      hmmm, to be honest: we germans don´t have too much drummig and percussion in our traditional cultural heritage, but during the last century we learned a lot from other cultures and adapted many nice things - due to the modern facilities there has been a great exchange worldwide and i personally love this a lot!
      one of the things i liked, is that after the appearance of the nigerian superstar king sunny adé in german tv in 1983 we had a wave of african bands coming over to germany and i saw countless of them perform live and they were all excellent musicians, singers and dancers...
      and i love the net for providing us with sweet stuff from all around the globe!!!

      I totally agree with you on that one brotha Pablo Figueroa. Drums are like languages. And they speak a language all their own. When we learn to drum we are learning the language of the percussion. Just like a guitar player a keyboard player flute harps so on and so forth. Music itself is a language. Reading notes to play the proper tones. This rumba is rich with history and when playing rumba shares a culture all into itself. I am a djembe drummer it took me 35 years to get where I am and I still have way too much to learn which is the fun part for me every African rhythm I learn and practice is like learning a language of each country of the continent of Africa. Bless brotha man always for sharing this comment

    There is hope for the human species. This is not just three guys hitting some drums and making noise. This is a true dialogue between three different humans beings, with different styles, different perspectives, and surely different backgrounds. But they are able to put all that aside and have a dialogue, listen to each other, respect each other voices and without a doubt, bring some joy to this convulsive world. We could have better societies if we follow examples like this.

      Ami punto de vista y como músico aunque no es mi género lo que tocan si no me equivoco es Dembe un ritmo en sus orígenes Nigerianos pienso que son de ascendencia africano si no como aprendieron esos ritmos lo cual están bien coordinados y de eso se trata el ritmo del Dembe solo son percusiones y la verdad que bien se escucha 👍🙏🙏

    Now, @ my 69-yrs, I'll take my djembe & doumbek to so-called Drum Circles in SW FL, & it's all bang bang bang. Sighhh.
    Folks here think an expensive drum makes it's "magic" just sitting between their legs. Nope, it's one's hands, heart, & ears that combines to cause it. Like with these fine young men!! Gracie'
