Not sure of the origin, but this sounded like a cross between Mystère's Taïko and Dralion's Bamboo - Needless to say this was a percussion song that, for me, turned out to be the highlight of the show. During this onslaught of every performer pounding away on drums and running around like they were possessed, I realized that one of the signature trademarks of all Cirque du Soleil shows is the appearance of a percussion number. La Nouba has an actual trap set drum solo, Quidam has the performers playing various sized drums, one of Varekai's Georgian Dancers pounds on his own personal drum, and so on. It is only fitting that a show featuring the music of Cirque incorporates the most intense Cirque percussion number right in the middle of the concert.
