What is an Asalato / Kashaka?
• Origin & Style: It is a traditional West African percussion and rhythm instrument (also called a patica or cas-cas).
• How It Works: Each pair consists of two hollow spheres connected by a string or strap. You hold one ball in your palm and swing, click, and shake the other ball around your hand to create polyrhythmic beats and rattling sounds.
• Material: Typically made from durable plastic, PVC, or natural gourds, and filled with small steel beads, seeds, or sand.
