wow the haitians do have the exact same rythm like the tribe of the Ewe‘s (Ghana, Togo and Benin). And also the drumming is quite similar to our tribe, they also use „Kpanlogo“ as we call it. Greetings from an ghanaian ewe 🇬🇭
Joshua you do not ķnow that Haiti is a little Africa in the middle of the American Continent. We are black as you are. Our grandparents came from 39 africans states and different tribes. We do not need a DNA to identify ourselves and we do not care about the states we came from. Only one thing. We are black . Descendant of slaves from Africa. We are Africans born in america in a place call HAITI. We are more African than you are overthere. Learn your The African trade history.
@@Joshua-pn7re because we cherish the culture normally an we know more about africa than you do. This african way in Haiti and proud to be africans Whatever we do, come from that continent. All our dance moves and drums came from there with just a little change. We do not need to travel ta africa to know about it because ours grandparents have left the documentary as a reminder of where we from. We are children of traitre des noirs. We know our histories and stories but the tribes' names. But we do not care. J We jus know that we are Africans not because we are blacks but also we live the african ways We night be from the same tribe.. in Haiti we do not need DNA, when you are black you are definitely africans descents and we embrace you as a family. You should not have to ask me that question if you have known your history. In the Americas, slavery started in HAITI. And it stopped in haiti. This country was the pathway to stopping the TRADE.

Save our real culture! tank you so much. we are kombit people, rara people,never forget that! to be afraid of it; is to be afraid of yourself or to lose yourself. Embrace our real culture than we shall rise again. Let's not pretend we're european this is our true culture...we are not catholics and we don't play guitars...we are drum people...
If my grandmothers were still alive, they would have shown me how to dance Igbo. This is one of the song off these drummer Igbo is one of our cultural dance. We have Congo Yanvaloo, Nago, Arada, Rumba, KATA, JUMBA, BANDA, PETRO. SNEAK, rRara, Gouyad and many many more. Now from all these rythmes we have invented THE COMPAS OR KOMPA OR COMPA OR KONPA ( whatever way you want to pronounce the word ""COMPAS" Fr
i love it ,its part of our culture,when we haitians beat our drums people say is evil its bad but all around the caribbean people beat on drums.from cuba to puerto rico and ect.its a beautiful part of our culture.i personaly enjoy the sounds of drums.
@@OragansDAristilde_TheChristian no they’re not. They are exactly what they are. Traditional Vodou drums used in Vodou. Nothing about it is coming from Christianity.
They start with Yanvalou, then Ibo, then Kongo. These are mostly the rada drums, the Manman (lead), the boula (or Katabu) playing the ups like the kagan, then the segon on the congas (often played on a carved drum with a bowed stick called agida), and the painted drums are Kongo drums, but here are played as the boss part (like the tamalin). The first song with the drums is the traditional invocation to Papa Legba.
From the left, boula (third drum), segon (second drum), ogan (bell), manman (lead drum), and bas (bass drums). The manman does the fancy stuff, the segon plays a counterpoint to the manman, the boula, ogan, and bas provide the foundation.
I'm a haitian drummer those guys are playing real haitian folkloric drums when they started they played "yanvalou Fran" they yanvalou changed after because even it's yanvalou the "manman" doesn't do the same thing anymore and then they play "Parigol" then they played "Ibo" and then "Kongo", but I have to mention that Ibo is one of many king and the Kongo as well
Thanks for the knowledge, James! You sure know a lot about a whole bunch of different styles of music! :) I learned this piece with a few drummer friends of mine. We were able to learn the rhythms from the video, but it was really helpful to have someone like you to inform us of the names of the rhythms and the instruments. Thanks!
Well. Thanks a great lot. This is good and real music from my Haiti. Very traditionnal and well performed by those men. They have the same repertory than Mambo Lucienne, our tradtionnal and natiional vodou singer. Very good job, very good music, very good job, very good spirit, very good man (?) Hahahaha! Might be!
That is true In some rituals ,they use word samba, samba is family name in some parts of Angola and Congo region. In kimbundu one of Angola language (bantu ) samba means courtisan.
@@thebridge5483 Parts of D.R.Congo,R.Congo, Angola and Gabon were part of the Kongo kingdom. So, it would be natural to have both Congo and Angola mixtures.
En Cuba los haitianos y descendientes hacen esa misma musica .eso demuestra que en cuba se toca (rasin haitien musik)aunque estos del video son haitianos.viva la cultura haitiana y cubana Ayibobo
Love and feeling, I would love to attend this jamm, I didn't know that this was happening so close to me, greetings from an Afro Cubano in love with our music. If anyone out there can give me a phone number or a web site I will remain thankful.
Do I know you? Glad you liked the video. Please send me your mailing address with full name and birthday so I can send to you a card and just stay in touch. Remember to spell out the month you were born in.
Yes ibo,congo,and a little yanvalou.But the fast kind you dance when you snake bellydance your tummy and spin like drunk,foot specially work hard in these dance in the hips for the ladies and use a lot the arm and hand for expression and face. I miss my folklore work out when can I found their cd to practice.
can you not hear the traditions speak and to connections to Ghana and Benin a lot of which has been persevered in Haiti whether it Yanvalou, Parigol, Zepol, Mahi or Fla and kongo.
This is downright awesome! I would love to know which pieces these are, or which part of the rite they are from. As far as I know this is the RADA batterie, so these would probably be from the Rada ceremony. Anyone care to enlighten me? Leo
@mkl163 why you say monster?this is why poeple who dont understand voodoo thinks its evil,why cant it just be a powerful being,why do you think a powerful spirit has to be a monster?please explain.because it seems to me poeple who are superstitious thinks everything spiritual is monsters or evil
People outside the culture, usually fueled by a Judeo Christian context, are told that ANYTHING that is not specifically from God in a Christian perspective with a biblical or church foundation, is from the devil. It is evil. It is a very narrow and ignorant perspective. I have found my way into this culture through the drum. It has shown me the beauty and complexity of the culture.
Bonjour, je travaille sur des chants d'origine africaine et afro-carribeenne, et souhaiterais travailler sur ce chant "Sai mambo," que jouent ce groupe dans la video que vous avez mise sur youtube. Mais avec les percussions, il est quasiment impossible de reconnaitre les paroles, connaissez vous un autre enregistrement de ce chant ou les paroles sont plus audibles? Merci d'avance, Benoit
PETRO: Haiti, Petro is a very POWERFUL drum beat that can transform a BLACK person into a very POWERFUL monster and capable of distroying a whole City in one night. But only if you have African blood in your veins. Mostly, PETRO is heard at midnight. Choose not to go out, please. At midnight PETRO drum beat means DANGER.When you hear PETRO drum beat 5 miles away.it is 500 feet closer.Then you may be surrounded by BIZANGO (Chanpwel) ZANGBETO, Benin, Africa ;and you're gonna loose yr mind soon.
Does anyone know the names of these rhythms or the instruments that are being played? Any additional info would be really helpful! This music is amazing.
I am proud to say that I had gone back to Miami and met these musicians. I am even more honored to know that they’ve heard about me and the TV series. We are producing “Toussaint Saga of a Revolution”and that they want to be a part of this project. Thank you, Rara Lakay.
They did three different rhythms, all associated with Vodou ceremonies. The first are Yanvalou/Mahi. They do those for Legba and Rada lwa vodoun. The second rhythm is Kongo. And finally the last, Petro. These are the order they go in during Vodou ceremonies as well.

