Head 10'' Nylon GP3
€7.14
10“ GP3 Fell for repinque / repique de mão / timbal / pandeiro (P3 - 250 Micron: 0,25mm) - GOPEGP3 heads are thick, single-layered synthetic heads with a saturated sound, medium bass character and very little overtones. They produce a full, strong and almost matt tone due to their thickness and vibration behaviour - thick heads vibrate less than than thin heads. A special feature of the GP3 heads is the distance between the aluminium rim and and the surface of the head which is larger, compared to other brands, meaning that the head will settle well on your instrument shell straight away.
Resonance head or batter head?GP3 heads are ideally used as batter heads. For a resonance head, a thinner option will vibrate stronger and in combination with a GP3 batter head produce a nicer sound.
Give it some time:The life career of a head begins with the moment you put it on your drum for the first time. Each time you tune it, the head will fit itself more comfortably onto the rim of shell being the base for the head. Also in terms of sound, time has an effect on every head. New heads often sound a bit whiny when freshly fitted onto the drum. But after a short break-in time and regular playing, the sound will quickly improve. A new head also will lift the rim higher. Each time you tune your drum, the head will sit itself lower down on the base and the rim can settle.
In short:New head - high rim, whiny sound.After a break-in time - low rim, nice sound.

Pandeiro reciclado 10'' paper skin
Handmade pandeiro made from 100% recycled materials - with paper head - vegan!A vegan pandeiro completely made of recycled materials in hand-made quality? Yup, you read that right! The frame is made of upcycled wood that was already destined for being discarded. The jingles are made of old metal components like beer caps and old can bases, the hardware of refurbished scrap metal parts. And the main feature: a head entirely made of recycled paper. The sound is really good, has nice, full mids, a pleasant attack and responds easily. The pandeiro is also in our absolute lightweight category. The jingles are particularly interesting: they have something delicate and rustic at the same time about them, and in their own way go with all Brazilian styles. With a good amount of street character, the pandeiro fulfils the somewhat rawer sound requirement sought for in Capoeira, for example, but at the same time the interleaves made from cans of dry milk add an unexpected lightness that will allow the pandeiro to sound-sparkle at any Choro session. All materials are, of course, thoroughly cleaned and tested before going into production. Like any other handmade pandeiro, the vegan paper pandeiro brings its own distinct sound personality, depending on the availability of the materials. Manufacturer Vagner Oliveira is one of our long-time suppliers of exquisite handmade pandeiros with high-quality sound characteristics. In his demo video you can hear the lower pitches as well as the ease with which the pandeiro accepts and reproduces beautiful tones very well.frame made of upcycled woodhardware made from upcycled scrap metaljingles and interleaves made of recycled scrap metal componentshead made from recycled paperbassy soundsvegan friendlyUser information:The pandeiro is not suitable for high tunings! Although the paper skin is not overly delicate, it is generally more susceptible to tearing than a natural hide due to its nature. We therefore recommend proceeding slowly and carefully during the tuning, especially when tuning for the first time, and possibly ordering a replacement skin with the instrument. For torn paper skins, no warranty can be provided, as the appropriate use is not traceable.

10“ P2 head (P2 - 190 micron: 0,19mm) - IZZO
Thin or thick?P2 heads are thinner (P2='grossa'; P3='supergrossa') than P3 heads, which is why they sound lighter, they have more overtones and transmit sound easier because they vibrate stronger than a thick head. The thickness of a head has only little influence in how long it may last. Some percussionists play a thin head just as long as a thicker one.Resonance head or batter head?You can use P2 heads for both. They are suitable for batter- or resonance sides of a caixa or repinique or also for a small timba or a repique de mão.Take some time:The life career of a head begins with the moment you put it on your drum for the first time.

