Here's just a quick break down of one of the variations of Funk I do on Two Congas...
This variation in particular is pretty fun to do simply because of the little elements like ghost notes that are involved to making the pattern drive.
I hope y'all enjoy.

This funk pattern has literally become my foundational pattern for any Funk that I've now play. It is so encompassing, and I can take different pieces of it and crate different rhythms off of a particular section. Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge Eric.

Of all the videos I've watched, yours are the most instructionally clearest
Love it. Really get a lot from your video. I’ve been playing for just two years - now 59 years old! My back made me give up tap dancing, so now I’m tapping with my hands 👊🏻
This was one of the very first Funk grooves that I learned, and have since been able to modify and create off of it. It's a nice base to work from. Thank you Eric for posting you're much appreciated!
So enjoying these videos, Eric. I’m almost 61 and took up hand drums and percussion at 57. Took lessons for about three years and feel like I’m getting fairly good for someone who doesn’t play every day.
I’ve been incorporating tap into my
Rhythm since I was a former professional dancer. I love all things percussion and I would love just one lesson from you!
wow so i am not the only oldie here. I am 62 haha. is so much fun
Revisiting these videos again. So cool to adapt your pattern from 2 to 3 and then 4 congas... wirh repetitions... occaissionally putting small variations on the count of four before starting again.
Gracias Eric!
The ghosting just makes this something really special. Thanks Eric :-) Played it out today.....too much fun & a little tricky.
Love your videos, my man. Your playing abilities are awesome and equally is your personality! You've redefined "COOL"!!!
More awesomeness from a true Conguero. Saludos desde Inglaterra. I run a drum circle at local psych ward and the healing power of the drum is astounding.
Keep smashing the grooves hermano. Mil gracias!!!
Love love this since I am into funk, chillout lounge, deep house, house, deep house lounge, latin hip hop so this worked great man I can add my crazy style to this pattern yeah groove out chill relax I am there!
I’ve checked a lot of “beginner conga” stuff. Yours suits me best. Thanks. Been playing kit for decades, now want to hand drum..nice...
Hi Eric , great tutorials and awesome playing !!! Thank you !!
Great video man! straight to the point, no bs, easy to understand and the most important sounds so good!
Great lesson again!
Eric, im about ten yrs behind on all this wonderful info. Hopefully ill make it to 70 so i can get all this cool stuff your showing us down. Love to ya brother
Thanks man!
Love this groove!
Very nice Eric , I will include this funky of your's to my Akai mpc finger conga drumming. Well done
Gotta love those patterns.... flawless bro...
Wow, thank you so much.I learn so much from your video's. I'm 63 years old and always loved playing percussion but had not much oppertunity to practice.Now my kids are bigger so have a little more time to practice.So once again thank you so much you explain it so cool.!!!! Big hello from France.
I was looking for Breakdown of this Rhythm!
Thank U Eric "Maestro" Perez!
Haha Thank you!!
Man.Get to Adonis Panter Calderón sólo y Adonis Panter Calderón y los Calderones.
Adonis Panter Calderón is the king of the ritmo.
Excelente tutorial maestro, una sugerencia sería bueno que al final sonara una base de fondo y así aplicar el ritmo o patrón aprendido en el video
This is great! Very clear demonstration. Thank you!
DUDE! I applied that rythm today, and I shined... love u brah Suscribed
Dope Dope Dope ! Man someone just game me a cabasa a set of congas and another small drums on a stand that I'm unaware of. I am ever so grateful I'm gonna repay them in MASTERY! Thanks 4 this video Hermano
Gracias Maestro, Eric, soy principiante y a sido un placer comensar con sus consejos, aunque soy una mujer madura, Epero aprender es mi meta 💃🏻🌺🙏🏼
Love the way you sound, very cool. Is there any chance you could include musical notes at some point in the video?
Awesome work Bro, as always well done and explained.
Thanks bro!
