REMOET-0216-10 Ocean Drum

Ohh I love this Remo ET-0212-10 Ocen Drum SOOOO much. It really does sound like the sea. I had never heard of an ocean drum and saw this exact one played on You Tube and knew it was the one for me. I had seen the plain version elsewhere but the tropical fish design really appeals. There are differences in tone depending if you swish the beads around on the printed side which is a little softer and quieter then if you play on the clear side of the drum, the sea sounds are mush louder, like a firece storm crashing waves.i've found the trick is to let the beads slide slowly from one side to the other then at the last moment turn this to a circular movement, that way the sound gradually fades so you can do this repeatedly for a more realistic waves sound. Going from side to side works, but there is the sudden stop point n the obvious first few beads hitting the edge, the circular swish softens the edge of the sound.The description said the drum comes with a beater, mine did not. To use as a drum, being just 10" in size makes for a high pitched drum. But I wanted this mostly for the sounds of the sea, which you achieve by letting the beads move around inside the drum.FOr those with limited dexterity and I am one of those the drum itself is quite light but works very well if you need to rest it on your lap and get the beads moving by moving your feet up to tip toes, not even off the floor, to change the angle of the drum on your lap.It is quite loud, but the printed side gives a gentler sound. It is also VERY soothing great for de stressing and to use at the start of meditation to clear busy thoughts. I have anxiety and found it useful to go sit somewhere n just swish this around to calm a buy mind and think of the seashore. very calming.If you are stressed, love the sound of the seaside but want the option of a dynamic sound YOU create rather than an app, this is for you.

My sound baths members love the ocean drum, my old one was broken so went for this pretty design. Looks and sound good.

This is a great drum perfect for taking it around as its not too big. Theimages are great to help groups imagine the sea and waves sounds that they canmake.

Really relaxing to use & be around. As well as from the noise & sounds just watching the ballbearings move across the drum is also therapy in itself!

The colours are gorgeous and the sound is divine. I purchased this to add to my sound Bath instruments and I am so pleased that I didn't opt for one of the cheaper versions available. I can't wait to use it in my sessions as I think the group will love it too. Arrived a day early.

This has been an amazing instrument that I have used in my Reiki Drum Meditation Classes and my mother who has Dementia loves it too!

The Remo Ocean Drum has a lovely sound as you move it around in your hands it really does sound like the ocean waves as they lap onto the beach.

Excellent sound and quality

great sound and interesting as well as unique. Used for playfulness.

I am amazed at the quality and true sound of ocean waves

Prompt shipping, haven’t used too much but is lovely an will take some practice.

Schöner Klang und gut verarbeitet

Cet instrument permet de recréer la mer. Et voilà que le silence se remplit. C'est une plage qui s'ouvre, et la rencontre devient possible dans un nouveau contexte; la rencontre avec soi-même ou avec d'autres qui sont libérés par le contexte ainsi créé. Cela nous rappelle le bruit du placenta qui remplissait nos oreilles quand nous flottions dans le liquide amniotique.... Souvenirs de bonheur incomparable enfoui dans la mémoire ancienne!
