Almost 30 years ago I was the vocalist of a 5 piece rock band. Our drummer had been in school band as a percussionist for years and knew more music theory than the rest of us put together. One day he brought some African drums and assigned each of us a specific rhythm to play. That was, by far, the most fun I ever had playing with the band. And I still remember my rhythm to this day, because there were spoken sounds to describe it. It was for a medium-sized drum and the rhythm was, "GOON! goto-goto GOON! Pa-tah." GOON was like a kick, given in center of drum with the heel of the palm. The rest were four finger strikes at drum's edge.

It’s also makes it clear why the modern Afro pop is so cool, they’re blending this very old stuff with electronic instruments and minimalism.

I know this is far from being one of your more popular videos but it is one of the most unique and inspiring videos I've found on the subject of drum machines on youtube. It's not about showcasing what you or the instrument can do as it is about trying to find a new musical ground for inspiration and inovation. I know that probably the result was not outstanding but of course it was the result of just two pages of a thick book.. there are endless possibilities there!

Hey, you can program the basic beat as a 1 bar pattern, and then hit shift+arrow it will extend and copy everything onto the second bar. Obviously, you can program whatever variations you want after that. Repeat the command and it will extend the pattern to four bars. Press both arrow keys and the sequencer will page through the bars as it plays. This function is toggled off by pressing both arrows again.

Hey Liam. This is a very useful and much enjoyed video. Do you by any chance know of any book that explains or simply has polyrhythms from a „drummachine programing“ perspective-point of view BUT before you say „isn`t this what i am doing here? I will say,,, from the perspective of someone who 1) is not a drummer 2) can`t read notes like you do in this video. More like (example in a 16 step sequence) „Instrument A on 1 4 and 7 , Instrument B on 2+5 but only 7 steps long pattern „ etc etc , don`t know if what i am trying to say come through but i hope you get me ?

Great video, but just a quick note while this is "traditional" music none of it is actually "ancient" much if not all of it is contemporary, performance practice and modifications happen constantly in west african drumming. Western scholars like to codify things into "this is how it is and always will be" but its not really true. Gahu which I think is in that book is a pretty modern rhythm/style I think 1950s or 1960s, its name literally means Airplane and the dance usually mocks Europeans. Most of the Ghanaian stuff that has 3-2 clave or rhumba clave are rhythms composed after latin music hit Africa.

"the impact that black culture has had on america" LOLLLL virtually everything that america has had to offer for the past 70 years has been rooted in african-american artistic innovation or appropriation of african music (big idea in the 80s, talking heads and paul simon big examples). blues, rocknroll, jazz, soul, rnb, house, techno etc etc. America's identity has been culled from the fruits of blackness. kids who have grown up in the internet age do not even realize 'internet speak' is often times literally just normalized AAVE. you have a generation of kids mimicking black culture without having any sense of their being a direct source other than the internet. HISTORY REPEATS over and over, coolness gets packaged, standardized and commodified
