Meinl Drums – Frame Drums The Meinl Percussion 22″ Sea Drum African Brown is a unique musical addition to any percussionist arsenal. Steel balls inside the drum create the sound of the ocean also adding a unique shaker-esque sound too. This isnt a one tonal drum however as there is a sealable filling port that affords you control over the timbre. Finally a goatskin head produces an authentic Sea Drum with a synthetic resonant head giving the drum projection and a modern twist.

This makes Meinl a popular choice for players who want to expand their sound beyond a standard setup.
The brand places strong emphasis on modern playing styles, sound design, and artist collaboration, which has helped shape many current drumming trends. For drummers and percussionists looking for distinctive sounds, creative options, and gear that supports both traditional and experimental playing, Meinl is a widely trusted and forward-thinking choice.
Percussion covers a wide and diverse family of instruments that create sound through being struck, shaken, or scraped. It includes everything from drum kits and hand drums to auxiliary instruments such as shakers, tambourines, cowbells, blocks, and mallet percussion. Percussion adds rhythm, texture, and colour to music across virtually every genre.
Hand percussion instruments like congas, bongos, djembes, and cajons are played using the hands or simple techniques, while auxiliary percussion is often added to drum kits to expand rhythmic and tonal options. Mallet percussion, such as xylophones and similar instruments, introduces melody as well as rhythm, broadening the musical role percussion can play.
Percussion is used in live performance, studio recording, education, and therapy, making it one of the most versatile areas of music making. Whether providing subtle rhythmic detail or driving the main groove, percussion instruments allow players to shape feel, dynamics, and expression in ways that support and enhance the music.
A shaker provides subtle rhythmic motion and texture by producing a continuous, controlled pulse. It helps reinforce timing, add movement, and fill space without overpowering the main rhythm. Shakers are often used to smooth transitions, support groove, and add feel and depth to both live and recorded music.
