That is a great sounding drum. I just bought a toca darbuka because it will help with my Belly Dance technique. But they don't sound as lovely as that. Nor do the men playing them look as handsome as this guy, haha :)
our friend use next rythems and those rythems are turkish,it begins like,dum teke dum tek and then dum tek tek,it is a song rythem from turkish ciftetelli,you can play that song and you will find the rythems what he use and one thing ,he will never tell you guys ,he wants to sell his darbuka,if you want better sound from darbuka,use leather skin,leather skin gives more better sound...google youtube with leather skin darbuka and you will hear the sounds...
I'm from Indonesia but i learn about arabic music, and i though darbuka has an interesting sound. i just bought a darbuka but i don't know how to playing than i show ur link it's amazing easy to understand. good luck and Thankyou
I am having trouble with my teks, is it ok to use middle and ring finger? Or could I possibly use both fingers and eventually just stop using my middle finger?
Best lessons on youtube, and the website has the best online. I can't wait for my darbuka to come in the mail. Once i learn on that one i am definitely buying one from arabinstruments
That was fenomenal! Can you tell me please the names of the other rhythms? I only know beledi, it is what you have played first, isn't it? Great, inspiring video! Thank you!:)
