For whom this scale will work?

The E Low Pygmy can be a good choice for inexperienced enthusiasts who enjoy the particular effect that the E Low Pygmy provides. It is an excellent drum for meditative, spiritual and mental practices. This scale will become a fantastic helper in therapies that require total immersion into the sound.

Thanks to its super durable sustain, the E Low Pygmy creates a lot of space for you to fill it with sound. So you do not even need to plan a solid composition and note combination – just let the drum create the melody. Thus, simply repeat 2 or 3 notes allowing them to open up. Suchlike musical accompaniment will be a perfect background for your yoga session.

At the same time, the RAV Vast E Low Pygmy drum will be interesting for the pro-level players who have a musical background and are ready to experiment with a new sound. An experienced musician can try using different techniques with the drum. However, it will work better with a meditative playing style. If you want to record a meditation album, E Low Pygmy will be a perfect choice.

If you prefer a faster playing style, G Pygmy will be a better instrument in this case.

The advanced musicians will love using the E Low Pygmy for creating musical compositions. It works as a perfect background for high-tuned instruments like a violin as it will create a crazy contrast and fill in the cracks of whatever melody you are playing.

If you want to use the bass sound of the scale, but for some reason, you want to reduce the resonance longevity, buy an E Low Pygmy drum with a fabric case. That will reduce the sustain a little and give you a chance to play in a busking style.

What makes the E Low Pygmy so unique compared to other scales?

The main difference is that it has a really low shamanic sound that brings your mind to a starry night in the middle of an African savannah.

The sound of the E Low Pygmy is so much lower and deeper than of the other RAV’s that it may sound like a completely different instrument. The tongues are tuned in the 2nd, 3rd and 4th octaves, providing the musician with a broad palette of notes for creating various compositions.

The E Low Pygmy provides musicians with a great opportunity to unlock their potential and try something new every time they touch the instrument. It’s an amazing scale to enter a jam session, preferably with higher-end instruments like mandolin or ukulele.

 

The E Low Pygmy scale is the only scale tuned in E in the RAV Vast collection, so it possesses a unique selection of notes from E2 to D4. Like all the other RAV Vasts, the notes have sympathetic resonance.

What scales go together with the E Low Pygmy?

In RAV’s family, the E Low Pygmy is a bigger brother of the G Pygmy with a higher tone. Thus, if you order the E Low Pygmy drum, we recommend accompanying it with the G Pygmy or the C Golden Gate scales.

What kind of music can be performed with the E Low Pygmy?

It suits perfectly for the melodies that need a lot of volume and resonance. The scale produces a vast and deep mystical sound that overwhelms both the player and the listeners.

The special steel, its thoroughly measured width, and its unique shape make the E Low Pygmy drum sound powerful and resonating. That is why solo performances will be striking and unforgettable.
