Collection: African Percussion

African Percussion is a vibrant and diverse genre that showcases the rich rhythmic traditions of the African continent. Drawing from various regional styles, it encompasses a wide range of percussive instruments and techniques that form the backbone of many African musical traditions. Two notable sub-genres within this category are Burkinabe Traditional and Ghanaian Traditional percussion. Burkinabe Traditional percussion, hailing from Burkina Faso, often features complex polyrhythms and the use of instruments like the djembe and balafon. Ghanaian Traditional percussion, on the other hand, is characterized by the intricate patterns of talking drums and the energetic rhythms of the kpanlogo. Both sub-genres contribute to the overall tapestry of African Percussion, showcasing the cultural diversity and musical ingenuity found across the continent.
