Krakebs

Krakebs are heavy iron castanets that play an important rhythmic role in Moroccan Gnawa music. In a Gnawa performance, rhythms and melodies repeat and repeat until musicians and audience, hypnotized by the music, enter a trance-like state.

RhythmsoftheEarth.com reminds us that “there is more to krakebs than meets the eye.”
