Yankadi: 10-minute practice track (145 bpm)

Here is an updated 10-minute practice track of Yankadi. It includes the same three djembe parts and three dundun parts, but it has better sound quality. Yankadi is a popular rhythm from Guinea, West Africa. You can learn the parts included here from master drummer Fara Tolno's Rhythm Reference Project (http://www.rhythmreference.com/) and Djembe Guru (https://www.djembeguru.com). If you like what I'm doing, you'll love what he's doing!
That being said, you can use other parts learned elsewhere. There are lots of different ways to arrange Yankadi.
I did this track and many more in response to the social isolation related to COVID-19. I had no one to drum with, and I figured others were in the same situation. You’ll find lots of other practice tracks on my YouTube channel.
Enjoy!
