In Indonesia end of June or begin of July is a new year phase for students. So a lot of festivals for celebration for every school, including pre-elementary school.

After gone due to off pandemic, festivals school coming back this year. I’m taking part as a volunteer for this festival’s pre-elementary school near my village.
Let me introduce the drum band group which is half of the music of their instruments come from the trash. Yes, that’s true. Old paint bucket, biscuit tin, a barrel of water even used gallon.
Even though this festival is for kindergarten kids but seems everybody looks so happy. This is cheap but lively entertainment. Dance on the street together.

How about the quality of sound music?
In my personal opinion, I don’t have any problem with the music, sounds pretty good and I can still recognize that’s music even though I know only using half-real music instruments.
By the way, the group music name Is drum****blek AKACI, they did not use the word drum band, because this is not a group drum band. Drumblek is meaning instrument music comes from tin or trash/ reusable tools. The cost of this music is almost free, our kindergarten kids collect all trash that is can use as a musical instrument. Some kids bring tin cones from their fav cookies, and other kids bring a paint bucket, etc.
We realize keep our earth is our duty together. Our children have begun since right now. We are serious about it.
It’s not only about trash anyway still we have a creative team behind these festivals. The costume team and the team should be practice also a couple of times. This is a real drum band I think or a new group drum band or something like that.
So tell us what you think about their performance?
Apologies for fewer photos cause I’m on duty during this event. I have 3 minutes of videos for details about this music.
