Recycled Musical Wares In Action

Could the noise we can create with the recycled musical wares (RMW) blend in with the real things being played by members of the Tugu Drum Circle?

We were there, at Tugu Peringatan off Jalan Parlimen, on 8th July to check that out. How did we do? Let the pictures do the talking.

Here are some of the regular members of the Tugu Drum Circle.



Shaker, Plastic Bumpers and Wooden Clappers in action. Strangers to one another till we started to go with the beat.


A little on a high note with the tin pan drums but having fun creating music is Darly's only objective.


How did I get to know this family from Bahrain? I allowed them to experiment with my RMW and we played towards a universal language.


Here is a new fan to RMW.


Looks like she is going to be a regular at Tugu Drum Circle.



If you think you are not into playing musical instrument, real or otherwise, you can still have fun with a circle of drummers as long as you can move with the beat. I heard that some belly dancers with their finger cymbals have done their hips tilting moves with the drummers.

Need some help and tips persuading your friends to start or join a circle? Let me show you some ways:

Our local drummers in the news. Hey, Teri from Bandar Sungai Long is in the spotlight.

No instrument, no RMW? Just put your hands together.

Raise fund with it!
