About Us
What was in the beginning?
In early 2000, I saw my first handpan at an ethical festival. I was captivated by its celestial sounds and beautiful form. But most of all, I was inspired by the fact that with no skill or preparation at all, every person who got one could instantly play beautiful music!
I believe that now, with so much focus on technological change and advancements, music accessible for all to play and enjoy is necessary for balance, expression, and connection in our lives.
That's how our experiments started - we were working to make an alternative to hanging pans with small weight and size. This alternative would be more portable, less fragile, and, what is really important, more affordable, with a good quality of sound and professionally tuned.
We envision these modern drums as the everyday instrument of the 21st century, affordable for everyone who wants to play music and experience the pleasure of free-flowing creativity without long study. We also combine them with our mission - to take people on healing and meditative journeys, promote connection with the Self, tap into creativity, and forget the routine of everyday life. It's our mission to share these unique drums with the world.
Handmade UFO Drums collection
Since 2013, we’ve been thoughtfully creating these instruments in Bali, the Island of Gods, where nature and spirituality are part of everyday life and have influenced our handmade UFO Drums collection.
It was an evolutionary process of modifying the shape and perfecting each unique sound combined with a team that we are very proud to be part of.
And we met a lot of great talented people participated this project in different periods, helped us a lot to build the dream, which works also a good sign for us – means that we are working on a Right mission.
ECO-FRIENDLY PRODUCTS
Later on we launched production of vegan UFO bags. Upcycled car inner tubes from outside and handmade Javanese batik inside. We wanted to create the bags that are made in purpose that affects our environment in positive way and makes lives of customers a bit more stylish.
During the past 8 years of the UFO drums production we travelled a lot meeting new amazing people and shared our experiences. We had a dream to connect all those artists and their wonderful unique and sustainably made products. And here is it – we created UFO store where you can choose goods that we trust and use in our everyday lives. We chose authorship, kindness and eco-friendly materials as opposed to mass market , tons of plastic and product oriented businesses.
We glad that you choosing convenient and conscious shopping with us! Let’s make difference together!
