- The traditional music of Africa, given the vastness of the continent, is historically ancient, rich and diverse, with different regions and nations of Africa having many distinct musical traditions. Music in Africa is very important when it comes to religion. Songs and music are used in rituals and religious ceremonies, to pass down stories from generation to generation, as well as to sing and dance to. Traditional music in most of the continent is passed down orally (or aurally) and is not written. In sub-Saharan African music traditions, it frequently relies on percussion instruments of every variety, including xylophones, djembes, drums, and tone-producing instruments such as the mbira or kalimba.
Traditional Music Channel is for everyone who has a passion for music.
Music is an expression of human creativity. UNESCO reports that among all the performing arts, music is the most universal and is found in every society, most often as an integral part of other performing art forms and other domains of intangible cultural heritage.
Traditional forms of music are considered carriers of cultural heritage because they represent expressions and traditions transferred through generations of a community.
With recordings from more than hundred nations our collection of traditional music offers a staggering diversity of our humanity.

his hands are not moving its just a pic
I jog with this in my ear. As a black man, the voices and grunts are so inspiring and motivating. I ran 5 miles today
Great idea! Spirit and body moving as one!
word
I agree, it's very motivating. I worked out like never before and it seemed like I just couldn't stop or didn't want to stop. :)
I'm going to try this
I do the same thing but Im not Black directly Im Puerto Rican .... Running is definitely Spiritual !
Being an African American woman these drums instantly made me want to move my entire body especially my hips.. Love it
ASE '
This makes us all move...
It’s in your blood (your western African sister )
Being an Irish/Welsh American man, this made me want to move my freakishly tall pale white body as well. Not my hips though, I ain't got good dancing hips.

I'm S.African, my mother used to play a drum almost daily when I was a girl. Thank you so much for sharing!!! This is what I would call, African meditation :-)
Is this South African? I always assumed that South African Music was more Westernized,I know the black anthem for SA is mostly Melodic,like a Western National Anthem would be.
Africa meditation is a good way to put it

