Yshai Afterman frame drum solo

[@romulo-mello]

Your rhythm is insane. Complete control, transcendental music. Incredible how one hears many voices simultaneously in your playing

[@Poetstream]

I hear the flutter of moth wings and the the throbbing heart of an artist here. You are a frame drum mystic, Yshai!

[@TheDrumChannel]

[@taurotar]

You are clearly technically proficient but what struck me most about your playing is how soulful & heart pulse voicings you have... you made it sing, very nice

[@whoddaya]

An epic, epic masterpiece. I cannot believe what I am looking at. It's like you "care" about the sound, the drum, the everything. May the world be filled with people like you!

[@muberraselcuk6402]

Thank you so much! deeply appreciated

[@katiadrummond7559]

Amoooo ❤

[@synesthetica]

Wow! Great performance and great sound. What was the position of the microphones for this recording? I'm having trouble getting a nice framedrum recording. I've been experimenting with two condenser mics, one in front and one at the bac, both at an angle, aiming insid towards the rim, both a bit more than half a meter away. This gave me the best result, but I'm still not happy. The recoding lacks overtones and the ring and sharpness you hear while playing it. Thanx!

[@BloodMoonASMR]

For some reason this is what I hear when I'm trying to join a fast-moving highway or roundabout.

[@daveargall3454]

Inspiring playing! Can you tell me what foot jingle you are playing please? It's just right for what was happening on the drum...

[@yafterman]

if i remember correctly im playing an indian ankle bell used for katak dancing

[@swordsoffire2212]

Hi Yshai. What drum is it and where did you get it? :) Thank you.

[@gliuto]

***** Ehm, sorry to get on your conversation, but that's not a Bendir. The main feature of the Bendir (which by the way is Moroccan) is that it has a string (or two or three) made of skin or whatever that makes it resonate with a buzz like a snare drum (well... not actually like a snare drum, but it's to give you the idea). If you search for "Bendir" on google you'll find lots of information abut it. Cheers

[@yafterman]

Pier Bianco you are right but also ***** is right. In Morocco the Bendir refers to the upright drum with the snare strings. In turkey, however, bendir refers to a large frame drum such as played in the video...

[@gliuto]

Oh, I didn`t know that... perhaps I should've made a better research myself as well!! Well, in this case, my apologies to ***** ! and thank you for the information. Cheers

+Reem Hilal Haha! thank you for the compliment!
