I love that one of the first things you say is that speed isn't everything - I completely agree. As you said, melody, tone, flavor, deep knowledge of the clave - all extremely important. That being said, I can appreciate how much time you put into developing your sound and it's impressive to see how fast and tasty you play. Excellent work!
Wow, nice coordination and speed. Man, you make percussion "sound" easy. Its A lotta slow and patient practice. I will quote Giovanni H. "la mano secreta es practic." Thank you for the share.
DMV StandUp! Great videos man! This one in particular has a ton of different pieces for a beginner like me to build-up. Thanks for you commitment to a Percussion Life and sharing your wisdom! I'm promoting your vids to others and liking every video. Peace!
Primero te quiero super felicitar, para mi eres un pedazo de conguero, y todo lo que haces te lo agradesco muchísimo, eres un maquina, te pido solo que hagas algo en español, la mayoria de congueros del mundo hablamos español, gracias, gracias
Daniel T Peace to tune up your drums if you don't mind me answering tighten or loosen the nuts on the side according to the sound you want to get everything should be close to the same sound sometimes people like to have the left side or the right side a little higher or a little lower all depends on how they want to play you can do the same the adjustment doesn't have to be perfect it just has to sound good moisture and heat will slightlychange the tone although neither one will affect the quality of the skin long-term even water damage is okay although they are not waterproof they are water resistant
Hi Eric, Thanks for your Videos! I have one question about your Palladium Congas. Do you also have a 14" Supertumba and if yes, does it also gives many overtones? I have one with many overtones and i think about a new, thicker head, the lp head on it is just 1,5mm thick. I think about a 2,5-3 mm head, what would you say? Thanks a lot and kind regards from Germany.
i have 10" - 11" conga, meinl brand... and i can't get the sound on 10", especially SLAP tone.. ITS so bad, do u have any advice? it's 10" conga is not good, or not in tune or my technique? do u have any 10" conga?? for my refference, thankyouu
Five drums and speed are great!I'm trying to get a sense of how this helps a working conguero /percussionist to get a band gig in any music genre.Small venue stage space,song arrangement and leaving space for a bass player and drum set player all come in to play when looking at the merits of a five conga stage right for the working conga player.Also requires more trips for load in and out lol.....
Thank you. And I do tune differently when I'm out playing but it depends on the gig... Generally I do: Quinto- A, Conga- C, Tumba- B ( i play that to my left) Super Tumba G (to my right) and Second Super Tumba- E... with more ethnic styles I'll sometimes switch things up and tune Quinto- G, Conga- D#, Tumba- C#, Super Tumba- B (right), Cuper Tumba to my left a D#... But its cool on the different melodies you can get when experimenting notes as long as their range isn't so far apart.

Just a little food for thought for the fellow musicians if you can't dance to it you know the rest take your time imagine you dancing or some beautiful girl dancing if you get it right I can promise you you won't have to imagine anymore LOL

Saludos Eric desde Puerto Rico, me gustaría saber cuales eran los tonos de afinación que le distes a las 5 congas en este video. Gracias anticipadas..
How long have you been playing the tumbadoras? Great technique!
Eduardo Avila hey! I hope all is well... I have been playing for a little over 15 years now. And Thanks!
your main conga in your lap which size" is that and which cord do you have it tuned to? thanks
Impressive!
Nice technique! Do you use different tunings for different 5 drum gigs? I usually play 3 but I'm experimenting with 5. Any advice for tunings?
Thank you. And I do tune differently when I'm out playing but it depends on the gig... Generally I do: Quinto- A, Conga- C, Tumba- B ( i play that to my left) Super Tumba G (to my right) and Second Super Tumba- E... with more ethnic styles I'll sometimes switch things up and tune Quinto- G, Conga- D#, Tumba- C#, Super Tumba- B (right), Cuper Tumba to my left a D#...
