The whole same shit!😉 I actually think that I’m found the best teacher from who I really want to learn😍 my only one problem is that I have the “aluminum” Darbuka with straight borders. But I couldn’t find anything in terms of tutorials for that kind of Darbuka.. I mean, the playing basics should be the same, But the fine-tuning details are different -I realized it when I was testing this kind of “doumbek” in comparison to one of mine… Even though the playing feeling is also different & sound, so I’ve definitely decided to buy another one))) and now I’m really happy to find the best tutorial on youtube😍
I don't know if many women take up the doumbek/darbuka, but, at 53, I hate that I am just now discovering it. Where has it been all the years of my life? Good thing we're never too old to learn something new, right? Thank you, young man for posting these lessons. You are an awesome teacher. I must be improving too, because the cats have stopped running away when I pick up the drum. When I have mastered the rhythm in this first lesson, I'll definitely move on to the next lesson... and the next lesson... and the next. This instrument is a joy... and so is your teaching. You are a gift. Again, thank you.
@@Peter-tg8kh Thanks for asking. I'm not fast yet, but my accuracy and muscle memory are much improved. I will worry about doing it well before doing it quickly. :)
I am 56 yrs old, wanted to learn this instrument from long, love the way you teach, thank you, I will practice for a week...Doum Ka Tek Ka Doum Ka Slap😊, God bless you
Yeah agreed - seen all the videos. He gives all the small aspects like "take a week" "look in the mirror" "your finger will be weak, make a sound anyway" These reassurances are needed for beginners! Thanks Malik Team
it's incredible how well he explained all the components. He perfectly explained everything you need to know / learn as a beginner ... incredible !!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!

Thank you! Fantastic tutorial. I’ve been struggling with my “ka” strike for a while, but your explanations are so clear and detailed, I’m finally able to correct my problem. Now I can actually focus on playing 😁😁😁😁👍👍👍👍
This is the best intro to darbuka I’ve seen. This is the lesson plan I’ll be following. Thank you for taking time to explain even the most basic fundamentals of this great instrument! 👍🙏

You would be a very successful Russel Brand impersonator! You sound so much like him and your mannerisms are spot on. 😆 Love your videos❤ Excellent instruction!
Hi Malik! This is an amazing tutorial. 🙏👏 I can't wait to get my barbuka to practice. Does the size of darbuka matter ? I ordered 11 inches (medium size). Your website link doesn't work. 😉
