ive found this interesting as an idea for some time and wondered what you folks think of it, if you can recommend some other drummers to listen to. there must be maybe a few really world class drummers who sometimes play with crappy sounding cymbals or even modified household item instruments because thats the sound they were going for. i did discover through youtube a really good drummer from new zealand called Simon Hinton who seems to more less fit that description, and he sounds fantastic. ive always admired the if it makes a noise ill hit it no matter what attitude. more of a punk attitude i guess.
edit: i thought id ask this as i was playing today and realised an undeniable fact. i actually really like the sound of the stock cymbals that came with this cheap kit. theyre so stock that they dont even have a top or bottom. theyre just two thin sheets of brass with a tiny bit of lathing.
the crash that came with it is just terrible though apart from playing the bell as a ride its just about tolerable
