Djembe Kuku Rhythm 1st Accompaniment | African Drums

Okay, we are going to show you the first accompaniment
for Kuku, from Guinea, West Africa for the Djembe. When we say first accompaniment we mean the
higher drum, not the soloist, but the first accompaniment player. There is only four notes, slap, base, and
two tones. First I play slap, base, two tones, but the
slap comes in before the beat. So, if I say five, and six, and seven, and
eight, five and six and seven, and eight. So the base is on the beat, five, six, seven,
eight. A little faster, five, six, seven, eight. It is happy music, so we have to play the
happy tempo, five, six, seven, eight, five, six, one. And that is how we play the first part to
Kuko from Guinea, West Africa..
