Playing the Spacedrum

The hang (pronounced “hung”) is a percussion instrument made by PANArt in Bern, Switzerland. The Spacedrum is a brand of handpan made by the French company Metal Sounds. In this video, Yuki Koshimoto plays the Spacedrum. Yuki has a channel on YouTube where you can listen to more of her music.

If you liked listening to the Spacedrum, here’s a longer tune. In this video, the camera follows Hang Massive duo Danny Cudd and Markus Johansson. The music is played on two hanghang (plural of hang). The song is OMAT ODAT (acronym for One Moment At a Time, One Day At a Time) from their CD As It Is.
