At our core, we take immense pride in crafting truly distinctive sounds for drummers and percussionists. Our expertise lies not only in designing our own original cymbals but also in revitalizing forgotten concepts that are no longer in production. By reimagining and refining these ideas, we bring them back to life, making them readily accessible once more.
Within a mere year of our launch, we shattered the industry mold by introducing groundbreaking innovations. We proudly unveiled the world's first-ever B20 triangle, finger cymbal, and a remarkable collection of unisex rings and bracelets. These remarkable creations not only exhibit exceptional craftsmanship but also showcase our relentless dedication to pushing boundaries and redefining what is possible.
Our creative process begins with a spark of inspiration. With a background spanning decades of live performances and studio work, I have had the privilege of witnessing, hearing, and discovering the very sounds that drummers yearned for—sounds that were often discussed but remained elusive, out of reach.
We set the stage for our artisans and I to collaborate and bring it to life. As a team, we meticulously analyze and brainstorm the most suitable structure and potential for the new model we envision.
After extensive discussions and rigorous testing, we arrive at a resounding conclusion. It is the culmination of our collective efforts, transforming a mere dream into a finished product. There is an unmatched sense of fulfillment in unveiling something that no one has ever seen or heard before.
At the core of our craftsmanship lies our commitment to utilizing B20, a unique metal alloy blend comprised of 80% copper and 20% tin, with traces of silver. This meticulously crafted composition ensures that every single item we create resonates with the most musical and captivating tones imaginable.
We take great pride in our artistry, where each cymbal undergoes a labor-intensive process of shaping and hammering by hand. This artisanal approach imbues every individual cymbal with its own distinct sound, character, and personality.
In addition to hand shaping and hammering, we also employ the art of hand lathe work, further enhancing the traditional cymbal style and sound that defines our craft.
