Please keep in mind these are 10 second clips of each 1 minute rhythm. If you can't hear them, email me and I will send them to you. Some computers won't play them for some reason.

6 Drum Circle Rhythm Samples

You can get 120 drum circle rhythms in mp3 format for $10 at the CD Baby link below, or here on 2 CD's as well. This may be the biggest collection of drum circle rhythms available anywhere. There is over 2 hours of them. 101 rhythms from around the globe, all about a minute long each. Actually there is 120 of them, but who's counting. Check out a drum rhythm sample or two below. African, Bellydancing, Afro-Cuban, Native American, Middle Eastern, World, Blues, R&B, Soul, Funk, Rock and Roll & lots more. I started doing these drum circle rhythms on CDs & DVD some years ago. I like to hear a new rhythm for a while so I can get into it, so each rhythm is about a minute long. There's no talking, or fluff. These rhythms from different cultures and countries were all put down on these 2 CD’s for you to enjoy. Try them out at the drum circle, at gigs, just jamming with friends, or wherever. Listen to them in your home sterio, car, make MP3's for your iPod. Try them out alone or with friends on your djembe, doumbek, ashiko, congas, or any kind of hand drum. The reason I did this project is sometimes you just can’t remember a new beat to start out with, or just want to pick up a few different beats to add to your collection. We all get out there now and then and think, “I used up all the rhythms I know, and can’t think of another one!” Well these 2 CD's should solve it, and keep you busy for quite some time. These are ideal reference material for drum circle facilitators, or someone who wants to get a drum circle started. One fun idea to do with a few friends is to pop a CD into a boombox, and after you have the beat going, shut it off and keep jamming on it. Then move on to the next one and jam on that for a while. The time flys by. Some of these rhythms you will love, some you may not. Others may inspire you to change them around a little, and make them your own, depending on your own sense of drumming and style. Please keep in mind, this is not the only way to play these, it is just to give you an idea how I play them. Everyone's body and hands are different, every drum is different, so I expect you will change them around a little, and have a little fun with it. All 120 hand drum rhythms are played on a single djembe drum, all are numbered individual tracks. There are 62 hand drum rhythms on CD one, and 58 drum rhythms on CD Two. As an independent artist, I always appreciate a good value for my money. That's the idea behind my CD's, helping fellow musicians, and artists to enjoy drumming more.
