疯 － Spirit; to portray an exhilarating and awe-inspiring display to astound and captivate our audiences
峰 － Peak; the mastery of one's technique fused with passion in order to deliver.

DRUM FENG’s logo represents the drumming philosophy of DRUM FENG and is derived from combining 3 different Chinese characters all pronounced as “FENG”.
The First "Feng" means Wind, which transits to Motion; the belief in precise movement and synchronization.
The second "Feng" means Peak; the mastery of one's technique fused with passion in order to deliver.
The third and Final "Feng" means Spirit; to portray an exhilarating and awe-inspiring display to astound and captivate our audiences.
