Brazilian samba instrument maker Contemporanea has a reputation for quality, they make some of the best samba musical instruments for the Brazilian Beat.Traditional bass drums (“bombos”) became “surdos,” strapped to the waist of a marching player, Snare drums morphed into “repiniques” (a slightly longer, high-pitched drum with no snare/strings) and the 14” drums became “Malacachetas,” another type of small drum for percussion sections.
