I was invited to make this video with Karamba in the 90’s  we are playing the rhythm Kuku which originates on the log drum he is playing. A friend has posted these clips on FB




Here is a short clip from Mozambique video from 1996   This was my innovation, combining Mozambique with Bata.  I received a rare 5 star  review on this project from Modern Drummer magazine.

Immerse yourself in the rapture of music.  You know what you love.  Go there. Tend to each note, each chord, 
Rising up from silence and dissolving again, Vibrating strings draw us Into the spacious resonance of the heart.
The body becomes light as the sky , And you, one with the Great Musician, Who is even now singing us Into existence.  

Vijnan Bhairava Tantra #18, Lorin Roche translation
