Repinique - product guide

In Rio´s Samba schools you will hardly see any other size than a 12'' repinique. So if Batucada is what you want to play, a 12'' instrument is what you´re looking for. Same thing for Samba Reggae. 12'' is the standard size, except for Timbalada grooves where you also find 10'' or 8'' repiniques, the so called Bacurinhas. They are pitched really high and almost sound like a tamborim. For kids and youngsters, but also for grownups with back problems, a 10'' or 11'' repinique may be a considerable alternative.

The standard are 6 tension rods. The advantage is that you have enough space between the single rods. This is especially important if you want to play with the screw nuts up, but even if they point down they won´t disturb you so much by poking your legs. It just makes sense considering 8 or 12 tension rods if you want to pitch your repinique up really high. In Brazil you probably won´t see a repinique with 12 tension rods.

Aluminium is lighter and hardly doen´t oxidate. The shell provides a higher metallic part of the sound. The galvanized surface of the steel sheet looses it´s gloss pretty soon and turns matt. A body made from galvanized steel sheet also weighs a little bit more. But those who love the authentic, typically dry sound, won´t make this a criteria for his choice. In Brazil´s Samba schools you see those instruments a lot, simply because they sound great and they are cheaper than aluminium instruments.

This does not only depend on the brand of the repinique. Also the head is decisive for how high the rim is. A brandnew head will automatically produce a higher rim position, at least in the beginning. If you keep tuning your repinique, the rim will slowly settle. As soon as the rim is comfortably settled, it will have lowered and you'll find it easier to play. Once the rim is really low, that usually also means the approaching end of the head and you should consider exchanging it. If you have an extremely high rim, it might be helpful to put on a new head in slighlty inclined position and then play on the side that flattens towards you. Policarpo Signature repiniques have a leveled rim between two lugs. Gope has low pre-pressed heads that automatically provide a lower fit.

Repinique 12'' x 30 cm - galvanised steel sheet, IvsomSteel sheet instruments are the classical old school type of Samba instruments. They are not particularly pretty but have an amazing sound. The material is simple - galvanised steel sheet with no extras, plain and compressed sound power for Rio sambistas and also Samba Reggae players. 6 rods are the standard for Rio Samba, if you play with the rods up, you 'll have enough space for your hand inbetween.The typical sound of steel sheet instruments is somewhat rough, voluminous, powerful and makes crispy calls and tinkling rimshots a real pleasure. Steel sheet weighs more than aluminium or inox but makes up for it with incredible sound. Steel sheet drums won't win a beauty contest - although having nice Ivsom details - the surface will loose its gloss with the time and will turn matt.

Repinique Policarpo 12''x30cm wood
Signature wood repinique Gabriel Policarpo 12''x30 cm with flattened rim - Contemporanea PRO Special design with lowered rim section (ideal for stick-hand technique) and black superior head by Contemporanea - THE model for repinique freaks - the wood Signature piece has some absolutely brilliant design details that will blow your mind. Yes, we know, it's beautiful. Something different: This repinique is made of wood - a rather untypical material for this instruments section. Wood is generally liked for its warm sound characteristics. In order for the shell to withstand the tension, it has extra reinforcement rings in the inside and weighs 2.85 kg, which is about 200 grams more than a standard aluminium model. Beautiful, matt lacquered finish with signature print completes the design. The Lamborghini Miura among the repinique models you could say. Classic dimensions meet high-quality materials and best workmanship. Functionalities are embedded in the design and thus enable the highest level of playing comfort with exceptional sound qualities. High-end Contemporanea PRO features ensure voluminous and saturated sound characteristics. 6 tension rods allow for authentic Rio-style tuning and leave enough space for your hand when using the hand-stick technique. Special feature:The rim is lowered on one side between two rods, so your playing hand is on the same level as the playing head. No more annoying rim, less injury potential and finally a cleaner sound, because now you can concentrate on your technique, your sound and your solos without any obstacles. Special design:Black, thick nylon superior head, Gabriel Policarpo signature print on the shell. Gabriel Policarpo is a top-class reference in the Samba scene of Rio and is internationally known for his combo with Bernardo Aguiar, with whom he founded the Pandeiro Repique Duo (PRD) and inspired not only sambistas worldwide. Gabriel Policarpo also gives workshops internationally and appears in collaborations with celebrities from the Brazilian music scene such as Yamandú Costa, Chico César, Hamilton de Holanda, Marcos Suzano and even with Guns N' Roses and many others.

The charuto´s sound is deep and not as dingling as a normal repinique. Played well it brings a totally beautiful soundscape to your bateria. The sound is somewhere between a repinique and a high pitched surdo, an absolutely unique frequency which comes through especially when playing calls and solo parts in the bateria.Stylish repique mor and typical IVSOM design with yellow galvanised hardware.Beautiful instrument with a present sound.The solid aluminium shell as well as all technical details are in well-established IVSOM quality.
