Hang Massive - The Hang Drum specialists

Hang Massive is a duo that comprises Danny Cudd and Markus Johannason. Before we get into what they are all about we need to know what a Hang is.
Simply put, A hang (or Hang drums) is a musical instrument that has a single center tone with seven/eight tone fields hammered around it. Technically speaking, the Hang Drum uses the same principles as a steel pan.
Now about Hang Massive. Like I mentioned earlier Hang Massive is a Hang Drum playing duo that capitalizes on the beauty of the Hang Drum. The duo started back in 2010 and has been gaining worldwide recognition. Their compositions are beautiful and soothing. I stumbled upon them by accident on You Tube and have been a fan ever since I have heard them.
It is quite amazing what these guys can do. The kind of songs they play will literally soothe your savage beast. All you need to is close your eyes and give these guys a listen. Their songs have some really beautiful rhythmic melodies going on and it will grasp your attention from the start. The songs they compose are going to invade your head slowly and steadily causing a stir like never before.
The Hang drum is slowly becoming a worldwide phenomenon and these guys have done an exquisite job on the instrument. Picture yourself at a serene location, turn their music on and close your eyes. Their music will take you to a place of resounding calmness and peace. It is this kind of music that makes you feel at peace with yourself and if you're in one of those emotional moods it is sure to cause a few tears trickling down from your eyes.
