About Us

Our History

Established in 2020, Percussion Store began its operation coincidentally when the country closed its doors to live music. During the height of the MCO, we faced trials that challenged our stability, but we remained optimistic with our VMC Series of online concerts held in our old store at Jalan Panggong.

After weathering the storm and relocating to our current location in Kota Damansara, we have thrived not only as a retail and rental outlet for custom mallets and instruments but also as a vibrant music platform for local musicians. Our evolution from VMC to the PS Hall has opened new opportunities for those who share our passion for Malaysian percussion.

Our Vision and Mission

We continue to serve the needs of percussionists alike, from students to professionals: schools to community ensembles; classical to contemporary.