Pandeiro Luthier 10'' Nylon Head
Absolute favourite - made in Rio!You are looking for a low pitched pandeiro for Funky Grooves, Coco, Pagode or any other style, a handcrafted but hard-wearing pandeiro with a fantastic sound? This modell by Pizzott has this special concept! A sinthetic head which is not high-pitched like typically in Pagodes, but kept on a low, warm, full and bassy tone amazingly similar to a natural head. The milky white nylon head is masked with a tight grid of crepe tape on its reverse side so that the head won´t flutter. Like this it is able to produce an overtone-poor and wonderfully bass-focused sound! Fortunately, nylon heads are also less sensitive to moisture, additionally the tone is complemented by finest jingle sound. The brass jingles are hand-hammered and have a small inserted interleaf inbetween each pair. The slighlty higher weight compared to the natural head series by Pizzott’s manufactury is explained due to an additional pair of jingles. Marcos Pizzott himself is a percussionist in great demand in the Samba scene of Rio. With this instrument he has managed to develop a fantastic pandeiro which you can play throughout all styles and which is really fun to play! An absolute favourite!Nuts made of brass, brackets, hooks and the rim are made of steel.The masking pattern can vary.

Linha Estudo Silent Pandeiro - practice pandeiro in 12" for quiet practisingVersatile, lightweight practice pandeiro for all those who want to up their playing habits without having to drive to the rehearsal room or just want to enjoy a little session with consideration for flatmates, family members and neighbours. With its Linha Estudo, Contemporanea has designed a series of interesting practice instruments that catch the eye with features very similar to the ''real'' instruments. The Silent Pandeiro not only feels like a normal pandeiro, but can also produce all the essential characteristics of pandeiro playing in terms of feel, weight and jingle response, but in silence. Pandeiros are not loud instruments like bateria instruments, however, those of you who have small children or fussy neighbours, or non-sambista partners, will appreciate being able to practise at home but without getting in anyone's way. The pandeiro is an instrument that needs to be practised with particular regularity to build up strength, stamina and to develop a playing feel. Rubberised jingles dampen the sound and a practice mesh replaces the normal nylon head for realistic rebound.

Head 12'' Nylon
€13.03
Single-layered 12 “ nylon head by Contemporânea for repinique, caixa, repique de mão, 12'' timbal etc.A once and for all drum head! 12'' heads is probably the most commonly used size for repiniques and caixas, which is why a 12'' head belongs in every sambista emergency spare part set! Last but not least this head has top sound qualities and can be used on both sides of your caixa or repinique (batter- and resonance head approved). Single-layered nylon heads are the thinner standard version by Contemporânea and are very responsive with a clear, light sound and intentionally rich in overtones due to their vibrating stronger than thicker heads. This head is a standard option for 12'' repiniques and caixas. You will notice that between putting a new head on and playing on it for a while the sound will change positively. A new head might sound a bit whiny in the beginning, but as soon as it gets used to the tension and the rim of the shell, the sound will settle. As usual - good things are worth waiting for. A thin nylon head is suitable for you if you like the clear and light sound and if you want a head with an easy response.Make sure to have a spare single layer 12'' in your gig bag, like this you have a spare for both sides of your instrument and are prepared for all eventualities!

Head 12'' Super Nylon
€19.58
Fibreglass coated 12'' supernylon superior head for caixa and repinique - ContemporâneaDurable, strong, thick drum head with rich mids; fibreglass coating filters out unwanted overtones. Supernylon heads are made of a foil 32% times thicker than standard heads and have a special fibreglass coating on the underside producing a specific sound characteristic: reduced overtones, amplified mids, powerful sound. Super nylon heads are also particularly durable. Super nylon heads are always meant to be superior heads (batter heads), as they vibrate less due to their thick foil and their coating and they are therefore not suitable as resonance heads.Good to know:Give your head some time to settle! You will notice that there is a lot of strange sounds going on when you put on a new head. At first, a new drum head might sound a bit squeaky, until it gets used to the tension and the rim, it will stretch and eventually settle nicely onto the rim and into the hardware. In short - give it some time! A new head needs a few rehearsals until it sounds really good. A super nylon head is suitable for you if you like rich, strong and overtone-poor sound and you are looking for an especially durable head.

