Thread Starter | Favorite Ethnic Percussion Instruments
Today is one of those sample organization days for me. I've been going through TONS of ethnic percussion today and was wondering what you guys favor in your tracks. Just looking to see if i'm overlooking any instruments or maybe there's stuff out there that I've never even heard of yet. Peace. |

Formerly: tabla, congas, bongos and timbales. I try to make my own percussion loops if I have the inclination and the client has the time/budget. Otherwise, I just hit the library, like most.
