DESCRIPTION:
A demonstration of the World's first and only Electric Djembe, invented by Alex Alexander in 1997. -
Alex has invented an instrument called the Electric Djembe. Using African Djembes, Ethnic Percussion, Shure Wireless Mics and custom Guitar F-X Pedals and Loop Boxes allows him to create sounds that range from drum machine emulation to ambient keyboard pads
and washes.
These sounds are perfect for singer/songwriter trios or movie soundtracks.
These are totally analog organic sounds never heard before and create a terrific atmospheric vibe.
His unique blend of hand percussion and guitar effects pedals can be heard on television and film soundtracks, which he composes through
his company, Perpetual Motion Productions.
