There are so many Wula Drums to choose from, it can be hard to pick. Michael Markus, the president of Wula Drum, explains how to choose a djembe.
Some tips:
- Don't choose exclusively by the pitch of the djembe, because the djembe can always be tuned
- Choose a weight that works for you - are you walking around a lot with the djembe, or just using it at home?
The music for this album is traditional, "old school" Bambara-based djembe music. These arrangements were put together by master drummer Aruna Sidibe. He plays and is joined by his students and other musicians. The style is noticeably different than the one played by younger drummers or the "young gun" arrangements, the style currently favored in Bamako, for example.
