To understand this rythm, it's important to understand that there're several parts. First ternary, then binary and you'll finish again switching to ternary. The song is the most important part of the Djélifoly. When you understand where it feats in the first part then you can't get wrong in the rest. Here some exemple of this rythm : The ibrahima sarr_porte 386, françois souleymane dembele_san toro are especially interesting for presenting the full rythm.

Just feel the rhythm, listen, relax, and let the rhythm come. Learn to breathe. Learn to feel the sound with your hands. That binary tertiary business is nonsense. Learn from the oldest drummer you can find. Humble yourself and let the rhythm play through you.
This is from Mali and needs to be played like in Mali. This guy Weedie is American and doesn't understand this, so he forces the music. Plus, the break is wrong, as it added part of the solo to it. And Lamban DOES have a break. Study again and respect older traditions rather than changing them, as Americans do.
yo yo man this is so cool, i realy was able to play it, like you counting the tempo and the diffrent between african an western accent (1-3, and 2-4) great video, looking forward for more step by step videos :)

You are changing your hand pattern in the call to start the roll, so what is the correct? To finish with the right (dominant-bass starter) or the left hand? Btw it's a great lecture :)
The Hand pattern is meaningless to great players. Both hands are the same to them. Therefore, they have to slow down to illustrate the basics for us mortals.
I really like your rendition of "lamban", but there's another dude on the tube that plays it totally different. But I will definitely stick with your style. Nice work.
No not to play the djembe drum with a ring on your finger. One of the unwritten rules for drum etiquette. We do not wear rings, bracelets or watches while we playing hand drums.
Sorry guys I dont know who tought you guys that as lamban!!!! we are from Mali more over we are Malinke people it was a nice try but its not lamban. the break is wrong and the dundun is more or less wrong sorry
I am sure "jazz" from your country does not sound exactly like "jazz" from the USA. And music from one part of your country, Mali, does not sound exactly like that from another part. I have heard a lot of "purist" talk on RUclips and elsewhere. There are no grand masters that embrace every cultural nook and cranny (although some proclaim themselves as such). The outstanding thing about African cultures to me is their common threads and remarkable variety.
Rascal relativist American bullshit. BATA has been changed in Cuba and preserved in Africa, where the only changes come back from the Americas. Still a slave master after slavery
Rascal we stick to.music. In drumming many rhythm phrases are actual language bits, whether Malinke or whatnot, that are saying specific things, to which other drums reply in kind. So, one needs to know that to enter the dialogue. Then improvisation is all good, but it needs to come from that strong base of knowledge. Then, when people travel (by force or not is another matter) and resettle, slowly the influence remains, but those dialogues are changed until they become something else. That was the case with the slaves in the islands who developed their own tradition, which echoes that of the motherland
chris sto bullshit. You use the word righteousness not to face your own ignorance and inadequacy in the matter. You must be American. Learn from those who know more and shut up and be humble.

Is there a video for the second djembe part?

Thanks you for this real video learn. (sorry bad english 😁) 👍👐👏👏
WEEDIE!!!!!! How are ya man? I didn't know that you had these on here. Dang, it's been a while. Wishing you well, and peace. Mick from St Louis.

I can play that because I have my own djembe
I would love to get a Djembe drum but I don't have enough money to buy it
Buy it second hand
I really like your rendition of "lamban", but there's another dude on the tube that plays it totally different. But I will definitely stick with your style. Nice work.
gooood but where is other lamban rhytms?

Its good to see that Africa has folk nazis too. Where would we be without folk nazis showing us the light of musical righteousness?

think you have been hacked... link takes me to a sexual site!!!!
Omg less talking more playing
