When playing the Key-Tuned Series Djembes by REMO you will hear authentic, quality tones and a resounding volume of sound that a REMO Acousticon can produce. This 16x27 Djembe is decorated with the great-looking Kintekloth Fabric Finish and is fitted with a REMO Fiberskyn M2 drum head. The 16 diameter djembe is the largest of the standard sizes. It produces a very deep fundamental tone but still has plenty of bright, higher tones. It works very well by itself and is a great primary or lead drum when played along with smaller and higher-pitched drums.REMO African Djembe DrumsDjembe drums have become very popular in recent years not only because of the infusion of African and Middle Eastern musical styles into popular music but also because djembe drums lend themselves to a wide range of music. A variety of sounds can be pulled from a djembe (pronounced GEM-bay) drum, from the deep and booming bottom tone to the bright, singing top sound. A djembe can easily be played to emulate a set of congas or bongos and the kick and snare of a drum set as well as the music that djembes are usually associated with. Thats why djembes have become the one drum to carry!REMO Acousticon Djembe ShellsREMO Djembes are based on the same traditional Djembe tone and form combined with their modern advances, particularly the REMO Acousticon drum shell made in the USA. Remos proprietary Acousticon is an environmentally friendly shell material made with 100% recycled wood fibers. Acousticon djembe shells have all of the tone and resonance of solid wood shells but are much lighter (more portable!) and less expensive to manufacture. This results in a great-sounding and durable drum that in a wide and dramatic variety of Designers Touch and Fabric finishes
