About the group: D'Drum’s signature sound fuses traditional Balinese gamelan textures with African polyrhythms, Persian musical idioms, and modern Western jazz. The ensemble has a storied history, including the Dallas Symphony Orchestra premiere of the 35-minute World Percussion concerto Gamelan D'Drum (February 5, 2011) and its European premiere at the Royal Academy of Music in London (July 2012). A PBS short film spotlighted the project, contributing to Emmy-winning recognition tied to Copeland’s initiatives. Their discography centers on thoughtful, rhythm-forward releases such as Village Beside Time (2009) and Within You Without You (2009), both on Unicornucopia Records. In 2025, their latest single, Thank You God, features DDRUM & DJ X One, marking continued creative output and cross-genre collaboration.
