Where Our Stories Begin

Kisah Warisan Kita is a storytelling series that celebrates Kuala Lumpur’s living heritage – the people, crafts, spaces and everyday rituals that shape the city’s character. Through videos, written features and maps, each episode invites audiences to rediscover KL through a different lens: one rooted in its cultural and community heartbeat.

This project is created in partnership with ArtsFAS and Yayasan Hasanah, whose support enables these stories to be shared with wider communities.

    Sounds Of The City
    This episode explores KL's diverse soundscape – from traditional echoes to the vibrant voices of street buskers and the city's evolving live music scene. 
    Beyond The Frame
    From temple grounds to hidden laneways, Kuala Lumpur hums with a living soundtrack of heritage and reinvention. At its heart, Kombo Budaya DBKL bridges past and present – reinterpreting traditions for a city that is always in motion.
    From LRT platforms to the pavements of Kuala Lumpur, buskers and street musicians shape the city’s everyday rhythm – turning fleeting moments into shared experiences, and keeping its musical spirit alive in the open.
    From intimate listening rooms to late-night sets, Kuala Lumpur’s live music scene thrives on connection. For performers like Ronnie, venues such as Jao Tim and Bobo KL offer the space to shape sound, share stories and bring audiences into the moment.
