Free Music Notes for Djembe: African Percussions
Free Music Review: Blazing Djembe.
Hit: 3 Stars
While I like certain tracks on this CD, I regularly fast forward others which seem to be Sabar drumming not djembe. What I think is unfortunate is that this CD should showcase distinct rhythms that we know and love from the West African diaspora and not simply concentrate on cranked up soloing. It is very difficult to hear the Dun Dun parts behind the blur of the blazing solos and there is a lack of echauffments so typical of Guinea arrangement niceties. This CD really seems to be missing some traditional songs and vocals which would have definitely enhanced these recordings.
Don't get me wrong some of the solos are utterly sick and you can pick up some chops if you listen to it over and over again while playing along.
