Tamani Drum
A Modern Traditional Drum from Remo
Remo’s Tamani Drum is constructed using Remo’s proprietary Acousticon® drum shell which is a recycled fiberboard material, and Remo’s Skyndeep® Ultratac Lizard graphic synthetic drumhead which produces a warm, authentic sound, emulating the original tama drum sounds from Senegal, Africa.
The Tama is a type of talking drum, known for its ability to emulate the inflections of human speech. For centuries this drum was used as a form of communication from village to village. The tama is found in many places in West Africa, but predominantly in Senegal.
Remo’s Tamani drum features a traditional rope tuning style, antique shell finish, Skyndeep Ultratac drumhead, and comes equipped with a shoulder strap.
The Skyndeep Ultratac drumhead is ideal for pitch bending, and stays in tuned without being affected by the weather. Articulating and modulating tones are fun and easy to play with the Tamani drum.
Remo’s inventive drum and drumhead know-how makes it possible to bring this centuries old instrument to the modern world.
Available in two sizes. Stick is sold separately.
