VOLTES V: LEGACY – A former taxi driver captured the attention of netizens after playing the theme song of the television fantasy series using an improvised drum set.

An improvised drum set refers to a collection of unconventional objects or materials used to create a makeshift drum set. Instead of traditional drums and cymbals, everyday items such as biscuit cans, buckets with holes, pot lids, and other household objects are repurposed to produce drum-like sounds.

These improvised drum sets are often used by musicians who may not have access to standard drum kits or who want to explore unique sounds and textures. They offer a creative and resourceful approach to percussion, allowing musicians to experiment with different tones and rhythms using readily available objects.
