I am thankful that you hold the space for many repetitions with you! It really helps to memorize the pulse with the body.
Thanks for the kind words! Glad you're enjoying the videos!
Thanks a lot for all the clear and instructive material. It is a lot of fun to practise with your videos. I am looking forward to more. Best from Germany
So glad you're enjoying the videos! Cheers from Canada...
This is a great video. I played my drums many years ago but since moving to a new area have not been able to find like minded folks. So, my many drums have adorned my walls and home for abut 10 years. Now I am retired and have time to 're-learn". My first challeng was what is the D-K-T-P and which hand do I use - lol. This video took me right to where I need to be. I will be following and practicing every day. THANK YOU for making this so simple to understand.
I'm so glad you've found this video useful! Happy drumming!

I just purchased a Buffalo Drum will mine have the same sounds? You are a fantastic tutor - thanks from Canada (:
One of my first frame drums was a Buffalo Drum actually! The tone will be a bit deeper, more earthy, but all the same strokes can be played!
🙂💫👏👏
Thanks ken this is awesome. Is this time signature still 4/4 or is it 5/4?
Hi! You can actually apply different time signatures to these sequences of five. I hear these patterns in 5/8 actually, although 5/4 works as well.
@@kenshorley Thank you Ken!!
Thanks for the video. So the time signature is 5/4 and divided into two pulses 2+3)?
Yes if you're notating rhythms in five, you could use a 5/4 or 5/8 time signature. And most fives are divided into two groupings - either 2+3 or 3+2.
@@kenshorley Thank you!
Thanks, the elements on your wall are acoustic modifiers? Made or purchased?
They are homemade acoustic panels using rigid insulation boards wrapped in fabric.
where can i buy a frame drum just like that one?
From the fine people at Cooperman Drums in Vermont, USA! cooperman.com
I currently bought a shaman dram with a stick from Amazon.The frame of it is not like your drum. Is it also possible to play it with my hands like you are doing? I don’t know if it sound not like yours because of the fact that I’m beginner or because my drum is not made for that. I appreciate your reply.
Hello! A 'shaman' drum is typically tuned much lower, and often has a thicker drum skin, which sounds less responsive than these Cooperman tars, where the skin is artificial and can be tuned up fairly high.
It's certainly possible to use your drum to learn these rhythms, but as you mentioned, the sound will be different.