Great groove and sound! Thanks.
hi Eric !! i'm french living in south near Marseille!! enjoy so much your video.. very clear!! love play funky groove on Congas.. ! what about your drums? you prefere MEinl than LP? thank's bro!
A really cool groove that would be great for you to break down is the groove starting at :59 on Ghana Spice by Candido. I have to admit, the more I play, I gravitate to more African rhythms vs tumbaos. Perhaps a series for conga players interested in music that is not heavily rooted in Latin Jazz but rather the conga playing heard in jazz from the 60’s/70’s ( Herbie, Miles, etc) or African music like Fela, and other forms of music that explore the African side of conga playing?
Nice funky sound! Thanks!
Thanks! You are incredible! I love allmost all your videos! Grettings from Argentina!
YES!!!! Gotta love it!! You're killin' it vato! Great instruction.
Yeah man, that sounds really good! I gotta get that one down.
Hi Eric! You are awesome. I got Congo’s from my kids last year,2020,
I’m female 62 years old. God has blessed me with rhythm. I’m really interested in learning. I’ll be back. I did subscribe to your channel
Hey man, thanks so much for what you do. I love you're persut. I was wondering if you've ever studied African rhythms. I know it varies, it's a huge continent, but I was wondering if there are hooks or repeated rhythms. Like, I've noticed the accent on three a lot and some tribes love using several polyrhythms between individuals. Anything you've picked up on, I would love to hear. Thanks again!
You bro are a great teacher. I subscribed.. Like that groove too. 👍
I liked the video before even watching. That's how much I care.
Haha that’s Love right there!
Hola Maestro te saludo desde Lima Peru, quisiera saber q toque me recomiendas estoy fusionando Metal con salsa y afro sería algo asi como santana pero mas fuerte gracias
Hello Eric , I’m new to your channel. This is a cool rythym , sounds like Mozambique . I started playing congas again because I want to improve in what I already know . I’m still a beginner and hope your videos can help me . This one is good 👍🏼
Hi Eric, great lesson, i love it. Could you please give me a hint how to count this groove. Thanks
Hi thanks for doing tutorials video
For two congas you are the best keep going.👍🏼👍🏼
Nice sound of the congas.
I'm loving it ❤
Thank you. And thank you for the Raul Rekow pattern!!!!
First time visitor and glad I stopped by. Very cool tutort and very user friendly. I’ll be back for more. Hasta luego. ~ Mark
Greetings Eric, a tasty little rhythm indeed. Love it. Your Meinls sound truly amazing. Cheers!
awesome video, man! thank you so much! the 2nd open on the tumba and the ghost sounds are kiling me, but I'll get there!
Hello, I loved your video, thank you! Can you please give us an example of a song that this rhythm can go along with? Thank you!
I like your teaching technique...You are easy to follow along with.
nice groove (sabrosa), I find that it would probably work best if there is no drummer giving that you are doing a basic funk kit groove, kick and snare align with your major beats, a basic tumbao usually works best in my opinion when doing funk, of course ultimately it's the band leader who will decide what he/she likes best, thanks for the post
hey man! thanks for the video and excellent lecture, I'm playing conga for few months, but first wont to ask you about congas..have some Stagg 10'' and 11''..and it's very hard to find nice sound and slap is very tight in place...etc.., I have some experience with drum set..played for ten years in blues band so it's not that I hit drum for first time, and I know that drums dont make drummer but just a question : do I need to get better congas for serious playing..haw much difference does it make?
RUclips needs to add a love button! Awesome❣️
You are the Best teacher on percussion ever Thanks alot
Can you tell the size of the congas you are playing?
By the way, great lesson.
Brother Eric,
Totally awesome man,
Keep it up.
Love your instructional ways.
Sincerely Mr. Rodriguez.
