I'm a drummer that likes to make beats whilst doing every day activities. I drum on random objects and things I found around the house. I love to see what sounds and beats I can get out of everyday household items.

30 years ago Djembes were all the rage. Same ideas, different animal.

[@RhythmMeThis]

I do enjoy a djembe!

[@johncbuttigieg]

Great work: 'Drum & bass' along with 'Jazz' are my personal favourites here 👍

[@RhythmMeThis]

Thanks man. Those are 2 of my favourites too.. also love the reggae one

[@teegees]

Just listened to the whole thing that was awesome. How would you do: Swing, Bachata, Bossanova, Merengue, and Zouk?

[@RhythmMeThis]

I will definitely do a part 2 at some point and will add these genres to the list. Keep an eye out

[@teegees]

@@RhythmMeThis Yep I subscribed! Maybe add some African beats to the list! Can’t wait!

[@RhythmMeThis]

Thanks for the sub!

[@Raybee100]

So cool! B-) I have a whole vibe going on here in my room!!

[@RhythmMeThis]

Thanks! Loads more cajon videos up on my channel too!

[@Fl4ppers]

Never heard this on a metal track. Would be good for a sort of fusion/tribal breakdown part though.

[@RhythmMeThis]

This would be cool. Kind of like Sepultura or early Incubus!

[@Fl4ppers]

@@RhythmMeThis Exactly. Big Roots fan here.

[@mihaelalapuste9485]

Latian & Hip-Hop is my style. It's just a good beat that's all!😄

[@RhythmMeThis]

Yeah that’s totally my style too! Will be doing another one of these soon with 10 different genres

[@jrr570]

Nice! ❤

[@RhythmMeThis]

Thanks

[@cedzaly]

very much

[@RhythmMeThis]

Thanks

[@teegees]

Very cool. What model Cajon is that? I like the bass. Did you amp it?

[@RhythmMeThis]

Thanks! I’m not sure the exact model as I’ve had it for years. I believe it’s similar to a Meinl woodcraft series, string cajon mahogany. No, it’s not amped up. Just a microphone on the back and some EQ added in post production!

[@teegees]

@@RhythmMeThis I’ve decided to learn it and order the Jam. It’s only 15” tall and not fully stringed. Hopefully it’ll still be able to produce a good kick sound. Yours sounds great.

[@RhythmMeThis]

I do put a small towel in the back which helps dampen the bass sound to give more of a thud. It’s such a fun instrument to play! I may do some tutorials at some point

[@teegees]

@@RhythmMeThis Oh interesting! You mean like a towel covering the hole?

[@RhythmMeThis]

Actually pop the towel inside the cajon. Similar to what you would do with a bass drum to dampen it.

[@Greennoob2]

Are you a leftie or just and open-handed player? You play hats with the left hand and keep time with the right foot? I'm probably reading into it too much. Cajon is cool

[@RhythmMeThis]

I’m a right handed drummer. With the cajon I tend to play 16th notes consistently and then hit the accents on either the snare or the bass. I can see why this would make it look like I’m a lefty. Hope that makes sense!

[@Greennoob2]

@@RhythmMeThis oh cool thank you
