    I traveled through Central Africa some 30 years ago. From Douala to Kisangani I remember the beat of this music. It was a very powerful and exciting sound. I do a Travis type picking with a plect. This seem somewhat similar but a more exciting sound. Good luck with the project.

    Issac singing the rhythm at 6:24 is very useful. Picking goes somewhat easier if you know the beat pattern behind it. GREAT sound. I use a pick + 2 fingers to get these types of layers, but now I realize it's good to leave some air around those arpeggiated notes.

I finally start to hear what I (as a plain vanilla white European 🤣) like so much in seben. This will be my basis to find more efficient voicings and then finally start improvising...something which eluded me for so long!! Thank you so much!
