Great Gift Ideas for Drummers imp.i114863.net/Gjzq5r
Reggae music is well known for a very distinct drum sound. Short and low toms paired with an open high pitched timbale-like snare sound.
If you want to play reggae music, you also need to know how to achieve these sound colors.
One of the pioneers of reggae drumming is Carlton Barrett who played with Bob Marley back in the day. Besides creating the typical reggae drum sound, the Jamaican drummer also shaped what we know as reggae drumming today.
Have fun diving into the world of reggae music and exploring the classic reggae drum sound.

Great video! I was part of the south Florida reggae scene some 20 years ago, playing drums around town. I was fortunate to become friends with Anthony 'Benbow' Creary, who played with many greats from the heyday in Jamaica, like Lee Perry and Augustus Pablo and many more. He taught this while kid quite a bit and we played together in a band and would often alternate between the kit and percussion. He would borrow my Tama kit for other gigs and it would come back to me all tuned and muffled quite like this kit. He was incredible to watch and hear play. He was VERY powerful, like a rock drummer. I'd ask him to tell me about recording at the Black Ark studio and all kinds of fun stuff. I feel very fortunate to have spent time with him and his kindness to take the time to share his deep knowledge of a beautiful era of reggae. Big respect!

É para mim o melhor baterista de todas as histórias na categoria do Reggae. O grande Calton Barrett não repetir as batidas, ele e o irmão Astor Barrett que também! Eu lhe considero o melhor baixista de todos os tempos! Que também fazia parte da banda do grande Bob Marley, ambos tinha uma sintonia de outro mundo lá atrás na cozinha da banda The Wailers. Sem palavras! Deixando claro não querendo desmerecer os outros componentes que faziam parte da grande banda THE WAILERS!🇧🇷
