Xen harmonic Gamelan is a Detroit-based sextet that takes a contemporary DIY approach to gamelan music. Many of the instruments are home made but functional. The five- seven- and 41-tone tuning systems are the brainchildren of bandleader, Clem Fortuna.

The music is inspired as much by gamelan music as it is by minimalism,microtonalism and contemporary classical. The results are simultaneously relaxing yet engaging.
