DRUM ECSTASY is a unique musical project, an unprecedented power of sound defined by the band's compositions and instruments. Four musicians playing steel-shelled drums create a sound that explodes the audience right from the very first beats. The band is a frequent guest on various shows and at presentations.
Drum Ecstasy also has another sound - hard dance music. Three drummers backed by a massive wall of bass wired through a string of arrangements, samples, and electronic percussion. For some compositions, electric saws and drills are used to create acoustic and visual effects. An average Drum Ecstasy performance lasts for 40-80 minutes.
For large shows, we invite two additional drummers with 18" and 20" drums, plus percussion. No fewer than four band-members play drums simultaneously. Apart from drums, the other two musicians also use electric saws, drills, carbon-dioxide fire extinguishers, barrels, car brake-discs, and other industrial junk (which can be found beforehand in nearby junkyards). During performances with flags, one of them brandishes the flag (a traditional Italian technique) while the other shines a searchlight.
