00:00So we do have some smaller djembe drums, but today we are going to be looking at our two largest ones.

00:06So this one is a hand-painted wooden drum from Africa.

00:12It's actually classic, it's rope tied, carved at the bottom, and it has a hide skin on top.

00:21This is how it sounds.

00:22It has great resonance, everything that you'd expect from a professional djembe drum.

00:40Just to give you an idea of how it sounds.

00:42And then this one is an Indonesian drum, I'm not sure what type of wood it's made from,

00:48but it is extremely heavy and it's very tribal.

00:52It has got an Indonesian legal wood certification.

00:57Again, it's rope tied.

00:59You can tune these drums, I'm not exactly sure how to do it.

01:03I'm no drum expert, but you can see how big this drum is and the resonance is incredible.

01:18Very, very loud, going to definitely annoy the neighbours with this one.

01:29Anyway, that is our largest djembe drums.
