DVD Reviews of Akaran Iko Iko - Djembe Mastery Through Repetition
DVD Review: Very good, but not for beginners
Summary: 5 Stars
Excellent resource if you want to learn solo technique and get ideas for solo phrases. Note that this is not for beginners. You should have one to two years experience under your belt before tackling this. One minor downside of the DVD: there are no explanations or breakdowns for the solos. So, you can listen to the solo over and over again but, if you can't pick up a phrase or handing by simply listening and looking, there is no additional help.
One thing I found useful was to rip the audio track off the DVD, convert to MP3, and then use a WinAmp plugin that can play at various speeds without changing pitch. This is useful if you want to pick up some of the more complex solo phrases.
I highly recommend this DVD if you are an advanced player and don't mind putting some effort into learning new solos.
