This means that there will be little or no electric guitar and almost no drum programming (I may still write some drum passages with Reason, but this is just because I don’t have a drumset here). To turn this dream into a reality (sorry for that), I’ve picked up the following percussion instruments:

Cajon

Cajon




Bongos

Guiro

Shakers

Shakers




Wood blocks

Wood blocks




Claves

Claves




Tambourine

Tambourine




Honestly, these are fairly standard (maybe except for the cajon?) in a percussionist’s arsenal. I would like to add congas and a hi hat to the stash as well. We’ll see…
