Extraordinary talent hidden in the playing of those instruments. (I’m paused half way through for the moment). I love your presentation style too. Subbed. Thank you. Cheers. Lee
Thank you for your kind comment! Glad you are enjoying the video and really appreciate you subscribing. All the best and see you in next week's video :)
@@PeteGalea seen the rest. I used to do a lot of juggling years ago including passing fire and knives with another juggler, but I think the polyrhythms above 2/3 and 3/4 are more difficult than juggling! The “balls on string” look to add yet more complexity too. Great fun. Thanks again. Lee
I usually skip intros and listen to informative videos at 2x speed to get anything out of things on UA-cam. But I am so sold I never subscribed so fast XD
man this video is underviewed. You did a fantastic job covering these ideas. Thank you! An extra thought, for any other math nerds out there - what you're looking for in the polyrhythms (i.e. the 2/3 he was using as an example) is the LCM (least common multiple - i.e. where the smallest number where these two numbers are both a factor of a bigger number) of the two numbers - which is nearly always just the product of them (for the low numbers we care about here it's always). This also means that the two rhythms only meet on the last note of the count (6 in the example) and nowhere else - if you're just focusing on thinking of the new number as the number of 'beats' in some stanza (i.e. instead of my usual 'count to four' (4/4) from band class, and doing the '1 e-and-a' thing, I just pretended it was a count to the product (i.e. 1-2-3-4-5-6) out loud shaking out the hands for the beat. It helped me a lot when playing out the two rhythms on my left and right hand, to get a feel for it, since it reduced the decisions at each part of the count - i.e. it's left, right, or just a pause - and will always be only those three except at the end of the count (right on 6 here), which is always both at the same time. Also, slow it wayyy down if you want to learn by this kind of counting lol. The beat is easier to feel fast, but easier to understand slow.
Dang man. I appreciate the effot in the editing and production. The topic and presentation is awesome. I love asalato. Very underrated instrument. I think every percussionist should play them. I play tabla, and even still, asalato make me think of things in a different way.
Brilliant. Love this on so many levels. Introducing me to all the fundamentals to learn on the kashakas (I'm getting hooked on these things!) and delightful polyrhythmic brain food + all the good vibes :) keep it up!
Great video! I have some troubles with polyrhythm but now i start understand how works this and thats great cuz this helps my beatbox practice. Thanks !
@@PeteGalea absolutely! I just bought kashaka and your videos help so much! and as a musician I am also into polyrhythms, so it is a perfect mix :)) thank you!
Fantastic! Would you be interested in some more beginner-friendly Kashaka content? If so let me know and I'll happily post some videos in the coming weeks! Cheers! P
Great video! Really well structured and man you got the technique down with the Kashaka. I enjoyed that you put the body percussion part in as well. Always a good practice for every musician. I remember my piano teacher showing me the 2:3 and it already improved my playing a lot.
Thank you so much for your comment and feedback! I'm glad you enjoyed it and found it interesting, I will do my best to continue to deliver such content and improve on it! All the best with your polyrhythmic journey! 😁
Great stuff, could you explain how to do the offset rhythm in left hand so you get a shuffle rhythm, you played it in another video you did. Do the shake/ arm motion stay the same? and where in the count does the left hand start? 🤩🥁
@@andrebanini hey! Thanks for your question. When I watch myself in the mirror my hand and arm motions remain the exact same.. its just that the left hand is delayed by 3 16th notes.. if I'm correct one hand releases on the 4+, and the other on the 1e after it.. I hope that makes sense and I've understood your question correctly :)
I can't believe I never realised/knew that in 2/3 (or whichever it may be) the 3 portion is actually groups of 2x16ths, and the 2 is actually groups of 3x16ths. Kashaka is such a cool way to physically demonstrate that and I feel like everything I know is backwards 😂 Loved this man keep it up ♥
Yes bro! If I understand your comment correctly that's the same thing I'd been confused about for so long. I thought the "3" side referred to whichever side plays the groupings of 3 and so on and so forth... Always learning! Cheers!!
Great lesson dude i’ve been playing drums for years and probably played all these polyrhythms really not even knowing or understanding what I’m playing I just recently started playing the Kas Kas and also found love for the Irish bones 👍🏻 The only problem I’m running into is every one in the household wants to play polyrhythms over my head with a pan with all the clanking going on 😂
Haha! I know how you feel. Finding the right time to practice can be so challenging when you don't have a suitable space. I'm so glad you enjoyed my video, I'll be posting more every week so I hope to see you around again :) also, I must get myself some Irish bones, they're super cool!! All the best! P
UA-cam recommended me your video after I watched one music video. I dont consider myself musical in any way BUT... you explained the rythmn so easy I actually felt I understood it. Good job! Made the whole thing a lot more interesting being able to grasp what you are doing there. =) I wonder in what (popular) songs such polyrythms are used just for having an example.
Hi! Thanks for your kind comment. I'm really glad that you enjoyed it and got something out of it. As far as popular songs using polyrhythms, I'm not too sure but I know a few which may not be considered popular. Feel free to message me on Instagram at @petegalea and I can send a few over. All the best!
such an awesome video and explanation with so much passion 🙏 would have been great if the sound have been stereo so you could distinguish between right and left hand better with the kashakas. when I walk through our bureau building I always play 3:4 with my footsteps and snipping finger or beating mein chest.
Hi Pete, thanks so much for this. Have been playing asalato for about 4 months now and needed something to spice it up and was glad to have found your vid. I studied tabla very briefly and became familiar with konnakol and as soon as you introduced that to asalato I was able to play things I hadnt been able to yet. Will definitely keep checking your stuff out. I have checked your channel yet, what other instruments do you play? Do you give lessons online?
Hello there! Thanks so much for your comment. As always, I'm so happy to know my videos are helping people learn :) I am a big fan of konnakol and its helped me massively so I try to incorporate it when I can. Generally the drumkit is my main instrument along with percussion, but I play bass and piano for fun, mostly when I'm composing music. And I do give online lessons, should you be interested feel free to message me on Instagram, or you can email me on petegaleadrums@gmail.com. cheers!!
Thanks for the info! Very helpful videos. I’m still looking a set I really like. Can you recommend a reliable maker or company to make quality Kosh Kash?
Glad you like the videos! Thanks for watching. I currently have content on the channel about Kashaka UK and KoshKashMoussa. I am currently editing a new video about another amazing company. Stay tuned 😉
@@PeteGalea Thanks! They have three sizes. I'll be ordering from the US so I want to get it right the first time. Is there a proper sizing method based on hand/finger measurement?
I know the smallest is intended for kids, and in terms of the other 2 I got the medium size.. its probably a safe bet unless you have really beefy hands, then go for the larger size. Perhaps consider emailing the seller Jon, he's very helpful. I hope that helps!
Many dozens of teachers of different disciplines, as well as everyone I've played with and worked with over the years. Tying that all together is a lot of curiosity and enjoyment. I learn a lot about music through life, and vice versa. Thanks.
It's a weird one at first, particularly on Kashaka from the perspective of feel.. main thing is to be feeling triplets or quintuplets and move from there. Does that make sense? Thanks for your comment!
This was a cool video - 2 against 3 has always been a rhythm that interests me. I enjoyed hearing the others. You explained things well and the instrument is cool too! I wanted to offer a constructive note about your intro: the small jokes were good, as well as the editing. But I became frustrated as a viewer because you used phrases like 'we're going to jump right in' or 'let's just start' and then you didn't start playing anything. You kept explaining things or bringing up a new topic. Especially since the rhythms, instruments, and demonstrations were so interesting, my advice would be: don't bury the fun part. Just get into it, particularly if you say something like 'ok let's go!'
Glad you enjoyed it and got something out of the video. I appreciate your feedback too, I'll certainly keep it in mind for my next videos in the coming weeks. I hope you'll check those out too. All the best!