The ghost notes are what keep me coming back to congas year after year
Are you using microphone to record the congas sound??? The touch in the cuero Sound perfect
Yes I am! I’m using Shure SM137’s
muy buen ritmo, eric! con aires "hiphoperos" :D
sigue compartiendo material para dos tambores! muchos solo tenemos dos congas
t felicito! sigue asi!
thats a good rhythm eric , thanks
Sweet, you are the Groove Master baby...godspeed.
Yessss the video I've been waiting for.👍 I wanna learn the rythm to that song by Joe Cocker "Feelin Alright"
Manuel, I friend of mine always has me show him that song. Trick is, it is one of those songs that alot of other instruments don't always play the rhythm that spot on.
I play a lot of duos with just myself and a guitar player. Without the keys, the feel is often interpreted very differently! Haha
So, once you think you have it, and they call it out. Know the part that you have in your head, but be flexible to line it up with whatever bastardization they have done to it...not everyone is Steve Winwood or Leon Russell (keys)
Any funk songs that uses congas as a main percussion that you can recommend me?
Keep the vids coming 🔊
New sub, New owner of congas ! I like playing to funk Marvin Gay is great to jam to.
funky for sure brother! as usual. Thanks
Great sound from Meinl. What series are they from?
Hola eric .saludos desde Argentina. Lo podras graficar este patron ritmico. En cada conga , los abiertos y slap ? Gracias
Love your videos GOD BLESS 🙏🏻🙂
Nice work! Where did you get that shirt? thanks
Yes, you got to love it 😉
Love the videos glad to see the younger generation pickup this beautiful instrument. You are a good teacher I recommend your videos to others. Check out some of the cats that played funk in the 60’s 70’s. Henry Gibson (Curtis Mayfield percussionist) Alex Acuna, Ralph McDonald many more.
Thank you!!!!! I actually did a video on Ralph last year!!! ruclips.net/video/veocAsJRk08/видео.html
“Crazy” (Lol). I just found your videos and see your a brother in Christ as I am! It gets better and better. I have playing for the Lord for 25 years going on 65years young. God loves congas! and percussion. Most important He loves and saved me.
Drums are really fun. :D
Espero un día poder enseñarte como se toca en Puerto rico... Darte una clase. De afincacion Por. Mest: JOSIAS MACHIN.
Thanks for sharing.
Eric, where do you get all of these cool t-shirts????
Yes, you said in the very beginning: Let's talk about.
It is hard to find the groove at around 1:30.
Pregunta: en qué parte del compás empieza el abierto de tumba?
Natural skin.......The best Sound.....En mi humilde opinion......gracias maestro....esa marcha suena como un ritmo brasileño....suena sabroson.
Did you shout out Ooh Wee?! What a coincidence, the congagroove sounded like Mark Ronsons “Ooh Wee” or am I wrong? Fantastic tutorial. Thank you so much.
Hahahaha Thank you!
Great lesson! And your T-shirt is also cool ;)
hi can you give us the link of a music we can use as background music to practice this?
Dónde puedo conseguir una remera así, como la que tienes puesta???
Sweet little rhythm, thanks. How about a similar little bongo rhythm?
Where are you located and do you teach?
Can I play Rossana of Toto with this pattern?
Muito bom essa levada Funk , você pode colar as partituras ficaria mais fácil para estudar tocar , parabéns excelente goove tamo junto gurerreiro.
That is cool!! Thx!
Great video and very cool conga pattern. Thank you for a very detailed tutorial.
P. S: Can you please make a video 'bout Kizomba pattern? Thanks in advance.
God bless you and your channel. 🎼🎵🎶🪘🙌
Yeah, I got it! Perfect break down,thank you :-)
I love it ❤
Maestro...sto studiando questo funky on congas e noto che gli accenti sono sulla clave di rumba 2-3....molto interessante. Grazie per le tue informazioni. Max.
Very cool...
Buen video Eric 👌 y mucho mejor el subtitulado en español mil aplausos 👏🏆
