Musical instruments are an essential part of a culture and its foundations. A material instrument that lets us touch the immaterial, bridging the gap between the physical body and the soul.

In the past, musical instrument were fundamental in religious ceremonies, agrarian festivals, seasonal rituals and the rites of the human lifecycle. Archeologists suggest music may have helped to maintain bonds between larger groups of humans, and that this may have helped the species to expand both in numbers and in geographical range. These larger social networks, bonded by music rituals, might of have provided a competitive advantage over the Neanderthals.

As human civilizations around the world based their rituals, festivals, culture and calls to war, with music as a fundamental way to envoke emotion and unity, so shalll the rising Bitcoin civilization.

THE NEW BITCOIN CIVILIZATION WILL HERALD THE CHANGE IN THE WORLD PARADIGM WITH IT´S VERY OWN MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS.

Like the music that was played to destroy the walls of Jericho, music played with these instruments will lead to the falling of the walls of Fiat.

The oldest musical instruments to be found were woodwind and percussion instruments.

A secret message is hidden within the drum.

Made in collaboration with Rafel Moll, an experienced Mallorcan tamborì builder.
