So I built one. The rhythms, sounds, and hand positions are all drawn from real playing. Every tempo marking has been checked against how these rhythms actually feel. Whether you're just starting out or looking to deepen your knowledge of world percussion traditions, Darbuka Companion is built to be open on your phone while you play.
