We now get into the nitty-gritty of playing these two instruments, the klong yaw and bombo legüero. These are some basic techniques that I use to produce consistent sounds out of the drums.As always, please leave your comments! I appreciate them very much! And if you have any suggestions for future topics, please let me know!

Finally! I have gotten a chance to put out another lesson! Today, in multiple parts, I am discussing "Non-Traditional" techniques on two instruments that have recently made their way into my life: the Klong Yaw, and Bombo Legüero.Sorry for the multiple parts, but this ended up being a long lesson, but I hope it's worth it!!!! Please, leave me your comments and thoughts! I love hearing from everyone who watches!!!Specifically, I want to know this... Do topics like this interest you, and why? Thanks!!!

Ok, I've been busy trying to make the videos look a little more professional, and here is what I cam up with!!!I start my last semester of undergrad study in a few days, so I might not be able to continue with another lesson on Two Mallet Technique for a few days... I will try my best. Please let me know what you think... (and I did not mean to use the same music as the Vic Firth Podcasts... mine is slightly different, but I can see now that Vic Firth does their podcasts in iMovie too!!!) :)Enjoy!

Here is the first lesson. Just a short talk about myself and an introduction to two-mallet grip. I welcome your comments!!! Let me know what you think. Thanks!
