About this rhythm
The rhythm accompanies the dance of bilakoros(non-circumcized children). In some regions it’s played during the months before cicumcision.

After the village elders have decided the date of the circumcision, the imminence of this event must be announced.
For this reason, the children go from village to village to notify their relatives about the event.
When they arrive in each village, Soko is played.
