Description: The large Igogo deja was carved out of a single log and shaped like an antelope. It was 43" tall, the body 52" long, the tail 28" and the head 33". It was 42 and half wide, a total of 9 foot 5 and a quater inches long from tip to tail. The four legs were 10" tall, carrying the triangular sectioned body, sounding two notes, 56 and 48vs. one from either flank. The wooden 'slit drums' are in reality wooden gongs from which two or more tones can be produced according to the position of the blow. The two sides of the slit usually record two distinct tones when hit near the mouth of the slit. Blows in this position appear to be those usually employed when sending messages or signals. For dancing, lighter tones can be produced by striking the upper ends of the drum, and deeper notes by hitting low down on the body of the drum nearer the waist. This recording is of a part only of the dance already in progress. Dance with large Igogo deja slit drum and 2 small Igogo tade slit drums.

Description: The story of an elephant who was given a child to liik after. "I have brought up so many children, that is easy, leave it to me" said the elephant. So he took the child away into the thick bush. When evening came she called the elephant to bring the child back. But there was no reply. So she went home to tell her husband and to collect the men to come and help her find the elephant. They came straight away, found the footprints of the elephant and followed them into the bush singing to the elephant as they went. At this point the recording ends without the denouement, so we shall never know if she got her child back or not. Whenever the word or refrain 'Samanyemba' is used in a Karanga song it is usually associated with decit. It appears that Samanyemba was the father of all liars - men were deceivers ever. Story song.
