THE SPACE GAMBUS EXPERIMENT
A 30-minute performance of versatile and enigmatic sounds by The Space Gambus Experiment. This 10-person band is a confluence of the traditional -- the Malay Gambus (Oud), guzheng, rebab -- and modern electro-acoustic sounds.

"The Space Gambus Experiment masterfully straddles the gap between the traditional and the contemporary in modern Malaysian music." - Yusuf Martin

Zulkifli Ramli (gambus/oud), 
Nurhanim Khairuddin (guitar/noise ambient),
