Loved this video!
Thank you!
What kind of head does this drum have?
This Cooperman Tar has a Remo Renaissance head, which is a synthetic material.
Hi Ken and thank you, My TEK does not sound clear, it's a bit muffled, any advice? (I have a 14" Remo frame drum). The frame drum is my very stable, it keeps oscillating everytime i play DUM, any advice? Much appreciated. Thanks.
Hi! I'd need to see and hear you play to be sure, but it's possible that you're holding your finger on the head of the drum a bit too long when playing Tek. Try to keep it light and bouncing. Those small Remo drums are quite light aren't they! A student of mine sometimes uses a type of rubbery material placed across their knee which can help with the unwanted movement of the drum when playing Doum. Hope this helps!
@@kenshorley thanks
Keren pokoknya
Super nice, I've been considering getting a pair of ribbons to record hammered dulcimer. Thanks Ken
Ooh yes! I bet that would sound sweet on your dulcimer!
The best teacher ever
Aww thanks!
I was close to selling my circuit, but after my newfound interest in finger drumming and now knowing I can use the circuit my plans have changed 💯
Excellent! I still find the Circuit an inspiring piece of gear, even after 8 years!
Beautiful
@@rhythm_with_alex Thank you!
what a cool instrument. Thanks for these instructional videos.
Glad you like them!
We want more shakerrrrrr
Very interesting. But where and when is this applied?
One drummer layering over another..
So clean! Amazing)
Thanks a lot!
Great tutorial. I’d love to see some longer pieces where you mix a couple of rhythms and such over time (like 5 to 10 minutes)
Thanks for the suggestion. I'll see what I can do!
Thanks!
Thank you!
He's back!!! Thank you
Good to be back!
I love poly rhythms and I love your teaching! I’d love to see your take on the differences between poly rhythms and poly meters. This has always been confusing to me. So happy to see the new video! Thank you Ken, for this and all your lessons.
Thanks so much for the kind words! It's true, the distinction between polyrhythms and polymetres can be tricky to understand. Some folks use the terms interchangeably too! That would make a great topic for a future video. Thanks!
Great … with this Video and Explanation I am able to better understand the Basics and learn better to transfer it to my Handpan. Cheers …
teach us this Ken!
Some of this material will find its way into the BBFD (Beyond the Basics Frame Drum) course I'm working on!
Thank you so so much!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Happy drumming!
Is there anywhere I can find drum loops of this so I can play accordion along with?
I just found an app called Loopsic that has some loops in 7, 5, etc. I can't guarantee that it has a Racenica but it may be a good place to start!
@@kenshorley Thanks, but needs to be on PC, I don't use a phone.
I literally never used my middi commander like I should, I thought I had to give up and use bias fx forever. The video is gold, even more so since this thing is discontinued, thank you so much
Malfuf is my favourite meal after fassoolya br'z
Cool
Cooooooooooooooooool
Where can I find the metronome tempo you are using to practice it? And thank you so much for sharing this lesson
At 7:46 I mention that the metronome tempo is 75 BPM.
Who’s Rick?
Thanks for your videos ‼️What metronome do you use?
Hi. I'm not using a metronome in this video. It's me playing a set of finger cymbals to keep time!
Great lesson. Thank you
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the video!
Where do you get your in-depth knowledge, patience and clarity in teaching!!! I respect you as my teacher, Thank you so much Shorley sir.....
Thank you so much for the kind words! I am indebted to the great master musician Prof. Trichy Sankaran for my training in kanjira and Indian rhythm.
🙏
I am playing themes and variations, now yati.....Thanks for your lessons .....
Thanks for watching!
Perfect!!! Thank you so so much!!!!
Glad you found the video useful!
👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏
Thank you Ken! These rhythms, patterns and ideas will bring a lot of joy to me in the future and will absolutely enrich my frame drum playing.
Thank you for the kind words! Happy drumming!
Awesome!
Thank you!
Thanks! Ken, I am new to frame drum and I love your teaching, playing and quality production work. Thanks big time,Al
My pleasure! Glad you're enjoying the videos!
WONDERFUL!!
Thanks!
Is this a classic Cooperman tar?
Yes it is! I have classic 14" and 18" tars from Cooperman and love them both!
@@kenshorley I have two Cooperman tars: a 14" classic with ebony suede head and an 18" Glen Velez with renaissance head. Thinking about getting a 16" featherweight. 💖 love your videos, you are so clear with your instructions and rhythms. Thanks for creating frame drum content!
Incredible!
Thanks!
Amazing!
❤ so beautiful. And I love the setting! ☀️🌊
Thanks!
that is awesome !
Thank you!
Well that was mesmerizing
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!
So sorry to hear about your father. I'm sure he would have been honoured having a video dedicated to him.
Thanks so much!
Great tutorial! Do you have instructions for using the up and down buttons to trigger samples and midi in the same column or track
Hi! I need to do a bit more experimenting but I don't know if the up and down buttons are mappable on this unit the same way the other buttons are.
We call the pa tek. Why do you call it pa?
Hi. Regional variations in the names of the drum strokes are common. Pa is distinct from Tek in this case in order to distinguish the muffled tone from the resonant tone around the edge of the drum.
Love it I have one of these!!!
The content you bring on your channel is wonderful, and your instruction is clear and precise - thank you very much
Thanks so much for your kind words! I'm glad you're enjoying the videos. Cheers from Canada!
I would love to do an introductory course. Also, I can't get any sound just useing my ring finger. I have to use the middle and rung together?
Hi! My BFD (Beginner Frame Drum) course is now available if you're interested! You can find it at kenshorley.podia.com And yes it does take time to build up strength in the ring finger. When I first started, I used both middle and ring fingers together to play the Ka stroke.
Just a question: is there a difference between the 3 stroke and Pah stroke? I tried using four fingers for Pah to make it sound different because it’s how I learned it, but the muted 1 on the previous pulse makes my hand’s movement a bit off beat. It seems that you are using three fingers for both 3 stroke and the Pah stroke. Is that usual among players or it’s only for this specific pattern only? Would love to hear your thoughts and thank you for making these great lessons online!
Hi! It's a subtle difference but I agree that, in this instance, it flows better to use the 3 stroke in place of a standard Pa. (Although I still use the tips of all 4 fingers to play a single Pa stroke.)
💖💖👏👏👏🔥🔥🔥🌟🌟🌟💖💖💖
