African Drumming Song - Ancestors Forever! / Mababu Milele

I hope you enjoy my very first attempt at composing, performing and recording African percussion. I perform percussion and voice on all 25 tracks of this song which I recorded in my home studio. I also created the accompanying video.

UPDATE 1 / 31 / 22:
This song is currently being used in a professionally produced play about Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. at the Garden Theatre in Winter Garden, Florida!

"The Mountaintop" is an award play by Katori Hall that covers Dr. King's last night on earth. My song accompanies the crescendo at the end of the play as Dr. King enters heaven and is having visons from God.

It's an honor and privilege to have my work recognized and utilized by such a talented and sincere group of professionals!

The show is running now through February 6th.

My wife and I attended one the performances last week and this play is very moving, timely and full of surprises!

I highly recommend listening to this through ear buds or head phones!
