Yes since 2008 cause I studied plástic art / sculpture in the university and at the same time, with our National crisis, Buy an musical Instrument was very expensive so, I built this one with cardboard box material, I paint with tribal desings and I use wood too. Thanks to Hive rewards finnaly in december I could bought the stuffs that miss it like some cymbals for finish the drumset.

And yes all the caribean Islands have strong strong African influences. And Venezuela too and the people here are proud for being part of that. They call theirselves afro-desendent with proud and for me its amazing.
And here exist Yoruba relugion too. So, a LOT of people are part of that religión. Starts in Cuba island and later comes to here. I was into several rituals, and there they play a Lot of drums. Is amazing!
