Remo Belli's Mylar drumhead, introduced in the late 1950s, ended the era of calfskin and made drums that stayed in tune through weather and travel. The company went on to build world percussion with synthetic shells and heads — djembes, frame drums, and the tunable Roto Toms — and remains the largest drumhead maker in the world.

Hand percussion · United States
Squeezing the cords between the two heads raises the pitch mid-stroke, letting the drum follow the tones of speech — which is what gives the family its name across Yoruba, Hausa, and Wolof traditions.
