Baikoko grew directly out of the latter from which it inherited the long msondo drum, shakers and mabuyu, kind of trumpets originally made out of gourds. To the original drum line-up Baikoko added an array of dogole, three bass-type drums, that guide the dancers.
Baikoko hupigwa na vifaa kama Msondo (aina ya ngoma ndefu), manyanga, mabuyu, dogole (ngoma kubwa ambazo zinaongoza wachezaji)