Thanks so much for your kind comment, I'm glad you are enjoying!! And I agree, asalato is totally unique in many ways and helps you understand rhythm in a new way. Cheers!

Glad you dig it! Cheers
what phrase is used for three on four?
You can use TA KI TA for 3, and TA KA DI MI for 4. Is that what you mean?
Сделать непонятный хаус , который невозможно слышать-это легко. А вот приятную мелодию из подручных средств это искусство.. Приятное видео, спасибо
Cheers :)
Can you tell me where you got your kashaka? All the ones on Amazon have bad reviews saying they broke in the first few minutes of use.
Kashaka UK :) I've had the Pro Clear model for a couple years now and they're still going strong after hundreds of hours of playing.
@@PeteGalea Thanks! They have three sizes. I'll be ordering from the US so I want to get it right the first time. Is there a proper sizing method based on hand/finger measurement?

What are the dimensions pf the pods and the string length please?
@@catalincazacu3319 shakers are (I think) 45mm or so, and for the string length I have a whole video on that, feel free to check it out. Thanks.
muito bom ISSO
Where is a good place online to buy these?
Asalato Sampa, kashaka UK, koshkashmoussa, asaratopanman, okume percussion, etc :)
Where did you learn music from?
Many dozens of teachers of different disciplines, as well as everyone I've played with and worked with over the years. Tying that all together is a lot of curiosity and enjoyment. I learn a lot about music through life, and vice versa. Thanks.

Something made of wood is durable not plastics. Or at least the orignal Kashaka's are made of a durable natural material.
They're originally made from gourds from the Swawa tree. This material is not durable at all without being treated, and cracks relatively easily.
