About Drumscapes:

Tradition meets innovation meets cutting edge technology.
Traditional instruments and rhythms from around the world are brought together with 21st Century performance tools, live audio processing and sound manipulation in a truly unique and innovative delivery. All instruments are played, sampled, mixed & processed live on stage in a synthesis of traditional musicianship and live electronics.

The result is Drumscapes – a unique blend of rhythmic soundscapes, bouncy world rhythms & high energy drumming.
