Cajon

Cajon is an interesting music instrument.

According to wikipedia, it is a kind of box drum played by slapping the front face with the hands.

and the effect? excellent. Combining with a nice accoustic guitar, you can have a very nice and wonderful performance like this




and this



first saw this Cajon at the east exit of Shinjuku station, Japan, where a live band were performing using Cajon. Surprisingly though, it combines well with J-rock too.

gotta love this.
