Here is a little jam that started out as a multitrack drum beat in a malfuf format. The malfuf beat is a basic 2/4 groove with a strong doum lead and evenly spaced tek beats. I also added a tuned gong, some cowbells and a tambourine track in addition to the doumbek.
Once the rhythm tracks were in place I improvised to the beat on my Egyptian Shehata oud. Overall the mood reminds me of a slow journey somewhere on horseback.
Thanks for listening :-)
