Details & care
Bring the Sound of the Ocean into Your Hands
The Yunicrafts Double-Sided Ocean Drum brings the sound of the sea indoors. Tilt it slowly, and hundreds of beads roll across the drumhead like waves on a shore.
It recreates up to 80% of real ocean wave sounds. Use it for deep sleep, creative focus, or a few quiet minutes of mindfulness.
A Double-Sided Design: Sound & Vision
Unlike traditional drums, the Ocean Drum has a double-sided design that combines acoustic depth with visual artistry:
- Front Side (Natural Sumatran Goat Skin): Crafted from premium, ethically sourced Sumatran goat skin. This natural membrane provides a thick, warm, and elastic tone, well suited to traditional hand-drum rhythms.
- Back Side (Transparent Visual Membrane): A high-clarity synthetic skin designed for visual ASMR. Watch hundreds of beads roll like waves. This transparent window lets you see the sound โ a calm, hypnotic effect.
Craftsmanship & The โDual-Beadโ System
- Solid Black Walnut Body: The frame is carved from high-quality Black Walnut wood, known for its hardness and distinctive grain.
- Exclusive Dual-Bead Acoustic System: A precise mixture of steel beads and plastic beads creates a rich, layered soundscape. Steel provides the crisp โcrashโ of breaking waves; plastic adds the soft โrushโ of flowing water.
- Durable & Sealed: Reinforced with decorative sealing tape and a special protective coating to prevent cracking.
Sound Healing & Brainwave Entrainment
The slow, repetitive rhythm of the Ocean Drum helps guide the brain from alert Beta waves to relaxed Alpha and Theta states. Well suited to:
- Deep Sleep & Insomnia Relief: A slow, steady sound to fall asleep to.
- Meditation & Yoga: Use the sound as an anchor for mindfulness and breathwork.
- ASMR & Content Creation: Capture high-fidelity natural sounds for videos or podcasts.
- Musical Performance: Adds a unique textural layer to live music, suitable for ambient, world, and new age genres.
How to Play: Two Instruments in One
- Ocean Mode (Tilt): Hold the drum horizontally by the edges. Slowly tilt it back and forth. Control the speed to create anything from a gentle stream to a powerful storm.
- Drum Mode (Strike): Flip to the goat skin side and use your hands to strike traditional percussive rhythms. The internal beads add a shimmering โshakerโ texture to every beat.

Please Note:
The front surface is made of 100% natural animal skin without chemical bleaching. You may notice slight variations in color (yellowing, dark spots), natural scars, pores, hair roots, or growth lines. These are not defects. Natural skin often provides a more stable, warm, and durable sound over time compared to synthetic alternatives. If you prefer perfectly uniform, artificial textures, this natural instrument might not be for you.