This will put you into a trance. Once there, welcome to paradise
It's incredible isn't it? How just drum sounds can move us so much.
Literally in paradise
I am not a black man but I am man(human). my woman and i feel like these sounds are very old and have integrated themselves into the crevices of our DNA. We are all from Africa
Eternal Vato We arent all from africa its much much deeper than that
Nathaniel McClymont maybe you don’t know that every human being from from the Black man! if you were taught that type of knowledge maybe you will get his point. I repeat all race of humans come from the Black man/woman and this is proof even in the science of this world! By DNA, and also history! If two white people were on this earth it’s never possible for a black people to be on this earth but in the deepest part of Africa black women born babies that are called albino with blue eyes and blond hair!
@@ismailasumareh7815 ur hella confused. i said that were not all from africa because BLACK was first EVERYWHERE
@@ismailasumareh7815 Actually, race is a construct. There is only one race-- the human race.
@@jcyberj you confused asf!! All races come from the Black race get that in first! This is proven historically, genetically and clear fact that if white, brown people were here before the black race there will be no black people!
One night I had an out of body experience listening to these drums. I was floating right over my body. Beware the power in these drums, especially if you are black. If you are sensitive they can call you out.
Music doesn't care you black or white...
it just take you to the heaven....
never felt the color bro....
just enjoy it
+keerthi vasan It has nothing to do with "black or white". Music calls everyone, but to say that Africans don't have a special connection with drum and spirit is the same as denying our blood heritage. Just because you read the word "black" is does not necessarily imply a contrast. Everything about our culture relates to spirituality. Drums = Spirit. It is the essence of Africa itself.
:)
i love those sounds
even am from india
anyway kudos to your wonderful culture
black not ofense is real color. pride of colors. drums is a power sleep hipnotic.
thanks is real .
I've now switched to my ancestral chants and beats to meditate to. To call upon the ANCESTORS to guide me to the God in me. Thanks for sharing.
Amen Ra!
Please let me know if there's any other spiritual poppers like this one: get's your energy revvin!
One thumbs up is not enough for this godly heritage.
y'are right! just gave you number 12 for Support!
no one dislike africa,we are love our africa
Words cannot describe what joy and respect I feel! Wonderful! Deep! Thx to god for that blessed Africa
I perceive this to be a great way to push out negative energy, seriously put the speakers to the back of your head and down your spine. This is great!
this is exactly what i am using it for
zach vision
zach vision. hh😩😩😀p ppl
I can only say -- "WOW!!!!!!"
This is rhythm for the AGES!!
Reading a book about Early Jazz and the first chapter was full of information about African Drumming and music. Its really, I mean really interesting.
Listened to this while hula hooping. It was almost like meditation. I felt incredibly good. The hoop spiraled to the rhythms of each drum tune. It happened naturally as au walked barefoot across the grass surrounded by the beauty of nature. This took me back to my ancestral roots. I learned how to walk and hoop at the same time with this music. Thanks for posting!
I often go to pagan/nature festivals and have found hooping to the drums to be a very meditative experience!
Zorgoon I'm gonna try that 🙂
Good idea 👍🏾
Man, there are some parts on here that are surely wicked. When GhostStylus said something about being called out, well, I think I know what he means. I had to remember that they are drums. Music. Emotion. Feelings of aggression were being summoned at times I discovered. The rhythms are just so entrancing. Being a drummer and percussionist I can appreciate this level of body, sound, spirit, community.
The new rhythm starting at 1:11:09- 1:14:33 really moves my spirit !!! I always seem to leave this realm when I hear this.
Kenneth Trigg this part right here 1:05-1:10:58 sent me into a.sexual trance... just wow wow wow POWERFUL!!!!!!
I love these drum rhythms. Very inspiring and uplifting traditional music. Thank you for this music.
I've always loved listening to African music with drums. Something about it just seems so relaxing to me!😌
Yo, this music right here seems to activate my Spirit. It makes me feel like I have the Power within.
I play this when honoring the ancestors.
LOL.
honoring the ancestors is the righteous thing to do!
anybody can have a connection with music, being white or black,is something else if you feel the music un your heart and soul
Im loving this. I might be a creole brought up in Holland, but i feel this. Africa in my roots. Rythme in my soul and love in my heart. So happy to listen and enjoy from the bodom of my heart all the way. This is just beautiful to me. Much love xxx
The ability of the African drum to communicate words and emotions is amazing. That's why they were banned during slavery in many parts of the Americas. Now there is an international drum culture. People play these types of drums throughout the world. I am saddened by the fact that many people on the Web still subscribe to racist interpretation of the human "cultural transmission mechanism." It's what enables cultures to be transmitted from generation and person to person. Race is superficial, unscientific, and a poor way to describe people. We all share our cultural attributes with others unless we are the cloistered. These artist we are listening to are superb and too bad enough of us do not know African languages to get the full meaning of the music.
Amen!
If race was superficial, people wouldn't judge you because of it.
I'm proud of my race and my identity.
Race is very real and the people of it are beautiful beyond words.
Scientifically speaking race does not exist. It's a construct used to exploit people and create divisions based on superficial traits. However, no matter what your phenotype is, you should be proud of it. But the "race" based classification system is a hierarchy that defines people and effects many of us negatively. I refuse to subscribe to that system. The truth is that there is only one race--the human race. A system that places an ignorant and crude person, based on skin color or hair texture, above someone who is knowledgeable and a paradigm of humanity is the major hint of how flawed the system is. Also, throughout the world you'll find all kinds of mixtures of genes because of wars, migrations, colonialism, the slave trades, etc. No one living today meets the racist standard of purity. Just taking couples into consideration, in nine generations you are related to 1024. All you know about these ancestors is either written or legend. Jesus for example was not as he is pictured by Europeans.
+Jimi Cyber scientically speaking blacks are those with more melanin can hear these drums better than one lacking melanin and that's just one thing
Your statement is hilarious and unscientific. Culture is transmitted from person to person. That's my point. A baby mostly learns from his or hers environment and is not born with the components of that social system. All humans are not limited in their ability to pick up the culture in which they are immersed or components of that culture they explore (music, song, dance, religion, values, mores, etc.). Attributing these components to genes is absurd and the basis of racism!
I could not focus at this work this morning. I listened to the drums and felt the restlessness drains away. I have this link stored as the sounds really calm and stabilize my mind.
I am enjoying this music. Thank you for sharing this music with us
I love *salsa* music from the Caribbean and can see how drumming of this kind greatly influenced those great sounds. Thanks for sharing.
The sounds came here in the west from the slave ships.
I wish that I could see this live!!
Check your local or nearest big city Arts pages. Look especially for US and African National dance companies. Peace!

