit on the 3-side so, if I've got this right, that would mean that this pattern begins with the standard palm, finger, slap, finger, palm, finger on the 2-side...is that correct? And if so, why not start the pattern there? Thanks Andy :)
sambaManniom you’re absolutely right.... but when I was referencing the clave... I wasn’t indicating when the pattern begins... it was more so just stating where the Tumba would land.... here’s the original video if you would like to see... thank you though... I should have been more clear! th-cam.com/video/3yqAJTMVyDo/w-d-xo.html
Cheers Eric. I'm still confused tho' - if it's 2/3 why wouldn't it start on the 2-side? Sorry man :)
where can i get t- shirt jack? love it
Eric.. can you do a merensongo video.. ala Changuito or Pedrito Martinez ..thanks in advance..
Thanks for the videos. Can you make a video on how to play congas alongside the drums please. I play congas in my church and I just try to follow his rhythm, but I don't know if I'm doing it right. Thanks.
Will do... What type of rhythms did you want sampled?
A Percussion Life Most of the time we play rock or pop, Miel San Marcos or Marco Barrientos style of music not sure if you know them.
Oh I do brother! Ok I can do a video along those lines.
awesome I also play percussion along side a traditional drummer. I feel like sometimes we can step on each others toes.
A Percussion Life Thank you.
Buen Video Hermano, Saludos desde Barranquilla Colombia, un gran favor amigo, quiero que hagas unos videos de tumbaos de Kachiro Thompson And Jimmy Morales, seria de gran ayuda, y ya me suscribi, un abrazo percutido!!
You said “left hand”. Do you mean the submissive runt on the end of my non-dominant arm?
Oh, nice lesson, nice tumbo by the way.
To me it seems that two open tones on tumba fall in 2 side of 2-3 clave, not 3 side. Please correct me if I am wrong. The pattern also starts before the first beat. The first slap is actually the first beat, while open and palm (first two moves) on quinta are immidiatelly before the first beat.
I think you're right!
Eric is was a tough one to learn and I’ll definitely be able to slide this into many songs. Took me about a week off and on real slowly until it makes sense. The biggest thing I pick up from your videos is using the proper handing techniques and timing. This rhythms forces you to use several types of strokes like close slap, open slap, heel tip, a touch and open tones. That a full deck of handing techniques and will definitely challenge any percussionist. I love the challenge so keep bringing em. I’m about to drop a service that I pay for but very seldom use. I already subscribe to your channel but will look to send you some funds to get better input from your channel. I spend a lot of time following you my brother. Let me know what I can do.😎🪘
@@TheCudabug really appreciate it brother!!! And I’m so happy that patterns like these really help with your development as a percussionist 🙌🏽 feel free to email me at anytime at apercussionlife1@gmail.com if you wanted to help… but also I recently released an ebook which actually has this pattern with notations along with others I’ve done which you can get here www.paypal.com/instantcommerce/checkout/2V29XBNVYS9S8
@@APercussionLife just bought one my brother. I’m a performing percussionist who studies four to five times a week so this should be good. You were also mentioned from my teacher Johnny Conga so you I trust what you bring.😎🪘
@@TheCudabug awesome!!! I saw the order! You should have it in your email... check your spam if you don't have it yet... But man an honor to be mentioned by Johnny Conga!!! I do hope the book can help you!!! thank you so much!
@@APercussionLife this is an awesome book my brother. I have a collection of your videos on different topics but now this makes it much easier especially with the notation included.

Haz video en español
You're not puerto rican? what's your origin? just curious.
edgar bodero I’m from El Salvador.
I"m from Guayaquil, Ecuador where I'm currently residing. I learned to play when I was a kid in NY with the puerto ricans and then in Miami with the cubans, like you, I'm very passionate about our common instrument, your tutorials and very good and on the money. If you would like to one day come down to Guayaquil, we can set up clinics and jam at parks, beach, etc., let me know. No need to bring congas, I have plenty.
Who was his teacher?
Abraham Rosales no one, he learned on his own
interesting you play with a ring on your finger....
Haha yea it’s a rubber ring
"Famous for his chachareo"
*si fuera en español seria EXCELENTE*
Pensé que tu eres PR???
Great guy, big loss. I took 2 classes on bongos with him.
