  • IT'S TUTORIAL THURSDAYS!!!
    So today I wanted to kinda kick it old school and go back to doing a Tumbao with just One Conga...
    I absolutely love practicing with just one drum because it causes you to truly explore all the elements the Drum has to offer.
    I hope y'all enjoy.

    Tumbao with one conga is important to learn, especially for the street percussionist who can carry only one conga on the road. Or for the small acoustic band, where the percussionist do not want to bring too many instruments, and want to vary from conga, bongo, to cajon for each and every song the band want to perform in the small restaurants, lounges, or coffee houses

    One conga rocks. I play djembe so one drum makes a lot of sense to me. The tumbao with the variations at the end, man I could listen to that for hours. Much appreciated Maestro.

    Great video Eric! Even older school - try with no left hand marcha/manoteo whatsoever, only a palm bass tone on the left hand. Leaves a lot of space. I sometimes do that also when playing Rumba Columbia....gives it more oomph!

    My first conga was an lp carabie conga before moving on up to LP Aspire congas then moved onto a second Aspire conga & turned into goodwill thrift store my LP carabie conga for someone that can't afford to buy a quality conga drum.
    That conga let a lone a travel size I think of the carabie conga. It sounded good but didn't go with my aspires on how much I tuned the carabie conga. Now that I use LP Giovanni galaxy congas with LP Giovanni galaxy bongos my LP Aspire congas sound good, but want better quality since my playing as improved thanks to you man!

    Exelente video! Tb to abuelo's cuentos con el laitel pa afinarlo jaja. Question tho, tengo un par de congas de LP, un macho y un segundo (conga regular, la media) pero no tengo tumbadora. A mí me gusta improvisar pero el quinto es muy pequeño para mí y pa mantenerle el tono un poco más bajito los golpes se suenan muy aguados. Si obtengo una tumbadora, está bien si yo uso el segundo como mi tambor predominante en vez del macho?

    Sería posible hacer más vídeos para una sola conga, mucha gente no puede comprar más de una.

    This is the first video that I really like from you. I don`t like that you never explain context. It's like "play this exercise (although I don't remember actually using it anywhere )". So what would be the point? Most of conga tutorial never explain context, is it for intro? is it for salsa? is it for timba? does it match cascara? do you play it for mambo or for son? Or probably your tutorial are intended only for intermediate players? Cheers, man. I dont mean any offense, it's just my feeling. Thank you