I am also a drummer, specializing in African style. I love the djembe, personally
great sound, like it, African sound to relax an African, the most notorious player is Mamady Keita
What a gem - thank you! If you enjoy this, “Drums of Passion” would be a great album for you to explore.
Thank you!!!
Watching Senegal play and hearing this in the stands, love the emotion and vibe it gives off!
The best richness is being african.
Yusuf Ercan this sounds a little ironic.
Yusuf Ercan Definitely an opinion.
+robken0174 duh...
Christian Sims Duh yourself. Some obviously would believe this; hence, my comment.

Africa beautiful ☆
I love my Africa roots I just love the drums I hear this music every morning with my autistic son it helps him a lot spiritually thanks you for putting this video out there
Y’all shouldn’t be so easily swayed into foolery: such as pics and particularly the sound of the music! This ain’t nothing but a bunch of Caucasian dudes in the studio making beats-period! Don’t be so stupid-but it sounds good, not a hada!
@@dayday43 and how do you know this?
@@kamau9ether179 Because ain’t no real African tribal people in no studios, most of them live by The Most High’s natural living! Unless, somebody came out to their land and recorded this-I don’t think so…don’t be so gullible, fallen for a bunch of made up garbage! Hey, them dudes turned a few knobs and you don’t need allot of equipment to make this music!
Love the mix of music I am puertorrican, and I love this music its on my blood, awesome
you can go on with lif
e but can't escape the roots I tell you ;).
That's rigth
how is african music in your blood if you're puerto rican no offense
+Dragon Trainer Asif we came from a mix of indians spaniards and african people. as well of many others that came here. :) just can't hear a drum sound without moving.

Mother Africa is the birthplace of rhythm
Awesome music! Love it.
It has such amazingly striking similarity to Karnatic percussion. So much so that the mnemonics of the drum rhythm exactly fits Karnatic percussion.
Wou..fiha--Big respect!.....this is druming......!
As brother from 🇨🇦 this is my workout music in the gym

BLESSINGS FROM THE MOST HIGH

Thanks, very enjoyable!
Support both local and visiting African dance companies. Note that there are 54 nations in Africa and many cultures there overlap into others across borders. However, West Africa is the region from which most African Americans ancestors arrived from during the Age of Slavery. The drum shown
in the picture is called the Djembe. It's a precursor of the conga drum of Latin America. Neither shown nor listed above is the multi-string kora. Refer to the University of CZcams and Google for great videos such as FOLI.
African drum beat will always be in music bands we are the builder of every thing good beats that heals the body gave us vibs
Que belleza de música da energia a cualquiera hace bailar. Excelente 😘
Que manera querer de Que manera
Excellent programming music!
LOVE IT!
Been trying do it....BuuuuuT
Amazing vibrations Give thanks
Bless to the creativity of the human heart
before house music, they had this. i enjoy this more.
Black people sure do know how to drop a beat.
mikhail antonio Whites sure do know how to "drop a beat." Please Google Buddy Rich. Best drummer EVER...and white.
robken0174 Yeahy, and Hendrix had a white drummer that killed on traditional trap set.
mikhail antonio Why does it have to be about race? All people can drop a beat. Ever listen to Japanese Taiko drummers, middle eastern, turkisth, India, American etc....How about Glen Valez (American frame drummer) www.bing.com/videos/search?q=glen+velez+youtube&FORM=VIRE1#view=detail&mid=9ABDC4791CD29E7854639ABDC4791CD29E785463
+Dana Manning Agreed, and I don't think it has to be about race.
However, my impression is that African drumming has been fairly influential on American musics such as Jazz, Blues and Rock.
+Dana Manning Because it can be about race..........
this is the best thing on youtube so far!
C'est excellent j'aime beaucoup !! Je jpoue un peu de tam tam ! Merci beaucoup !
