Bravo! This is what i've been waiting from you: bongo rhythms for the famous USA songs in the 1970-80 years. For example: songs of Chicago, Neil Young, Neil Diamond, Beatles, Bee Gees, Carpenters... Furthermore, in this clip, the demo after the song was played slower. So, this time, I think I can practice well your variations. Thank you, Bongorilao.
I'd say you do have good taste in music, my friend! I don't know when this Chicago tune came out, but for sure the 70s. I tried slower but it will take time to learn how to show the beats at low speed. The videos are meant to just show ideas for the drum hobby. I'm glad you can see the variations in the martillo theme which is the inspiration for all of it. The key is to have fun with the bongos as a hobby (for me), and not to be so serious like you are going to a rehearsal for Santana, unless that's what you want to do. Thanks for giving me some ideas.
I actually enjoy this very much I thought I was doing pretty good also using the table here as a bingo ... ... :-));) thank you for showing me and showing me how to do it right ...
I'm sure you're doing fine, Sir. These videos are only abstract ideas and definitely nothing technically efficient. There are lots of great players on YT who show what drums can really do. I try not to watch too many of them because I only get disappointed that I can't emulate the same. In the end, I can only play within my own limits, so I must learn to play my own way and accept it. Keeping it in the hobby context seems to work best to keep my little self esteem from getting butt hurt. haha
Congas have a bigger stage presence and of course, larger sound, so they are seen more often in a rock venue. However, in the small confines of my room, the bongos do just fine.
Pretty cool! When I close my eyes, it sounds like more than just two drums. I can't try this at home though. My lack of rhythm is so severe that there's probably a medical name for it. ;)
I like the minimal drumming thing about the bongos. Keep it simple and down to the essentials, but still enjoy the attitude of a BIG kit! Well, from ape to ape, I think we could work on your riddum condition! Most folks do beat on the dashboard of the car when listening to music, or at least tap their feet, or bang on most any flat surface because the beat comes to us naturally like the beat of our heart (waxing poetic). Caveman beat on hollow log to communicate with distant caveman and one day, he decided to make a pattern and thus, the drum beat was born! haha
Very nice. I like the drum kit reference.
creative and expressive!
Amazing
Good tone 4 beginners...
Very beautiful song, man. Thank you. Now I fell like I need to go get a set of bongos. Thank you again, Bongorilao.
Thanks, Sir. Yes, bongos are a miniature set of drums in a small, compact, and portable package. Simple and yet, allows you to enjoy drumming.
BONGO MAN YOU GREW A BEARD ! YOU LOOKED LIKE A LAWYER WITHOUT IT !
I could watch this man's hands forever.

Nice touch. Thanks for share
that was cool bruddah!
This is kind of a strange question. But which is more common in pop/rock, bongos or congas? I seem to hear congas more often than bongos.
Congas have a bigger stage presence and of course, larger sound, so they are seen more often in a rock venue. However, in the small confines of my room, the bongos do just fine.
Excelent! amazing job! thanks a lot! I hope someday play a 5%
Thanks, Sir! Please don't feed my little ego, else it will become a big EGO! Your 5% and my 5% = 10%!
