Thank you for this fantastic and excellent explanation on Tumbao. Your video Including the block & pedal motivated me to purchase my own and follow along with you in my learning. I have been coming back to this video off and on for about 5 years now. Always a great refresher and motivator. Again, Thank you. Oh any chance you can make a future video with Congas and Bongos playing a Tumbao pattern? Regards.

Not bad for a start. The heel movement with the palm is often confused with the bass, but it's only done with the heel of the hand, for example when you do a roll together with the tips, is more of a technical move (an important one) than a sound. Interesting that the cat doesn't freak out, I had in mind getting a kitten and wondered if it wouldn't freak out when it heard me practicing the congas.

Thanks for the comments. Always room for improvement, right. Cat loves congas hates the trap set!

I've played congas and bongos back when I was teenager (69-76) and going back and forth into many music groups. - Now that I'm in my 60's I'm at the front and I using my percussion skills. I had to find my way back and get into the conga playing routine and here I am starting all over again from scratch. Thanks for the upload! By the way... I've counted 6 sounds that you have used, Your Title Says... 7 Sounds. Don't mind me, but you should have re-titled the segment as... The Most Common Sounds Used In Playing Congas

I was going through my KZbin subscriptions to manage my notifications. I came across your channel that I followed years ago. This was one of the first videos I used to learn to play congas, and now I professionally with salsa bands in Atlanta. I even went to music school to study jazz performance on drumset. Thank you for this video. It alone didn’t bring me to where I am today, but without such an easy to understand tutorial I would have taken much longer to embark on this musical journey. Thank you for what you do!

what footpedal and little percussive thingy are you using?
@kckel693 жыл бұрын
It’s called a Gajate bracket made by LP. You need a bass drum pedal to use it. You can attach a jam block, cowbell or whatever to it. www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/LP388NP--latin-percussion-lp388np-gajate-bracket

As a Djembe player of many years (traditional west african tecnique), this video is a clear way for me to practice hand technique. If i fall back into trying to play Congas with Djembe technique (easy for me to fall back into), i can pull this up and get back on track. Thank you!
@kckel693 жыл бұрын
Djembe technique is definitely different than congas. I’m glad you found this video helpful! If at all possible find a good teacher who can really help you find and tighten up the different sounds used in playing congas! Happy drumming!

The best video lesson I've ever seen
@GrootsieTheDog3 жыл бұрын
I often use the alternating sticking when executing a regular tumbao as well when playing at faster speeds :) This video also inspires a great control exercise - play a basic tumbao with all the slaps, mutes, and open tones but every four bars, without changing the tumbao, change the sticking ONLY. We have a tendency to fall into physical habits as drummers and this mental exercise is great for challenging physical memory :)

Why the paradidlle type hand pattern with double beat by the left hand? There seems to be enough time for doing the same pattern in straigth left/rigth alternation?
@kckel694 жыл бұрын
For me it’s an easier coordination, especially at faster tempos. But it’s fine to play as singles. There are not a lot of right/wrong ways when it comes to sticking. Whatever works for you and feels good! Thanks for comment!
