Drum Ecstasy is a live band that plays heavy dance music using various bass guitar sounds, supported by a massive background of three and more drummers. In some compositions electric drills and saws noises and sound effects are used. In average Drum Ecstasy performance lasts 40-90 minutes, often slides and videos are shown as well.
There is also another way of sounding (European percussion instruments + industrial percussion). This variant is often used during shows and presentations.
For big shows 2 additional drummers with 18' 'and
20'' + percussion drums are invited. Not fewer than 4 members of
the band play drums simultaneously. The other two musicians use electrical
saws, electrical drills, carbon-dioxide fire extinguishers, barrels,
car discs and other industrial junk (which can be found at the nearby
junk yards beforehand) besides the drums. During performances with
flags, one of them works with a flag (traditional Italian technique)
and another with a searchlight.