The drums are christian the vodou ain't
@@OragansDAristilde_TheChristianwhat are you even talking about
@@doug8761
The drums are holy and intrinsically Christian but could be used for the wrong reasons like vodoun
@@OragansDAristilde_TheChristian no they’re not. They are exactly what they are. Traditional Vodou drums used in Vodou. Nothing about it is coming from Christianity.

What I'm saying is vodou is bad but the drums are good but could be used for something bad like vodou
@pasghana I love that my Haitian culture is still so close to the African culture.

I can make the search for and
I can make the search for you,but right now I don't know a book that talks about all of them probably l'll try to guide you on that

The rhythms are as follows; Rada (Yanvalou) followed by Petro and then Kongo...
Thanks I really wanted to know. I want to be able to identify the beat(rhythm) when I hear them
It's ARADA DANCE. NOT RADA.
@@mariettaguest2796 Arada is a dance but Rada is the nation of drum rhythms which Yanvalou falls under

Does anyone know the names of these rhythms or the instruments that are being played? Any additional info would be really helpful! This music is amazing.
Not bad, but there are more complicated parts to these rhythms that they are not playing.
I’m a Haitian filmmaker. How can I get in touch with this group?
They are rara lakay from Miami FL. They have a few videos on RUclips where they play live throughout the street of little Haiti (now magic City).
I am proud to say that I had gone back to Miami and met these musicians. I am even more honored to know that they’ve heard about me and the TV series. We are producing “Toussaint Saga of a Revolution”and that they want to be a part of this project. Thank you, Rara Lakay.
What kind of drums are they playing?
HAITIAN are mixed from pretty much 21 nation in Africa now. We just have it in us. As HAITIAN, we never know the drums, it's sounds to us.
now I know where the drum licks for freebird came from
Salsa haitiana
Name of the instruments?
Thanks for the video
funny, i know all those guys, lol
what kind of this rythm'? how is called?
