TOM DRUMS
Big Phat TOM DRUMs, make the drum beat penetrate the whole environment, the dancers, the walls, the roof and the earth itself move when the mighty TOM DRUM is played. This is the drum beat that really sets the booming tempo of a lot of world beat music.In the African percussion band, this part is played on the djun djun set, usually with the djun djun player clinking out the counter beat on a pair of cowbells mounted right onto the djun djuns. The sound is very mystical as it is the same musician producing the highest note AND the lowest.
