two drums! composed & recorded by Rayan Aridi. done on one take i am using the Riq (tambourine frame drum as pictured) with the other track being a clay Bass Darbuka (Doholla) made by Descarga percussion, infamous one man band percussion maker over in Greece.

Riq flares the Clay

Kush rank, also known as Khosh renk / Khush Rang, is a arabic classical rhtyhm in 17/8, its a long one known in the style of Muwasha. i applied these rhythms on the Riq, Darbuka & Tbilat.

Kush Rank

i composed & recorded all of this, in one take, in one night, i had felt inspired from certain events that took place in a doorway. this is a sort of reflection or celebration of this moment.

this is a full on track in 9/8.
