jeff hamilton!
such immense personality in his playing it's not just mere swing.
his mighty solos are so much to understand, much more to decipher.
always something new with every relisten that i have come to believe
he has very swing-o-logical reasons for every stroke he sheds or withholds.
peter erksine is another jazz wow but he's too groovy!
so much vocab in his delivery, so much power.
very very pronounced but slightly too linear for my liking.
i somehow prefer the jazz that throws you off.
no matter, still a jazz giant.
friendly travellers live
they met, and as they travelled they played.
backpack busking, someday i might just do it.
tal wilkenfeld was only 21 and a 3 year old bassist in this video.
it's like these prodigies have 2 decades headstart or something.
a ministry place for cell and small groups,
i'm still getting response (email, youtube) from all over the world since i started this djembe for worship project in 2008 so do send me a second email if i fail to reply your first.
i appreciate the goodwill but due to paypal issues i'm afraid i can't take donation or money order. you can however engage me to teach in your church or organization, no matter where you are from.
FAQ
what size?
it really depends on what you're using it for. i would recommend 10", which serves up to 25 pax in a controlled environment, if you need to bring it around often. a 12" will have more bass and overtones, and can reach up to 35 pax.
which type?
the traditional wood body, animal skin and rope tuning gives a more ethnic tone. it's also deeper more mellow. it's more susceptible to humidity and rope tuning doesn't last as long as the modern makes' lug tuning. your best bet is to try them out, see which best suits where you are and the type of music you play.
your methods are non trad. do you have your own schemes?
what i do with the djembe is totally unorthodox, so there is no official way to play or write the music. but essentially, i do everything based on 16th notes, and use mostly
Bass | touch | Open tone | Closed (harmonic) tone
also.
my personal portfolio has moved.
