What a fun time i had bringing some sounds from the commonwealth to this track in honour of the Queen’s Jubilee. Thankful for my huge collection of percussive instruments from around the world. There are 56 independent countries that make up the commonwealth, from Africa, Asia, the Americas and Europe. I decided I would try and use percussive instruments and sounds from every continent. So here’s a list – Yidaki (didgeridoo) Australia, Tuelle (log drums) Pacific islands of Fiji and Samoa, various African drums and shakers from Tanzania, Rwanda and Nigeria, Ankglung (Malaysia), First Nations drum (Canada), shakers (Europe) and Clap sticks (Guyana).
