Listen to the Sample Here!

Variations on the African Bembe:
Grooves from Africa, specifically Madagascar and Nigeria. Moderate tempos, punchy kicks, mid range to dead snare tunings, bright hi hats, dark cymbals!
Recorded with vintage Slingerland drums and Zildjian cymbals.

Recorded through Nashville’s own CAPI VP26 & VP28 preamps, AEA R84 for mono overhead, Sennheiser 441 on snare, EV RE20 on kick… these drums pack a punch!!
