Im 4 years late but this was the class I EXCELLED in (along with the dunun drums which I pray I spelling right!) - this brought back a passion in me and I’m sitting here with my djembe in between my legs ☺️👌🏽 thank you for these videos!
I wish this was the first video I had watched before playing the djembe. Thank you. I'm a white dude from Ohio, by the way. :)

.......rhythm
I am OK with you
Are you sure about what're you said?
So, the Djembe dosen't has Is own technic?
It has its own technique which I show in my other Djembe videos. Unlike other instruments, you are more free do experiment than a violin for example.
Just about everything you said about the djembé was wrong...eg djembés were traditionally made by the village blacksmiths not the players themselves, djembés now are definitely mass produced so the shells at least can be exactly the same. The djembe is a cultural instrument of the Manding people and you as an African should learn something about that culture before you give permission to people to play however the hell they want on it.
Yey I've learnt new things and I'll include them in the next djembe episodes. I'm hoping you are subscribed. Thanks.
Pretty much everything you said about this beautiful instrument is incorrect.
There is proper technique and a "prper way" to play the instrument and there are traditional rhythms that go with the "djembe orchestra (thats the djembe plus 3 other drums called DunDuns associated with it)", there are djembes that are mass produced (the one you have for instance is a mass produced djembe from Ghana), and originally the blacksmith would make the djembe for the players not the drummers themselves, tuning djembes are quite easy once you learn, as well as the size of the djembe DOES NOT indicate how high it will be.
Please, please, please, invest in a proper/larger djembe and truly study the music and its culture w a teacher as it has soooooo much knowledge, depth, and structue as well as freedom attached to it.
Of course it's mass produced nowadays, I meant historically. I know there is a proper technique to play it but that's not my teaching style. I want to draw in a student with easy things first then complicate it later. You are missing the point while trying to be too perfect. My target audience don't care about proper technique. This is for fun my brother, you can make your own videos with the proper technique for the serious students.
@@RhythmInAfrica100% agree your style is the PERFECT way to onboard new drummers. Technical theory is far too overwhelming and off putting for students in their first lesson 1. If we don’t find a connection between ourselves and the drum, we’ll never continue. The way to do that is giving us some context, and a little guidance and non judgement. Which you did in abundance. So thank you for that. I’m definitely sticking with you for the journey. Absolutely nailed it 👍
And for the commenter that made this ridiculous critique, dude it’s lesson 1 🤦♀️
Very disappointing ~ chat chat chat ~ go practice chatting
will get better.
