I just wondered what you people who owns Export EX drum-kits thinks about them.. I'm considerating to buy a Export EX-kit and i need positive or negative feedback so you guys can let me know if the kit is worth the money..
This is an interesting percussive instrument. I haven't been able to find too many of these around, and this is the one that I usually see for a relatively cheap price. According to the people I've discussed and my own attempts at playing the pandeiro, I must say that I think this one is pretty good. Many people seem to confuse these things with...
In the market for a new double bass drum pedal i borrowed my buddies’ Pearl Eliminator Demon Drive Bass Drum Pedal. This pedal is no beginner pedal, it is expensive and is meant to be used incombination with a skilled drummer who knows what he or she is looking for in a set and wants to get something that fits to his or her need...
I am not going to lie, I am a huge Police fan, especially of Stewert Copeland and how he integrated so many different rhythms into contemporary rock reggae of western world. I love his jazz influences and I always felt as a player, he and I both shared similar views of style and rhythmic approach. About 2 years ago I saw these ...
Pearl doesn’t disappoint so long as you don’t set your sights on perfection. I owned a mid 1980s pearl export series back in the mid 1990’s and it was absolutely fantastic back then. If I was going to use that same set today, I wouldn’t be so amazed. Likely because in the last 15 years or so, drum shell manufacturing has become much less vari...
This is a snare that I was not expecting to like very much at all. I was involved in a studio recording with one of these snares, and I first tried to not use it. I have been let down by Mapex before, but in 2010 I helped my nephew setup a Mapex set and liked the stock snare. I figured it was a one-off, because back in 2005 I played a Mapex s...
I was recently shopping for a beginner set for my nephew. He seems like the kind of ten year old that will not give something up easy. That’s important for a drummer, because giving up the drums is a pain, not to mention expensive to purchase and depreciated value is astronomical. To minimise risk, I decided to focus on cheaper, common drum s...
I have the other 2 sizes, 6” and an 8”, and these three are an awesome addition to any drummer looking to play progressive rock music, Latin, jazz, anything with world instrumentation. Also, these are great if you are into world music and looking to broaden your percussion approach from beyond the typical “jazz setup” drum throne. <br ...
This is a review of the 8” remo roto tom I purchased as a 3 piece set featuring the 6”, 8”, and 10”. I love this remo 8” roto tom because it embodies all the necessities of a good tom, without the high costs typical in creating a typical octobon or tom-tom shell. As with the 6”, it is light, maneuverable and goes well when paired with the 6 an...
This is a review of the 6” remo roto tom I purchased as a 3 piece set. I love this remo 6” roto tom because it embodies all the necessities of a good tom, without sticking to the fundamental rules and playing the old systematic ways of creating a typical octobon or tom-tom shell. It is light, it is maneuverable. This is a great asset for me b...
