Man 1: This is an overview of the Log Drum or sometimes called the Krin. This instrument is played with three people, each person has their own. And this comes from the forest region of Guinea West Africa where Bamba’s from.
Bemba: Yeah man.
Man 1: It’s made out of white wood that’s called the Malina wood. And they’re hollowed out by hand and each slat is tuned to a different note. So mines sounds different than Bemba’s, sounds different than Hasan’s. See this one?
