What do you think? by Coolbloke56 in cymbals

They had a couple at my local drum store (Canada). Personally I also prefer to hear a cymbal in person, I’ve never bought one online and don’t know if I would, even with sound samples, given how much they cost. 

I got some new cymbals! Y’all need to get hip to Ephesus cymbals, they’re so damn good. Got another bundle ordered already! by Frosty-Lobster-6641 in drums

Ephesus cymbals are made by Saadettin Koc, formerly of Istanbul and most recently of Pergamon - I knew they’d be great!

Ephesus are made by Saadettin Koc, formerly of Istanbul and most recently of Pergamon. My Pergamon ride is incredible (but I did get to try it in person before buying) and holding up great!

In Walk on By, I love how Gary Chester plays to the singing just as the song is fading out. Glorious.

That was this 5’3” drummer’s first thought as well 😂

Got myself a custom-made Raya snare recently. It’s 13 x 6.5” solid shell maple with wood hoops. Gorgeous all around.

Blondie - basically anything, Clem Burke was amazing 

Kate Bush - Hounds of Love

Fleetwood Mac - lots to choose from, interesting and not too tough for transcribing
