Malaysian rock drummer Raja Azreen Raja Talib dies after collapsing mid-performance during a live set at the Teruntum Rock Festival. He was performing on stage with his band, Meditasi, when he suddenly falls over his drum kit. Onstage efforts to revive him do not succeed, and he is carried off after the incident.
Multiple reports describe the collapse as sudden while he is actively performing. Times of India adds context from family comments, saying he was 56 and had recently been diagnosed with diabetes and had heart-related issues. His brother also points to extreme fatigue as a possible contributing factor. The New York Post focuses on the onstage collapse and death but does not add the same details about prior health conditions.
Authorities or medical officials are not identified in the provided reports, and no official cause of death is stated. The accounts agree on the timing and setting—during the Teruntum Rock Festival—while differing on the amount of background information about his health.
