The original video in the suggestions indicated that it was filmed in Indonesia. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wb7bb_hcUZI

When I searched "Indonesian street music" in Google this was the first result: http://www.multiculturalmedia.com/page.php?page=83

It says that music performed by wandering musicians in the streets and marketplaces of densely populated cities is called siteran barangan (or cokekan or simply siteran).

I hope this helps!

that helps a ton, thanks!

Adding to what was said above, the primary instrument is probably a gamelan.

Like said before, gamelan. Or, busking, if you mean the larger sense of musicians playing on the street.
