In my humble, however naive, opinion, I think the standard drum kit setup is getting old and stale.
I read an article in Modern Drummer 3 or 4 years ago on Zach Hill. I'm not sure how often he uses this kit, but he has a kit that's basically just trash drums with a hi-hat, ride and sheet metal cutouts for cymbals. His reason for doing so was that he is interested in expanding the drum kit and shaping the future.
What are some of your ideas for progressing the drum kit?
Are there alternative percussive instruments you use or would like to incorporate?
I, myself, have been working on creating a trash can tom, similar to the "trash kat", but I want to move beyond using recycled items, pots/pans and basically garbage.
