General

While this slit drum may look like a new and innovative tuned percussion instrument, you're actually looking at one of the early ancestors of the mobile phone. Way back, the slit drum was used as a remote communication device across Africa, South East Asia, and Oceania. By cleverly placing it in a valley or by a river, its message-carrying notes can be heard for miles, providing a tech free mode of communication. This tuned percussive instrument has a full and warm sound shaped by a wooden cabinet with eight tongues of varying thickness and length routed into the top surface. By striking these tongues with a mallet, eight different notes can be played to weave rhythmic melodies and beat sequences - much like a marimba. The Schlagwerk 60P82 Slitdrum has been tuned in the F pentatonic scale.
