Ludwig is one of the very best drummers in Timba. He has a unique style in that he plays only drumset, without the usual timbale kit to his left. Thus, he leaves all the bell and clave parts to his timbalero Herlan, while Ludwig himself plays in an almost funk style. This contibutes greatly to the powerful and distinct sound of Bamboleo's rhythm section. Catch Ludwig live if you possibly can. [Kevin Moore]
