Historical Context and Positioning in the Range

Part of the large family of frame drums, the "Buffalo" is inspired by traditional instruments used in many cultures for rhythmic trance, dance, and ceremony. In the 22-inch version, it belongs to the large diameter formats, favoring depth of the fundamental tone and broad projection, compared to smaller sizes oriented towards more attack and brightness.

Who This Drum Is For

This drum is suitable for beginners as well as intermediate players seeking a full sound without technical complexity, as well as drum circle facilitators, practitioners in sound relaxation/music therapy, teachers, and musicians of world music, ambient, or folk. Its mid/low register facilitates maintaining a steady ostinato, a sustained drone, and enveloping textures in ensemble playing.

Features and Innovations

The shallow depth of 3.5 inches offers excellent ergonomics and a manageable weight for long playing without fatigue. The rope handle ensures a stable grip, useful for controlling dynamics and free-hand effects (muted, openings). The included mallet allows for a soft and round attack, while hand playing provides more micro-dynamics and percussive responses. The whole set prioritizes simplicity, durability, and stage or educational efficiency.

Sound Characteristics

The 22-inch diameter produces a deep fundamental with a beautiful envelope. Struck with the mallet, the note comes out full and warm, with a muffled attack and generous sustain. When played by hand, the response offers more nuance: heel for a dry attack, fingers for clearer harmonics, palm for powerful accents. The announced mid/low tone favors the creation of enveloping atmospheres, perfect for meditation, rhythmic guidance of a group, and support of chants or instrumental drones.
