It has been a while since my last post due to traveling around the West coast on tour. During that time I spent what free time I had on this new and exciting midi collection. Before I gave away the free Dubstep midi collection, and this time and I am leveling it up with the Tribal Rhythms!
Below is a collection of Tribal Rhythms. They are traditional rhythms used in lot of Arabic music. The rhythms are used with tabla and dumbek as well as other drums. I took live recordings and translated them to MIDI patterns.
I wrote out the rhythms as midi and collected them all together. This pack has 102 rhythms. Since it is all MIDI files it can be used with any DAW. They are all organized with there traditional names. Using this as a bases for your drum beats you can create some complex and unique patterns.

Yo Bro, thanx for the shared midi’s.
Just looked in to the first called Adnan. Well, since I don’t know much about arabic and tribal rhythm, other then what I can hear on recordings.
I’m wondering two things:
– how this rhythm should be counted is 6/8 really the count? I see a pattern which is 33/8 or 16/8 and 17/8.
what would be most correct in order to understand the original rhythm?
– which one of the figures is the lower or higher? Which is the typical original drum type (cymbals, snare-like, bass drums etc.)?
a lot of question, really just because i find it super interesting, and wan’t to find out how to use and understand other rhythm structures in order to use in electronic music..
Hey what’s the album you were researching it all for? Is it out yet?
Be greeted from Copenhagen, Denmark in the north of Europe.

Try cleaning your cache and doing it again. Sometimes it gets corrupt while you are downloading it.
