a ministry place for cell and small groups,
missionaries and music 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.

NEW YEAR COUNTDOWN

31. 12. 09


3 sets of popular tunes. personally i think it will be fun!
marine cove's the stretch where mac, long beach and the other restaurants are.

official event writeup:

MaybeFriday is Serene on Vocals, Clarence on Guitar, James on Bass/Keyboard and Shawn on Drums, a quartet of good mates who truly believe that good music and company comes in no expense of one's soul. Infectious and groovy, their timbre is made up of earnest renditions of old school and current pop numbers, which often leave many with the ‘earworm’.

Serene’s potent smoky vocals, Clarence’s lavish strings, James’ intense lines and ivories and Shawn’s in-the-pocket rhythm, some say it revitalizes no matter heard, seen or inhaled. Catch them live from 930pm at Marine Cove East Coast Park, on the last Thursday of the year.

Celebrate with a night of music and love with your friends and loved ones as we usher in the New Year!
