  • Feeling Funky today!!!
    In this video I demonstrate 12 different Funk variations on Congas you can try in a simple pocket Drum pattern... Congas are notoriously known to only stick to Latin rhythms, but it's a very versatile instrument that can actually be used on so many genres and add an enormous amount of flavor and feel.
    I hope y'all enjoy this one. Tell me what you think...

    Excellent. A great example of how you can take a simple rhythm, make slight changes, and make it sound so much different. But, you the master, make it look sooo easy. It's those little things :)

      Do you know in which(?) videos i could find these 4 funk patterns ? I only know one of your videos with a funk pattern ... In fact i'd like you to explain each pattern . But if i have to choose , maybe the 3th , 4th and 10th . I'm gonna try to see what you do on each pattern . I listen to a lot of funk music and dance music . I like to find patterns i don't know in these tracks and try to play percussions during the music . It makes me feel happy ! I own three congas LP Galaxy . Gorgeous !! I like your videos . The last i worked was Guaguanco Matanzas on 3 congas . Great ! Go on Eric ! I need your videos !

    Question. I come from a drumset and rudimental marching background and play conga with various bands, but never with a Latin band (just because there's none around my area). I know a basic tumbao, and that's about it when it comes to traditional patterns. I've made up some patterns using slap, heel, tip, doubles etc and sometimes incorporate rudiments. I have this weird feeling like what I'm playing isn't "real" conga. Are made up patterns legitimate in the eyes of the masters? Does it matter? side note: I'm not from Latin America and didn't grow up listening to Latin music so I'm learning from an outsider's perspective traveling backward to the root if that makes sense. Anyways, been watching you for a while and enjoy your vids man!