Head 10'' Nylon
€11.18
Single-layered 10 “ nylon head by Contemporânea for repiniques, caixas and pandeirosSingle-layered nylon heads are the thinner standard version by Contemporânea and are very responsive with a clear, light sound and intentionally rich in overtones due to their vibrating stronger than thicker heads. This head is a good standard option for 10'' repiniques and caixas, or for Pagode style pandeiros. You will notice that between putting a new head on and playing on it for a while the sound will change positively. A new head might sound a bit whiny in the beginning, but as soon as it gets used to the tension and the rim of the shell, the sound will settle. As usual - good things are worth waiting for. A thin nylon head is suitable for you if you like the clear and light sound and if you want a head with an easy response.For repiniques, you can use this head as superior head to play on as well as a resonance head.

Tambores do Brasil
€24.37
By Luiz Roberto SampaioText & DVD in English and Portuguese'Drums of Brazil – Book 1' focuses on the study of the instruments rebolo, repique de mão, tantan and multiple percussion - the combination of percussion instruments. The method implements exercises in hand coordination and independence, in order to develop the abilities required by these instruments.To diversify and facilitate learning, it is suggested the use of a 'rods' type drumstick, attached across the body of the instrument. This allows the development of certain abilities and techniques never before explored on such instruments. We name this effect 'Rebolo de Esteira' or 'TanTan de Esteira', because it evokes the sound of the snare coils on a Snare Drum. Note that the repique de mão does not permit this technique. The 'rods' type drumstick attachment is merely a suggestion; one may enjoy the book without it.The Multiple Percussion combination of instruments is made possible due to practical and contemporary musical syntax. The percussion student may try the mixing of instruments such as caxixi and tantan, agogô and atabaque, or one of the many combinations possible in percussion, or even in established configurations such as a pair of Congas or even a full drum kit.An array of varied exercises is offered, with special attention given to hand coordination and independence, besides accents, subdivisions and polyrhythms. There is also a challenging exercise in alternating dynamics for the hands, which sharpens the student’s technique.To bring along your development with the instrument, the book covers a good portion of Brazil’s varied rhythms such as Afoxé and Baião, besides the obvious Samba and Bossa Nova, as well as composite and irregular rhythms. To clarify eventual doubts, some exercises and rhythm samples taken from the book are available as videos on YouTube.69 pages

Hide head 10''
€12.52
Hide head 10'' - aluminium rimInformation about mounting hide heads:Natural heads tend to twist when they are unmounted since the manufacturers moisten the skins before pulling them over the wooden or aluminium rim. So when they dry again, the head twists. When leaving the high humidity in Brazil and arriving to the dry European climate (low humidity and room heating), the heads tend to twist even more. Please notice that this is no damage or irregularity! Before mounting the head please moisten (not soak!) it carefully with a kitchen sponge etc, pull it over the drum shell and then let it dry slowly in the air! Don't force dry a hide hed with a heater, hairdryer or in the sun as it will make the head brittle and prone to tear!
Information for hide heads on aluminium rims:Natural heads tend to twist when unmounted, especially with when temperature and humidity changes. This can happen as well with heads on wood rims as with skins in aluminium rims. The aluminium hoops are grouted in a way that leaves a small open joint gap. This is not a defect nor a broken seam, but a tiny tolerance which is there on purpose so that the head can expand or tighten without damaging the hoop or the head when air moisture changes. If you have received a twisted head with an open gap on the aluminium rim, then that is quite normal and with only a few steps the head will easily fit on your instrument shell: Slightly moisten the head, wait a couple of minutes, then fit it on the shell and put your instrument back together loosely. Only put tension on the head once it has dried completely and in a natural way; this will usually take overnight. As soon as there is tension on the head, wrinkles and the twist will disappear and the head will easily adjust to the shape of the instrument shell. If you have any questions about mounting a head, please contact us.
Purchasing replacement heads:If you are buying a replacement head for your instrument, we advise that you get a head from the same brand as your instrument as they should fit without any trouble. If you buy a head from a different brand, you might find that the fit slightly differs or even doesn't go on the shell well or at all. Please understand that we cannot offer warranty in this case.
