   About Gamelan-X
Gamelan X world music ensemble presents dynamic, original music for concerts and dance events. We draw our primary inspiration from Indonesian music, especially the Beleganjur, the traditional Balinese marching gamelan. We are also inspired by Balkan, African, Indian and American traditions (among others). We aim to combine complex interlocking rhythms and sinewy melodies into a visceral groove experience that excites and entrances our audiences. You can purchase our CD and download free mp3 clips of every track here:

Thanks for doing such a good job blowing up the Shady Grove stage on Sunday night. It was my favorite set of music at the festival.
I can't wait to see you at the burn!

Hey, we want to help out with all the shit you're doing. We think you're awesome. We think your uncompromising stand against authority, against tyranny is inspiring. We want to help.



Invite us to wade through teargas with you, or break through police lines, to create a distraction while you rob a bank to redistribute the wealth in the name of the Cause. Invite us to help tear down the walls of oppression -- understand that it is totally okay if you mean this literally.

Trash Orchestra is a marching percussion band -- a bone-shaking recycled orchestra. We make percussion on tuned cans, hubcaps and barrels, drums, pieces of sheet metal, and homemade oddities.

More advance notice is better and maybe some help getting and staying there. But we are game to consider anything.

We'd love to do what we can to support your efforts.

Photos, audio, rants, etc at www.trashorchestra.org

Cheers!

Santa Cruz Trash Orchestra
